DISCIPLESHIP SERIES- BIBLICAL STUDY: Methods and Application

   The Key That Unlocks Understanding of Scriptures My husband and I have been traveling across the country in a big move so I am just now getting some time and wifi to make another lesson God placed on my heart and mind while we were in the middle of traveling. If you're new to Bible study as a Christian, you've been a Christian a very long time and been wanting to go deeper in your Biblical study, or if you're an unbeliever trying to understand Scripture this is for you.

DISCIPLESHIP SERIES -The Sowing of The Word

I hope you had a chance to read my first post in this blog. If you haven’t you can find it  HERE . Last time I wrote a foundational lesson on Scriptural/Biblical authority and the importance of it to our faith. I also touched on faith foundations and relationship with Jesus.

DISCIPLESHIP SERIES -The Foundations of Faith and Biblical Authority

Before we can even begin to align our lives with the Word of God, we must know the WHY we align ourselves with the Word of God. To understand this we have to examine first the word "faith".

Where 28 Finds Me

Hey guys! I was going to write a facebook post, but the wise husband saw my post getting quite lengthy and suggested I make a blog post instead. Smart man. :D Yesterday was my birthday. It started out a little rough waking up at 6am from repeated dings from my phone. All were text messages wishing me a happy birthday from my East Coast friends! Just gave me an extra early start to my day and I'm grateful I have friends who will wake me up at 6am one day out of the year!! :P I put on one of my favorite blue dresses that I bought from a ROSS last year and slipped on some jewelry paired with some brown leather sandals that I hadn't worn in awhile but matched the gold jewelry well! Finished up with some makeup and curling of my hair. I was so pleased with putting myself together so well and so quickly!  Then DISASTER struck. Of course it did. SOMETHING had to happen on this most special day haha. Getting out of the car and heading towards the building for a board meeting, I no...

Books, Authors, Doctors, and Commissary Conundrums

What a day! This morning a new friend in the military who I am getting to know picked me up to take me to a local church for an author speaking event. The book was one she came across and shared with me written by a wife and mom in the military named Carrie Daws. I connected so much with the author!  We had so much in common. From both of us having taken the Christian Writer's Guild writing program (she is the first I have ever met in my life who mentioned taking this! She was surprised to hear that I knew what it was!) AND has a daughter who struggles with weight, diet, exercise, etc because of how naturally petite she is.  She also has become a writer because of life circumstances and is an info junkie! Always reading something and absorbing information like a sponge. We are so alike! In so many ways I knew I was meant to be there to meet this woman. I got a chance to talk with her. She is so down to earth, homeschool mom, and EXPERIENCED with an incredible testimony. Sh...

Under Full Attack

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.  Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,    against spiritual  hosts  of wickedness in the heavenly  places.   ~ Ephesians 6:10-12 The last couple days have been EXTREMELY rough for me. Yes I had my victory with the doctor. I had a good day, but someone was not happy about that and has been attacking me from the time I woke up the next morning. Spiritual warfare is REAL. The past two nights I have had nightmares. I have noticed a pattern over the last few weeks of our greatest enemy Satan desperately targeting every weakness of my past and present. I have grown exhausted emotionally in just two short days. I've gone through a cycle of loss of appetite and then the temptations to...
