Let's share what we've been perusing this week. From household tips, to spiritual growth...and everything in between!

 

Are you like me in that you frequently come across articles that strike a chord with you for one reason or another, but you aren’t quite sure what to do with them?  A while back, I started a Pinterest board to collect all of these pieces that sparked something in me.  It’s been awhile since I shared some of my stash with you, and my board is kind of overflowing.  Here’s to you finding something that strikes a chord with you!

Here’s what I’ve been reading:

A warning by definition indicates that there is possible or impending danger.  Whether it’s a bothersome problem or a life-threatening scenario, we’re wise to heed warnings.  I was just reading in Proverbs this morning and noticed how many sections have the heading, “Warnings and Instructions.”  I noticed, too, that a number of articles I’ve been wanting to share could fit that heading as well.

Here’s what I’ve been reading:

Social media disagreements, science, history, and random thoughts.  Have I gone back to high school?  Thankfully, no.  And I have to say, what I’ve got to share with you this week is far more interesting than any high school class.

Advice isn’t always well received, is it?  All of the articles I’m sharing this week give solid advice or insights that I’ve needed at one time in my life….or now.  I hope some of it is a blessing to you.

Let's share what we've been perusing this week. From household tips, to spiritual growth...and everything in between!

 

Like most summers, we have been on the road a fair amount the past couple of months.  Between camps, conferences and such, I have felt a bit scattered at times (more than usual, I mean).  🙂

So it should make sense that I’ve been reading things all over the map lately, too, right?  This week I’m sharing articles about marriage, parenting, Christian living, and more.  All of them struck a chord with me in some way.  I hope you find something that speaks to you as well!  Blessings, friends.

Parenting is one of those topics that you just can’t read enough about.  Not that you’re usually seeing new or revolutionary information.  But the nature of humanity is to forget.  Reminders about parenting priorities, methods, ideas and practices are important…I’d even say necessary…in making us the best parents we can be.  I’ve especially had parenting on the brain as I recently read a fantastic book on Christian parenting, and used it to teach a couple of workshops.  One of the things I have enjoyed the most is hearing parents speaking into each others’ lives in the course of our discussions.

Here’s what I’ve been reading…
