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…
Last Monday at 5:00AM, we headed out from Unity CRC in Prinsburg, MN, and drove the 11 hours to Stevensville, Michigan, for the Solid Rock Youth Group Mission Trip. Why our hometown? Because of the short amount of time we have been here and because most organizations need applications in at least by March, we…
I am always intrigued by what other people’s days look like. Why, I am not sure. I don’t feel the urge to be like them or have my days like their’s, but maybe it’s because there is a lot to learn about someone by how they live their everyday life. I guess that is why…
If you live in the north, I hope you’ve been able to experience some warmer weather! At the end of this past week, it was in the 50s, which for February, I will take any day! I honestly enjoy winter, but I have to admit, after having a child, and not being able to go…
I like to save every penny that I can – I wouldn’t necessarily call myself cheap, but frugal? Absolutely! With Cyber Monday just around the corner, did you know there is ONE more way that you can save money? And in fact, it isn’t just on Cyber Monday. You can get extra savings almost EVERY…
As a parent, we all have to ask ourselves: When to start solid foods? Rice or oatmeal? When to introduce peanut butter and honey? Not to mention, diapering. Cloth or disposables? How tight? What brand? How often? And that’s just diapers! Then there are car seats. Which one? When to make the switch from back…
I wore this t-shirt specifically for today, knowing that this is the truth we stand in today! We can look back and thank God for what he has already done in our lives and we can look forward and trust that he will continue to provide for us in the future too. Finished my first…

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!
