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 […]

Looking at Ourselves through the True Lens

Posted on July 26, 2016by Teri Lynne Underwood
Most of the time I'm viewing myself through the lens of the world and I always come up short. There's always someone smarter, more talented, more funny, better at writing, skinnier, prettier, wiser ... always someone who has whatever it is I can't find in myself. But the problem is—I'm looking through the wrong lens. For us, as women seeking the Lord, there's only one lens that makes everything clear. His Word. We must learn to use it as a filter for what is true, what is real, what will last.

Last week I had to get my headshots updated. Can I tell you how much I *hate* doing that? All I can see in photos of myself is chipmunk cheeks and the way my stomach pooches out so I look a little bit pregnant {which I assure you I am not!}. Scott was doing the […]

Are You Content?

Posted on July 14, 2016July 14, 2016by Teri Lynne Underwood

You say, “If I had a little more, I should be very satisfied.” But you make a mistake. If you are not content with what you have, you would not be satisfied if it were doubled. Charles Spurgeon Are you content? Store your treasures in heaven, where they will never become moth-eaten or rusty and […]

Praying the Psalms {or “I No Longer Think David Was a Whiner”}

Posted on June 28, 2016June 28, 2016by Teri Lynne Underwood

I can be, well let’s just say, I can be overly emotional. I like to blame it on my mid-forties hormones but the truth is, I’ve always been this way. I come by it honest — my Bigmama is, as my Aunt Mollianne says, “a force of nature.” I feel things deeply, believe things strongly, […]

My Summer Bible Reading Plan

Posted on June 7, 2016June 6, 2016by Teri Lynne Underwood

Can I let you in on a little secret? It’s about one of those things we don’t like to talk about or admit. When the topic comes up, we’re likely to just smile and nod and hope no one asks us anything directly. It’s about something we all readily agree should be a priority … […]

IF THIS, THEN THAT: A Simple Guide to Choosing a Summer Bible Study

If This, Then That: A Simple Guide to Choosing a Summer Bible Study

Have you seen the IFTTT app? Designed to connect every part of our online lives from social media to productivity, from news to healthy living, IFTTT is the answer to it all. Full disclosure, I just signed up for the app this morning so I can’t verify that claim. But if it’s even half-true, I’m […]

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.
