Say It Enough, You'll Start to Believe It

Alternately titled: I didn’t know I could love baseball this much. The St. Louis Cardinals are the World Series Champions. You probably already knew that, but unless you’re from Missouri or Texas it likely didn’t mean much to you. Truthfully, not that long ago it wouldn’t have mattered much to me either. While I’ve always […]

I’ve got the memory of our amazing trip to Europe on my mind today. The beauty of God’s creation leaves me breathless and in awe. I can’t help but rejoice. The song is Creation Calls by Brian Doerkson (yes that’s me singing it acapella. I love the song…). The images are all from our trip. […]

We had the unique privilege last night to watch lives being forever changed when my cousin and her husband arrived home from Ethiopia with the two little boys they adopted. It was a party as a throng of people cheered, welcoming the boys into the family. A picture of grace. “But […]
[Continue reading...]“I’m sorry,” he says, over and over again. “Mom. I’m sorry.” This time his tone demands forgiveness. I don’t doubt the sincerity of his apology, but I do doubt the sincerity of his remorse.

It was 1999 and I was a senior walking beneath the cloud of new love. I didn’t have a ring on it yet, but it was only a matter of time (weeks, to be exact). We were headed to yet another Baylor Bears football game where we would talk and visit and only occasionally check […]
