Part 5 in the WordWashedWife series on prayer is written by my youngest DIL, Becky. Keep reading as she describes a time when her prayers changed. “As I began to come to terms with the change in our future, I started to realize that my prayers probably weren’t focused on the right thing. Although I was praying, my prayers were me-centered, not God-centered.”
Today’s post is the 4th in a Word WashedWife series on prayer. I believe you will enjoy reading my DIL, Sarah’s words about a scary time in her marriage to my son, JP. Keep reading: “JP and I met during a time when we were both far from God. My walk with God was distant and he had rejected his faith. We started dating in the summer of 2010 and that fall I transferred and joined JP as an Auburn student. We were inseparable. “
Today’s post is the 3rd in a WordWashedWife series on prayer. It is written by my daughter Madeline. I believe you will benefit from her post about a troublesome time in her marriage after having children. Keep reading: “There will be moments that your spouse will deeply disappoint and hurt you. Notice I don’t say there may be, because there will be. Marriage is the closest, most vulnerable, most intimate relationship a human can experience on Earth. As a result, it has the power to wound in a way that you wouldn’t think possible.”
Today’s post is the second in a six part WordWashedWife series on prayer.

A Christian Mother is only happy when she knows that her children are all walking in the truth of the gospel. This is her lifelong mission. I'd like to share a story with you. It’s a beautiful story of redemption-starring our intellectual prodigal son, JP.
I have always said MOTHERHOOD is synonymous with guilt and self-loathing! This must stop! No more should we think, I wish I baked cookies every week like Sally does, or I wish I was volunteering at the school every day like Jennifer or got to stay home with my kids like Molly. 😊 This must end.
A kind word can warm three winter months!

I believe that fear plays a role in the dysfunction of many marriages today. Deep inside each one of us is a need for attachment with another human. Keep reading as I explore the effect fear may have on your marriage.
The pivotal moment in the marriage ceremony is when bride and groom make vows to God and then turn and make vows to each other. We should not take the covenant lightly, God surely doesn’t.
Today I’d like to share a little more about the birth order theory and how it may relate to what is going on under your roof. If you have more than one child, I believe you will be able to relate and hopefully will benefit from this post.
In today’s post, we will explore how birth order affects each of us and how we react to the stresses of marriage and living with a person who often sees the world through a different perspective.
During each Easter I find myself pondering deep questions. I wonder about Judas and he’s role in the betrayal of Christ. Could he have resisted, and what would have happened if he had? But this year, the question that keeps racing through my mind is about Jesus’s example of submission. How did He do it?
In March 2016, Olive, my oldest granddaughter, was born with cytomegalovirus (CMV). This virus is virtually harmless to everyone but neonates. The early detection of CMV, although hard to process in the moment, was a testimony to God’s faithfulness. Olive’s story is miraculous, and I do love sharing it.
