The Gift of UNDERSTANDING

Posted on October 24, 2017October 24, 2017by Teri Lynne Underwood
Extending understanding in our relationships opens the door to deeper friendships and deeper love. This gift of understanding isn't just a good idea, it's a godly imperative.

The benefit of the doubt. It’s one of those things we all want to receive … but sometimes we are not as good as giving it to others. But if I’ve learned anything about relationships in my forty-six years, it’s this—the gift of understanding is one of the most precious things we can give our friends.

On Friendship, Bible Journaling, and Craving Connection

Posted on January 24, 2017March 6, 2017by Teri Lynne Underwood

Can we talk friendship for a little bit today? This morning, I was thinking about my friendships and identifying those friendships that have stood the test of time and the newer friends who I can’t imagine now my life without them.  My BFFs from high school are still important to me. There are about six of […]

15 Ideas for #GivingTuesday

Posted on November 29, 2016January 24, 2017by Teri Lynne Underwood

What is #GivingTuesday? In 2012 #GivingTuesday began as an effort to respond to the commercialization and materialism of Christmas. Urging people to use the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving as a day to give back to organizations making a difference in communities and around the world, #GivingTuesday has continued to grow and expand.  I love this […]

What Counts as Success?

Posted on August 9, 2016August 9, 2016by Teri Lynne Underwood
When we're obedient and doing whatever it is God has called us to do — we are successful! Whether that is writing a best-selling book or baking cookies for the neighborhood kids, our success is less about what we're accomplishing and more about Who we're serving.

If you’ve ever heard me speak, you’ve undoubtedly heard these two sentences … “Go ahead and take that nap!” and “We have a low standard of success: if no one’s dead and no one’s in jail, it’s a good day.” I know, you’re now thinking, “Holy cow, this girl is crazy!” And yeah, I probably […]

Why So Busy? 3 Reasons and 3 Responses

Posted on June 30, 2016June 30, 2016by Teri Lynne Underwood
There's good busy and there's bad busy. I know, it all makes our calendars look crazy. But the truth is, there are times when life is just busy and it's for all the right reasons. And then there are the other times — you know, when we've let things get out of control and we need a reality check.

You’re busy. I know. I am too. {Remember, I’m not even apologizing for it anymore.} But here’s the thing, there’s good busy and there’s bad busy. I know, it all makes our calendars look crazy. But the truth is, there are times when life is just busy and it’s for all the right reasons. And […]

Why Am I Here? Knowing God’s Purpose for Our Lives

Posted on March 18, 2016March 23, 2016by Teri Lynne Underwood
How can we know God's purpose for our lives? Can we really live in His purpose during the chaotic season of raising children? Is it possible for us to glorify Him even when our lives are totally busy? I believe the answer to all those questions is a huge YES! But I believe it has to start with knowing what our purpose really is.

Why am I here? Have you ever wondered if anything you do matters? If there’s any sort of value in all the day-to-day mundane? I get it. In the middle of all the laundry doing, meal planning, and kid taxi-ing, it can begin to feel like we’ve lost any sense of purpose.  Even our conversations with […]

Love these Bible Study Resources!

The Daily Grace Co. is one of my favorite places for Bible study resources. Gospel-driven studies, beautiful journals, and more.
This is hard. And none of us was really prepared for how hard it would be. Here's what I'm finding, even when I don't FEEL hope, I can KNOW hope. Because hope isn't a feeling, hope is a Person. If you're struggling, lean into Jesus.
Why is giving ourselves space in between Bible studies valuable? Two reasons not to jump from study to study.

Not sure what or how to pray? I wrote this book for all of us who want to pray with confidence and power.

Praying for Girls: Asking God for the Things They Need Most (Bethany House, 2017) by Teri Lynne Underwood contains 200 Bible-based prayers as well as suggested activities and conversation starters, Praying for Girls is a must-have tool in every mom’s arsenal.
