A Mama Heart Like Jesus: A Guide to Discipling Our Kids 

As moms who love Jesus, we want nothing more than to raise our kids to know, love, and follow Jesus too.  But how do we best impart this devotion to our kids when we are flawed and sinful by nature?  The answer, I believe, is to let Jesus transform us to become more and more like Him in the way we act and how we disciple our kids.  We need a mommy make-over…not a make-over of our outer appearance but a makeover of our hearts…Let’s take a closer look at  how Jesus discipled His followers to learn how we can be Mamas who disciple our kids to follow Him too.

21 Days of Surprises: A Countdown to Christmas

Several years ago I decided to make a Christmas Countdown Devotional to share with all of you.  As I  prayed about what I wanted it to look like, I contemplated what we as parents really want to prioritize during the Christmas season. These three things came to mind: Sharing the story of Jesus’ birth with our children,
spending special time with our families, and finding ways to share God’s love with others.

Keeping God First While On Vacation:
A Family Vacation Devotional

Recently we had the opportunity to take a family vacation with some friends on a cruise to the Bahamas!
