Remembering Mandy Kelly from Worshipful Living

Tuesday, March 21, started like any other day around our house. I got the kids off to school and came home to do some work.  Around 9:30 a member of our Facebook Mastermind Group (a group of about 10 Christian women bloggers that support one another through blogging and life) posted that she'd seen some chatter on Mandy's Facebook profile and wanted to see how we could pray for her.  It wasn't 20 minutes later that we all realized what was going on... Mandy, her husband Scott, and their … {Read More}

Who Does God Expect You to Be?

After we got back from camp on Saturday, the youth shared their testimonies with the church about what God did for them during the week. Q told them that he expected to hear what God did in their hearts, not how much fun they had. It was a joy to see them get up (some hesitantly, some crying) and give all honor, glory, and praise to the Father. Something was weighing on my heart the whole … {Read More}

Born-Again

I feel so out of the loop! We got home last night around 7pm from our mission trip. It was a great week of missions in South Carolina. We've come to realize that while on mission, nothing ever goes as planned! But, we do know that God's purpose and will was completed and our work was for His glory.One night I sat there thinking, "We aren't reaching these kids, nothing's going as planned, … {Read More}
