Elisabeth Elliot was a missionary, author, and speaker, who exemplified a life of obedience, joy, and humbleness. I have read several of her books and listened to some of her speaking engagements and always walk away inspired in my faith. Have you read any of her books or listened to her speak?
And how about you? Who would you choose? And why? I’m eager to hear your thoughts…
I could not WAIT to get married! Not only was I looking forward to the wedding, but I literally could not wait to spend the rest of my life with my best friend. Dan and I, as different as we were, just worked. He was laid-back, I was uptight. He spent all he had, when…
I was at an appointment the other week and the lady asked how things were going with parenting. I said with a bit of relief, I felt like we were figuring things out and kind of have it together. She looked at me with almost a look of disgust, as I tried to back peddle…
I knew there was that one toy we just had to have. A toy vacuum. I know for some, it may be something completely different, but you know that “one” toy that you either had growing up or something you saw in the store and KNEW your child had to have it. Well, that was…
It sure is easy to put all of my time and energy into just one of my loves! Our daughter! Over the last 15 months, I have come to learn that when Dan and I are not on the same page, there is a lot that seems like it’s not on the same page either….
If you’re anything like me, I tend to pump the breaks HARD when I see something “new” on the market. I often think it’s just another ploy marketers are using to try and convince me to buy something, with no lasting value. That’s what I thought when it came to red light therapy; until I…
If you haven’t read my book, “A Heartbeat of Grace,” I have a shipment of books coming in this weekend! I would love to send or set aside a copy of it for you! With the holidays coming up, maybe you know someone who would be blessed by reading it. Or maybe you want to…

I admired Corie Ten Boom whose hid Jews during the war. She had such faith then and then when she and her sister went to some awful places. I enjoyed hearing speak. Such a humble woman.
YES! I want to read more of her writings! What an incredible testimony of God’s faithfulness that she lived out so boldly. Like you said, such a humble woman, but she made an eternal difference and continues to as well!
I would choose to be with my Grandma P. because she exuded love and grace while yet strongly enforcing rules of good behavior. She never verbally told me that she loved me but her eyes told me clearly that she did. Long after her death her next-door neighbor told me that Grandma was the”most Christian person I ever knew.” But Grandma never spoke aloud words of testimony–she lived it! Her old well-worn Bible rested on the kitchen table near to the three loaves of bread she had just baked from scratch, on the day she died at 103 years of age: a picture of her life “Ora et Labora.”
What a testimony of your Grandma’s faith! What you spoke was such an encouragement to me, to think about how I LIVE my life b/c that is what speaks loudly. She sounds like an amazing woman and I can’t wait to meet her in heaven! Thank you for your comment, Kerry!
