Seminary Reading

I discovered a website where the seminary program in Media and Worship Arts that I've longed to go to for years lists their syllabi. I am going from class to class, finding the required reading, and adding it to my Amazon. So much fascinating material on the intersection of Christianity and creativity! Reading these books … Continue reading Seminary Reading

Submission Brings Blessings

Submitting to your husband isn't always easy, but living the way God designed brings blessings. Although my husband and I have a lot in common, we still do not agree on everything. There have been calls he made that I did not think were best. But in these situations, blessings have always come from following … Continue reading Submission Brings Blessings

Staying Silent While My Husband Speaks for Me

I love it when I don't have to give my order to the server because he speaks up for me.

Digital Art Journaling

They are a blend of scrapbooking supplies, collage cut outs I've made, digital stickers, and textures added in Procreate. I am doing everything I can to get myself on an upswing. Nothing fancy or professional, but making them is helpful.

New Church

We ended up trying a new church this morning because our church was shut for the Fall retreat we didn't go on. We went to a church far away, because it was the denomination we wanted, which is hard to find. When I tell you this church was wonderful, it lacked nothing. The service was … Continue reading New Church

On the Mend

I was physically and mentally not feeling well last week. Then my inlaws arrived last Thursday. So between physical illness, Bipolar, and my inlaws coming to visit, I have been too wrapped up to write here. It has been a very hard week. This weekend I am doing better physically. I went to church and … Continue reading On the Mend
