By Lori Kempton − I’m never good at keeping New Year resolutions, so I decided several years ago not to even try. However, I’m not sure why, but it seems that God gives me insight for the year ahead each January. In fact, last year I went into 2013 kicking
By Lynn Mosher – Last year, I read a post and the last sentence made me think, “And the empty pot awaits, ready for a fresh batch.” It reminded me of the story of Stone Soup. If you’ve never heard of it, here’s a synopsis of this version of the
By Gina Burgess – Okay, Okay… I know I’m late. I get depressed thinking about making New Year Resolutions. Do you? Do you look at your list six months down the road and think… ACK! I’ve failed! How often do we recognize what others need to change in their lives
By Heidi McLaughlin – It happened sixteen years ago. A young woman came to me and with tears in her eyes asked me if I would mentor her. I was startled. I didn’t know how to respond because I had never “officially” mentored anyone. Even though I said yes, I

By Sherri Snelling – One of the things I hate about New Year’s Resolutions is they seem to be about taking away something rather than giving yourself something. I suppose one could argue if you lose weight with more exercise and eating more nutritiously you are giving yourself a longer,
By Olga Hermans – Have you been struggling at times with the feelings of frustration that come with trying to be like someone else? You struggle to find out what your gifts and talents are, but don’t seem to get your breakthrough. There are many things that keep us from
Guest post by Sandi Elzinga – December, 2001. The last Christmas season my husband and I spent together. We were focused on the basics. Bill was fast becoming paralyzed and we had no clue what was wrong. We cried out to God and waited through the holidays for the doctor’s diagnosis. While Bill was still able to
By Gina Burgess – In your living room or somewhere in your house there may be a green tree standing tall and draped with beautiful, tinkling jewels of light and gaiety. Today there is an ongoing argument whether it should be called a Christmas tree or a Holiday tree. Most
By Amy Layne Litzelman – “For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He gave…” John 3:16 AMP I often find myself torn this time of year. I’m shocked that “the perfect imprint and very image of [God’s] nature” – the One who upholds and maintains and
By Pamela Reynolds – At Holiday get-togethers we sometimes spend more time worrying about the family we will be interacting with, than the simple pleasure of their company. We are wasting a happy occasion with our non-stop anxieties. Many of these fears are of our own making and actually carry no
Author Unknown – Shared by Pastor Justus Ghormley of Community Christian Church in Rancho Palo Verdes. Santa lives at the North Pole… Jesus is everywhere. Santa rides a sleigh… Jesus rides on the wind and walks on water. Santa comes once a year… Jesus is an ever present help. Santa
Guest post by Sandi Elzinga – Recently, I had a semi-relapse of the same fatigue I wrestled with several years ago. (See Running With Gerbils: The Wheel of Grief, http://wp.me/pz1Df-5a). Once again, I got myself too busy, trying to do it all as one person; no longer the couple Bill
By Lynn Mosher – “Unto us a Son is given…and His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” (Isa. 9:6 NKJV) Many prophecies given. Many generations came and died. Until, the prophecies came to pass. When heaven’s Temple came down… “But when the
How can Christmas be so wonderful, yet so agonizing all at the same time? I lay wide awake at 2 a.m., trying to think: Did I drink too much coffee? Was it the dark chocolate almonds? Why this feeling of joy and sorrow all at the same time? Why this mess
By Lynn Baber – God does not call us to celebrate Christmas. God calls us to love His Son. As mature trees gradually exchange their lush green mantles of summer for autumn masterpieces of red, purple, and gold the tenor of the world begins to change. The clamor over back-to-school
By Lori Kempton – I remember when I was a new Christian, my children were young. I bought them praise and worship tapes and they carried them around in their tape recorders blasting music throughout the house. One song keeps ringing in my head tonight. The words say, “Not by
By Alisa DiLorenzo – ‘Tis the season to be trimming the tree, sending out cards, baking cookies, choosing the presents and decking the halls at holiday parties. So many things to do and you often tell yourself “so little time”. During this time you may pose for the family picture
By Guest Blogger Lucille Zimmerman – In the last few days I’ve heard from five people who told me the spouses of their adult children have limited access to their grandchildren. I don’t know all the circumstances…one said she gave pasta to the child. Now the mom won’t let the
