The Death of the Dream.
This post has been on my mind for awhile now and I finally decided to write it. Growing up in the United States of America, we're taught things like: "America is the greatest nation in the world," and that "Immigrants came to America for a better life." We grow up hearing of the American Dream--a... Continue Reading →
Pots O’ Soup
I love a good soup. Who doesn't? Did you know that soup has supposedly existed since around 20,000 BC? I honestly did not know that until today. Also, the first cookbook in the U.S. included recipes for soups. So yeah, soup has been around for a long time. When the nights get cold, soup is... Continue Reading →
Kids and Their Eating Habits…
My kids are going through a bread stage. Every meal or snack currently includes a request for bread. "I want chicken, and pinky (strawberry applesauce), and bread."Or "I want gummies and bread."

On church days, I always feel like there's not enough worship time. I'll be honest, Nights of Worship are my absolute favorite kind of nights. To me, praise and... Continue Reading →
The Three Day Sacrifice
Have you ever wondered why Jesus rose on the third day? Why not the day after or a week later? Was it to give His disciples time to spread the word that the great Rabbi had died? I mean, the more people that could find out in that time, the greater the miracle of it,... Continue Reading →
The Rules of Self-Esteem
Can I talk about self-esteem today? It seems like everywhere there is an outcry to "Be yourself" and a general attitude of "Don't care what other people think of you, just be happy." Which is great and all, but all of these declarations that are supposed to encourage a positive self-esteem and self-image also come... Continue Reading →
Acknowledging Unexpected Achievements
