Happy Birthday, gad38!

So, Lysa TerKeurst of Proverbs 31 Ministries, has published a new book, Unglued. I've barely started her first book, Made to Crave. Plus, the little that I had read about the new book didn't seem to apply to me, so I wasn't really interested in it.

However, I watched the free webcasts she held for the Made to Crave book, and so I decided to watch ( Read more... )

Earlier this year, I wanted to acknowledge and comment on some of the Proverbs 31 Daily Devotions. However, the one below needs very little commentary; I think most women struggle with this to some extent.

(I even own Renee Swope's book, A Confident Heart: How to Stop Doubting Yourself & Live in the Security of God's Promises; I just haven't read it ( Read more... )

Who knew that a person could get sunburned in October?!

Looks like I'll have to add an extension through

Announced by gad38 after the end of Sunday's season finale, which we watched tonight, of Drop Dead Diva, where, on Jane's (who is really Deb) wedding day, Grayson finally confesses his love to her, they kiss, Owen (Deb/Jane's fiance) catches them, has a heart attack, (presumably dies), and the "original" Jane comes back from Heaven in his body...

So, last night I finally finished reading the entire New Testament.
Sure, I had read several of the books and lots of passages here and there, but never the whole thing from cover to cover.

I started re-reading Matthew last March (2011) when I was going through some stuff, and it eventually led to a Hey, why don't I read the entire Bible? It's ( Read more... )

Recently, gad38 found out from a coworker about a brand new Air1 station in our area.

I was excited when I heard what kind of music they played b/c I've never been able to replace, or even come close, to 89.7 Power FM. So, gad38 and I tuned in on the way home from work, but we gradually lost reception as we got further away. I was disappointed that is ( Read more... )

I never really liked the Proverbs 31 Woman (Proverbs 31: refer to verses 10-31) because she seemed super-human. I mean, really, who can do all of those things?!

But a couple of months ago, I came across a Proverbs 31 Woman study by Courtney at Women Living Well. (I probably came across it from a link in a blog of one of the ladies who ( Read more... )

Awesome song! I've watched it over and over again. I love the music and I love the message; I've never heard it said that way before.

I discovered it yesterday while listening/watching Lecrae's music videos on the internet, and I discovered Lecrae from watching the videos on I Am SecondYou might be surprised to find that I like some hip-hop music ( Read more... )
