Healing Your Marriage When Trust is Broken

I have never met Cindy Beall in person but after following her blog and her tweets for the last few years I am absolutely certain that when we finally get to sit down for that long overdue coffee date I will just adore her. Cindy and her husband, Chris, speak openly about their difficult journey […]

A 2nd Question for You…

Last week I posed a question on here about boys and girls, men and women, friends forever or a recipe for disaster. The comments were fascinating. People told stories and shared opinions. A beautiful dialogue was created. So today I want to pose another series of questions on something that has been nagging at me […]

My Latest Reading Obsessions

Here is a quick run-down on a few books that have been keep me busy lately. 1. The Hunger Games – I started this book, which is the first of a three book series, two weeks ago. And I have already finished it. And I have finished Catching Fire, the second book in the series. And […]

The Voyage of Dawn Treader

While I was cruising last week, The Voyage of Dawn Treader, the latest theatrical release in C.S. Lewis’ The Chronicles of Narnia, came out on DVD. It is such an incredible film. I had the opportunity to see it on the big screen and can’t wait to watch it again in the comfort of my […]

Oh How We Lie

Lately I have noticed that we (yes, me too) sure tweet a lot of lies. We tweet a lot of untruths, falsehoods, fibs, fabrications, deceptions, inventions, pieces of fiction, falsifications, half-truths, exaggerations, and tall tales. Plainly, we tweet lot of crap. Call me a skeptic BUT was that sandwich REALLY the best thing you have […]

Somewhere we know that without a lonely place our lives are in danger.  Somewhere we know that without silence words lose their meaning, that without listening speaking no longer heals, without […]

On My Bookshelf

I have a growing stack of books on my bookshelf. It is getting so out of control that it is stressing me out and causing me to avoid reading all together. (I know that makes no sense, but sometimes I don’t make sense.) I continue to buy books that friends recommend, get freebies in the […]

The Countdown (And Download) Is On…

Christmas is just around the corner. Literally 45 days and counting…. (Where exactly does time go?) And now is the time to be downloading Christmas music so that you can start feeling all festive. I need to know. What Christmas album and/or song do you consider required listening? Here are mine, don’t judge. Album: Kenny […]

The Best Thing I’ve Read This Week

By far this is the best, the most-thought provoking thing that I’ve read all week. Since I first read Blue Like Jazz, I have appreciated Donald Miller’s voice, his humor, and his insight. I’ve credited his most recent book A Million Miles in a Thousand Years with changing the way I think. A few years ago, […]
