You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and their money.

My Goal As a Parent
Our ultimate objective as Christian mothers is to see our children walk in their God-given destiny, not to make them happy. A variety of things make our children happy. No boundaries and late nights watching television make kids happy, as does a pile of sweets and loads of soda, as does letting them run wild […]

Peanut butter and Jelly are comfort food to me like friends who comfort. There are sweet jelly times and sticky, gooey, salty moments with a few crushed nuts added.

Father’s Day Reflections
I am thankful to God for my late grandfather. My grandfather gave me two life-changing gifts- exposure to Christianity and value for education.
