On Friday I spoke to the Kingsville Divas group about the life of Hagar and even though it wasn’t the focus of my message, I felt so strongly to do a Facebook live to compel someone who was running from God to consider his love and a few wrote to let me know they needed that reminder.
When my kids were little, we went through a lot of Band-Aids…I mean A LOT! Brandon loved to climb things, skateboard and do tricks on his BMX bike that often ended up in cuts, scrapes, gashes, and quite a few stitches. Poor Shelby’s a little clumsy like her momma, so
Then Simon Peter drew a sword and slashed off the right ear of Malchus, the high priest’s slave. ~John 18:10 NIV LIVING A LITTLE TOO FREE During Easter, it’s always great to read through the story of Jesus’ week of trial and crucifixion. It’s a great way to keep the focus on Christ and not […]
