Yesterday I asked you all to join us for a day of prayer and fasting on Tuesday. Perhaps many bloggy friends have never fasted before. Over the years I have received many emails from folks who have begun to make fasting a regular discipline in their lives and they are so grateful for how the…

I received a precious email the other day from a bloggy friend. She had been praying that we would have another day of prayer {and fasting} soon. She and her family were in the midst of one of the most difficult times that anyone could ever imagine and she knew that prayer and God’s grace…

The other night, I was home alone with the little ones. Our youngest six. And when I went to tuck the little boys in, I couldn’t help run and grab my camera… they were howling with laughter. They had climbed up on Graham’s bunk and were giggling about something that had struck them so funny…….

Many of you will remember back in February when we shared about Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani in Ir*n.

Some days it just is so hard to live far away from big kids. I know lots of you know what I mean. When we were going to bring Nehemiah home forever we needed to tell our three biggest and their spouses. But the problem was that one was deployed and on the opposite side…

Disclaimer: Please forgive my long delay in posting his name. I intended to write this and post this morning, but situations wouldn’t allow it. I’m so sorry. And on with the post… We sure have had fun reading all your ideas. Actually many, many, many of them were names that were on our ‘short…

Last year, on May 7th, I wrote a post entitled, “Once Upon a Time”. …telling the funny story of how Dw came to find out my name after he invited me on our first date. Since guessing names has been in our family history for over 36 years, we were talkin’ and gigglin’ that it…
