Sorcery, Mediums and Witchcraft

Sorcery, Mediums and Witchcraft
Standing at my door was a girl I had known since 1st grade. At 8 years-old she had a fascination with magic, mediums and consulting the dead in séances. As a child I had never heard what God thought about these things, it just wasn’t talked about in my church. I didn’t know for sure that it was wrong but I felt it wasn’t right and never participated in her lifestyle. [...]

The Farm Wedding/Reception-Preparations Commenced this Past Weekend

The Farm Wedding/Reception-Preparations Commenced this Past Weekend
  Our 4th lovely daughter Rachael has never asked for much. She’s always been a hard worker, had a job in high school to help buy the things she wanted and has held jobs in-between college semesters. So, when she came to me and asked this vast question I didn’t know how to respond. “Mom, what’s the budget for my wedding?” I wanted to be able to say, [...]

When Hell Seems to Come Against You, Be an Overcomer!

When Hell Seems to Come Against You, Be an Overcomer!
  Have you ever felt like hell was coming against you? I don’t make that statement often. But last week...well, it was a humdinger if you know what I mean. Someone stole Dale’s identity, opened credit card accounts, used existing accounts, and racked up thousands upon thousands of dollars in his name. We immediately alerted Experian, our bank and th[...]

Jonathan Proposed to Our Daughter, Rachael, in the Barn Saturday night
     From the time Dale and I knew we were pregnant with each of our five daughters, we started praying for their spouses. This past Saturday night, our fourth daughter Rachael was engaged to the man of her dreams and the one we had prayed for from the time we conceived her. Just a few months before we met him for the first time, I had taken a class on the [...]
