Have you ever been attacked? I’m talking about the kind of attack, where you’re going about your day as if nothing is out of the ordinary, and all of the sudden someone shows up and scares you to your core. They hold a gun to your head, and they make you question absolutely every decision you’ve made that day to …
I recently had the privilege- yes, I intend that word- to attend the funeral of a beautiful friend, whom I would never have the chance to meet. Her name was Sarah. She was a mom of three- her kid’s ages are similar to my three. She was a wife of 10 years- she passed just a few days shy of …
It’s been absolutely crazy around here as we condense 4300 square feet into what will be ONE Uhaul load across the country to Tennessee. It’s emotional, it’s exciting, it’s freeing, it’s stressful, it’s all the things. On the one hand, it’s been really wonderful to purge a lot of things that I don’t need to have in my life anymore. …
So it’s official! Thomas flew out to Tennessee last week with his dad to sign papers on Shalom farm! With only ONE minor mishap (that almost made it impossible for us to close- thank you Wells Fargo for not knowing how to notarize a Power or Attorney properly), we were able to make it happen!

About two years ago we put the first house we ever bought on the market. We have been so very blessed by God. Sometimes I don’t understand it. I often find myself just in awe of what He has done in my life… both before and since I’ve known Him. But alas, Thomas and I were ever so very blessed …

It’s a fair question, one I’ve been asked more than once, and in a word, the answer is yes. In three words, the answer is yes and no. It’s a fair question because if you knew me before I was married, you know that I was NOT a Christian. I was an Agnostic at best- only willing to admit that …
Last night, after 9:30pm, I had a missed call and a voicemail from a friend who doesn’t commonly call late. Her voice was shaking in the message and she said she had bad news… Heart sinks. How bad? To what degree do I prepare myself? Is someone hurt? Worse? Someone sick? Worse? Acquaintance? Friend? How bad is it? With a …
… the question is, is it a positive or a negative one? Everyday we make choices. We decide to smile at the barista at Starbucks, or avoid eye contact. We decide to say please, thank you, excuse me, or to hold open a door for someone. We decide to be rude. We decide to be short. We decide to let …
