I'm thrilled to welcome Kelly Balarie whose book, Fear Fighting: Awakening Courage to Overcome Your Fears, releases today. I'll be sharing more about the book has impacted me and my thoughts about the coming year later this month. But today, I wanted you to hear from Kelly about a topic we all face—rejection. Kelly's words are a great reminder and reminder for all of us as 2017 begins. ~ TL Fear Fighting: When Rejection Tears Your Heart Apart I remember it like yesterday: he ... [Read More]
{Some of} My Favorite Books of 2016
Okay, before we get started I need you to know something ... writing posts like this is super hard for me because, really and truly, books are like friends for me and choosing my favorites is akin to asking me to leave people off the list for a big party! Life would be so much easier if you all lived on my street instead of in my computer and then you could just come over and browse my bookshelves and I could tell you why every book on them is amazing and how it might encourage you. But since ... [Read More]
Most Popular Posts of 2016
I can't believe we're in the last week of 2016. Y'all, cray-zee. This year flew by, didn't it?? I was looking over the posts I wrote this year and all the topics we've covered around here.

But there has also been a lot of joy. The biggest news this year in our house was my book contract with Bethany House. I'm still a little ... [Read More]

What’s Your WHY? Living Your Priorities this Christmas
Our family calendar for the next few weeks looks basically like a pack of Bic pens blew up. Places we are supposed to be. Practices we are supposed to attend. Parties we are supposed to host. People we are supposed to see. Supposed. That's such a guilt-inducing word, right? Sort of like "should" and "ought." In my mind, every sentence that includes one of those three words is followed by a sentence beginning with, "But ..." And, honestly, because of the blend of my people-pleasing ... [Read More]
{Book Review} Listen Love Repeat by Karen Ehman
Have you ever read a couple of lines in a book and had to stop because the words resonated so deeply within you that you needed time to stop and allow them to sink in and soak in and expand. Four years ago, I read a book by Karen Ehman titled Let. It. Go. It rocked my world. Seriously. Two years ago, I was honored to endorse her next book, Keep. It. Shut. Another awesome book. But her latest, Listen, Love, Repeat: Other-Centered Living in a Self-Centered World, is even better. By the time ... [Read More]
