    Wonderfully Made: My Amazing Miracle Birth Story

    August 10, 2017 /

    How does my miracle birth story relate to the ancient Israelites? Because we so easily forget the miracles in our lives if we don’t take time to thank God for them. Have you ever read the Old Testament and wondered how in the world the Jews could see so many miracles and keep turning away from God?  I know I do. Especially shocking is the story of the Israelites leaving Egypt after all the plagues and the angel of death passing over the Israelite homes. God leads them as pillar of cloud during the day and a pillar of fire at night. Despite witnessing God’s CLEAR, miraculous intervention, at the…

    How to know if you’re really Called to Homeschool

    July 31, 2017 /

    Do you feel called to homeschool? Maybe you think you might be or feel like you wish you could but are questioning if God really has called you to homeschool. Maybe you’re picturing your sweet baby sitting all day in a hard desk instead of exploring the wonders of creation at the beach or reading together curled up on the couch, but you’re wondering if you missed this call? Some homeschool moms talk about feeling called to homeschool. But I always wondered what that call is supposed to sound like? Was I supposed to get some sort of message from God that homeschool is what I’m supposed to be doing?…

    The Election is Over. What should Americans do now?

    November 9, 2016 /

    Election season has never felt quite so divisive as it did this year. The entire country is so desperately polarized. The despair and anger and vitriol are palpable. Our country is at tremendous risk of destruction from within. What should Americans do now? If you are a reasonable, intelligent American, I’m talking with you; I’m walking with you. We need to act like we are reasonable and intelligent more now than ever. I’m not seeing very many reasonable, intelligent responses following the election. As Christians, we faced an impossible decision. As Americans, we faced a truly painful one. But we GET to choose how we act today. Maybe, today we…

    Dear Friend, My testimony – giving up changed everything.

    June 7, 2016 /

    Dear Friend, this is my testimony about how I took a failing marriage, bitter heart, broken body and gave up . . . . . . but giving up changed my life. And I really want you to give up, too. I’ve been trying to find the perfect words to share my testimony, but honestly, I’m scared I’ll say the wrong thing and push you away from hearing more about Christ. I wish we could sit together, curled around cups of coffee, lean into each other and talk, but I don’t want to wait any longer. None of us have a tomorrow guarantee. I don’t want another person I love…

    Easy Ways to Make the Bible Kid Friendly

    The Bible is the one book we say is the most important in our homes, but how do we make it truly central in the lives of our children and home in a meaningful way? (Heaven not Harvard is as a participant in affiliate programs including the Amazon Associates Program. As an affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.)

We read the stories together regularly, although not as often as I wish we had. The days go by so fast! But the real difference…
