Titus 2:6-8 & Proverbs 20:7 “Do as I say and not as I do.” This statement frustrated me to no end when I was a child. You may not consider it, but children develop a sense of morality and fairness much earlier than you might think. I remember thinking to myself things like, “why is this thing okay for them but not for me?” Or “why should I have to do this when you never do?” Now that I have kids o...  Read More

2 Timothy 1:5 Generational impact is SO very important! How we choose to live out our faith WILL make an impact whether good or bad. The hope is that we choose to live out our faith in a Christ-like manner so that we can be that example to our children, our children’s children, and to others outside of our little church at home. I am the woman I am today because I watched both of my parents live o...  Read More

1 Samuel 2 I think we can all agree that enablement never leads to anything good.

In Proverbs 3:11-12, it says, “My son, do not despise the Lord’s discipline and do not resent his rebuke, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.” God sh...  Read More

Proverbs 22:6 Ever since I was a child, I knew that I wanted to be a mom. As I got older, I had a deep desire that I knew God had put on my heart to bear children. Our journey wasn’t easy, but I sit here writing this after putting my beautiful 8 month old son to bed.“Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.” Proverbs 22:6 NIVThis verse is...  Read More

Deuteronomy 6:4-9 I remember when I was younger my parents and the church we were in really pushed for us to memorize God’s Word! These verses say to “impress them on your children.” Knowing God’s Word is so important! This is one command that all Christian children should know! Love the Lord your God with all that you are! It is repeated many times in this passage to show how important it is to k...  Read More
