So it’s in. The Mirena. If someone says it will feel like a cramp, kick them. Uhm, yeah, maybe if you’ve had 4 babies and your insides are used to that sort of thing. If not, well, it feels horrible, painful and foreign. Sure, they were cramps… cramps around a red hot poker being jabbed [...]

Finality, Sort Of
(As an aside, this is really about me writing to clear my head, quiet the pounding of my heart and ease the jumpiness in my soul. Maybe you identify, maybe not. Immaterial, really. But, it is honest, and hard, and maybe, just maybe, something that you or someone you know is dealing with too.)
My husband [...]

What if that was THE thing everyone [...]

Getting the Pronoun Right
This Saturday, our small group will be discussing the rapture as part of our Revelation study. There are 4 views as to when the rapture will occur: Pre-tribulation, mid-tribulation, mid-wrath and post-tribulation. I have researched viewpoints and opinions on each for our discussion. While I may have some opinions and scriptures attributed to a certain [...]

According To Me
I’m reading “The Deity Formerly Known As God” by Jarrett Stephens right now. Very interesting book. The first part is debunking our incorrect perceptions of God, the characters that we see Him as that are not true. The second goes into accurate images. One of the first perceptions it goes against is Cop Around the [...]

I follow a lot of their blogs pretty regularly and really love their hearts and hard work, the dedication to excellence and to serving in their mission field (community). This is new church [...]
