Let me begin this introduction to say that I really love this girl. Over the past 18 years, we’ve prayed together, cried together, and laughed together until we’ve snorted. But what especially endears me to Amanda Walker is her ability to grapple with truth. Today’s post is no exception. She will have you grappling too. On April 25th, 2019 an …
What a delight this week to introduce Hungry For More readers to Magen Thetford. Magen is a passionately devoted young woman, who blends the messiness of marriage and motherhood with a massive love for God. In her humility, she doesn’t realize that her very life is speaking volumes toward a perseverant faith. I know that as you hear her heart, …
Today’s guest post is by my friend, Kelli Comley. I first met her several years ago at a conference, when she was obviously one of the youngest in attendance. Even as a high school student, Kelli’s passion to know Jesus was evident in the way her quiet personality blossomed as she spoke of Him. Now studying nutrition at Texas Tech …
By Hannah Persall Svebakken As a child, I knew my dad was for me. I knew he was proud of me. I knew he loved me. He regularly told me these things. He regularly talked with me and listened to me. I knew what was important to him and I knew he cared to know what was important to me. We …
What a delight to have guest blogger Carrie Vipperman join us again this week. While she juggles her family of five, a writing career, and all things Christmas, Carrie still takes the time to meditate on the depth of the holiday. She’s the real deal. I’m sure after reading you will agree. A few years ago on a Sunday in December, our children …
This week, Hartlee Kirk sums up her series on simplicity by showing us how this extends to those around us. I love how she gives us the freedom to “wear” our simplicity according to our personality. What a blessing a few simple steps can extend to so many! Thanks, Hartlee. —————————- Simplicity can bless anybody, but looks different for …
Hartlee Kirk’s guest post rang true today as I watched my fellow train travelers. Eighty-five percent had their head in their phones with a percentage of the rest taking photos of themselves. No, the trip wasn’t a commuter train underground, but amidst some of the world’s most breath-taking mountains: the Swiss Alps. Thanks for reminding me to worship facing my Creator, …
I always wondered why my mother-in-law had an extra closet full of stuff she never wore and now I know! Thanks, guest blogger Hartlee Kirk for inspiring me to do a little spring cleaning in the fall! Bright white walls, a single firm couch without throw pillows, lackluster empty space. This is not my living room, nor do …
Guest blogger Hartlee Kirk is returning this month for a series on Simplicity. I’m always encouraged by her fresh words, simply served and lived. Join me as we seek refreshment in our lifestyles and outlook. Returning from an afternoon of shopping, you hear the sound of sirens growing louder. Turning the corner, you can not see your house …
Hartlee Kirk‘s guest post reminds me not only of my early days of marriage, but of deep truths that ring true today as well. No matter where we are in the process of our marriage (or even other relationships), she makes us want to roll up our sleeves and get to work! As he peeled the rusty-orange shag carpet away, …
