Book Review: Evidence that Demands a Verdict
I’m fairly certain I went to Seminary because God knew who my child would be. The questions that he asks day after day after day are astounding to me. This book helps. A lot.

This is part five of a multi-part series for women on how to study the Bible on your own. You don’t need a book, a Bible study, or someone else’s opinion: you need a Bible and the Holy Spirit.
You’ve heard these verses, and read them on your own, countless times. How do you dig a little deeper?
But the why is why people are afraid to dive into Scripture on their own. Don’t be! You can do this! If the verse itself doesn’t tell you why it’s in the Scriptures (like I Chronicles 26:3, for example), a verse near it will (I Chronicles 26:19).
One caveat, here, sisters: do not just drop open your Bible, point your finger, and say, “This! This is what I’ll study!” It doesn’t really work that way.
How does a woman study the Bible for herself? Part one of my new series begins today!

There are movie theaters that are banning children from certain showings. The Whole Foods in Missouri has child free shopping hours. The debates have raged online… Continue reading We Live in a Selfish World
A friend of mine gave birth to a precious baby boy last October. In March, she said she still didn’t feel “normal,” and that she has heard it takes a year after giving birth to feel like yourself again. Obviously I didn’t give birth…so I wonder how long it takes for adoptive mommies? When I… Continue reading How Long?
So…Little Man is generally fussy, not eating his solids very well (except yogurt), still taking formula fine, and waking up fussy from naps and bedtimes. Our air conditioner bit the dust and it’s over 80 degrees in our house…plus it’s really humid outside (and over 90 degrees, even now at 8pm!). We don’t know if… Continue reading Calling Experienced Mommas!
