FAQ

How do I study the Bible, other than just reading it? I get asked this a lot. There are lots of different ways. One way is by reading free text commentary by David Guzik on Blue Letter Bible. Before I go further, realize this is only commentary and not the Bible itself. Please weigh commentary against the Bible itself and see where the Holy Spirit leads you.
How do I pray scripturally? I use the SOAP method. This can also be used to understand the word better and apply it to your life. Here's a great blog post on how to do the SOAP method: How to SOAP

 What do I do if I have a question about the Bible? I usually go to Got Questions. Again, please weigh all of this against the Bible.

Curriculum Review & Homeschool Plans

Hey guys! This is going to be a combination review of our old curriculum and new curriculum plans all in one. So, it might be lengthy. But I’m just going to dive right in. Being that the last school year was my first year homeschooling, I chose a box set curriculum called Bookshark which is the secular version of Sonlight . This literature based curriculum comes in grade level packages with the school year planned out for you, which is why it’s so appealing. Looking back now, there were a lot of the pieces of curriculum that I liked. But the curriculum didn’t work for us overall, and a lot of it was my fault.

It became evident that this curriculum was not working for us the moment I noticed my boys were not thriving. We were spending way too much ti

The hardest part of saying goodbye

Losing my mom has been very eventful. My relationship ended on a good note with her, so I felt like I was okay. It was hard for me to cry, because knowing that she was saved means that she went to be with the Lord and that I would get to see her again. I had heard from others who knew her that she was up there doing hair and singing praises! I thought I would be mad at God, and I didn’t feel that way. When the dust settled, there were some feelings that I just couldn’t keep covered up anymore. I started to think selfishly. Why does this person not care about me? Why does it feel like that person doesn’t love me? The enemy is at work telling me that I’m a failure and that my mom was mad at me for all these different things. He wants me to feel guilty.   The Holy Spirit convicted me very quickly. Why don’t I show my affection and devotion to the Lord? Why am I not thankful for the things he has given me? He gave me life and purpose. (Romans 8:28) I cried and I pr

Yesterday I received the call that my mom went home to be with the Lord after 6 long years of battling kidney cancer. My loss is heaven's gain, and I know she's up there singing her heart out and praising the Lord. What a testimony of faith. I love you Mom. I always will. Prayers appreciated for our family!
