Book List: Favorite Christian Fiction
Christian Fiction or Biblical Fiction have been such a game changer for me. My free time to read is almost non-existant and I often get burnt out from in-depth Bible studies. Reading one of these books allows me to still keep Christ focused while reading for pleasure.
Genuine faith quote
What is Genuine Faith? This quote is inspired from the book of James. James was the half brother of Jesus and the devoted leader to the Jerusalem church after the disciples scattered. Blue Letter Bible says this about him;
”When he (James) did follow Jesus, he followed with great devotion. An early history of the church says that James was such a man of prayer that his knees had large and thick calluses, making them look like the knees of a camel. It also says that James was martyred in Jerusalem by being pushed from a high point of the temple. Yet the fall did not kill him, and on the ground he was beaten to death, even as he prayed for his attackers.”
Prayer for a strong-willed child
When I was going through a parenting class 10 years ago, I heard Andy Stanley say, “later is longer” meaning disciplining your child in the first five years of life will pay off when you get to the teaching, coaching and even friendship stages in life. I’ve never forgotten that phrase and use it in so many parts of my life. I use it to encourage a friend at work, a marriage struggling, sports and of course parenting. Especially parenting. And especially parenting our #4.
Praying Isaiah 41:10
Pray this do not fear prayer based on Isaiah 41:10
Lord, help me to trust and not fear, resting in the promise that you are always near. Even when I do not understand, help my faith to stand firm and not be shaken. Trusting that while you may not give us the answer, you give us yourself. Strengthening us, holding and helping us, promising us your righteousness, power, and care.
May we always remember your words to us here. Amen.
New Sweatshirts and Their Fit
We just launched our three new sweatshirts and it always helps to see the fit LIVE and not photographed.
And I’ll admit, I’m not the most entertaining but I get the job done :) You’ll see the fit, fabric, and verse we hope you are reminded of each day to draw closwer to the Lord.

Tessa Afshar, Connilyn Cossette, and Francine Rivers.
Some of the deepest moments of my faith journey has been picking up a good read and letting the charcters inspire me. Christian Fiction or better yet Biblical fiction has a way of opening up our mind into what life MAY have been like back then.
