Successful (Not Stressful) Family Living

Fall is in the air. Gone are the sunny, carefree summer days. Replacing them is the activity-packed, responsibility-filled family schedule. A dozen or so years ago, I spoke to my friend on the phone, spilling concerns about fall’s packed calendar.

Stop Striving: Surrendering Brings Peace

Last week was a crazy week. I worked hard, striving to get things done. We got moved into our new house (yeah!), but my husband had to be out of town for work (boo!). I was excited about unpacking, and then I discovered Focus on the Family was coming to my house to tape videos… [Continue Reading]

When Saying No is the Best Thing You Can Do For Your Faith

One thing I’ve discovered is that when I’m too busy with too many things I turn to God for strength. He is faithful to provide it, but there is so much more of God that I’m missing out on. So much more of a relationship that only comes when I am still with Him. When… [Continue Reading]

40 Ways To Be Present in Your Child’s Day
