“Rejoice in that you see my Hand in all the happenings and the keepings of the day. Rely on this and go forward. These last few weeks have been the submerging before the consciousness of rescue. Go forward now and conquer. Go forward unafraid.”
These words lifted my spirits when I read them in [...]

For those of us that no longer have our earthly fathers with us, Father’s Day can tend to be somewhat melancholy. Each year when this day rolls around, I work hard at keeping my spirits up…..pretty much I just try not to think about it. My dad was a rather quiet person, so [...]

Beloved had an awesome opportunity recently that we are so excited about! We were asked to write a song for a faith-based movie called The Way Home. The song we were inspired to write has the same name as the movie,“The Way Home,” and is going to appear in the opening scene of [...]

Beloved has been quite busy the past few weeks. Two weekends ago we hosted our annual women’s retreat in Atlanta. That is always an amazing weekend where God shows up and shows off! We, and 200+ of our closest friends, took over the Hilton Atlanta Northeast and they didn’t know what hit [...]

I believe I heard a collective ‘YIPPEE’ coming from all the moms across the states for back to school and back to routine. For some moms, I’m sure it is a sad time having that little one go to kindergarten and wonder all day ‘how will they make it without me?’ I remember [...]

Are you watching the Olympics? I am watching every moment that I can! I just LOVE the Olympics, which is a little strange because I really do not consider myself a huge sports fan. I think I enjoy the Olympics so much because of the incredible stories of strength, courage, perseverance, endurance, [...]
