Kate said MEASURE I’ve heard people say that God isn’t into numbers – and I think when it comes to church size, and church signs, that statement is true. However, God sure used some precise measurements in His Word. Let’s take a look at a few The first I can think of is the ark…. [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: REWARD
Kate said REWARD! At first glance I was not thrilled with today’s word. Reward. Sounds self-serving and manipulative to me. If you do this, this, and this then you will get a reward. That is okay if you’re training a dog but humans? Not.So.Much. Reward has 23 listings in the concordance at the back of… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: PLACE
Kate said PLACE. Kate chose the word to support her friend Christie Purifoy’s new book, PLACEmaker; I am glad she did that because the book is excellent. It is good and pleasant — sharing about home and friendship and hospitality and PLACE! We moved from our home of thirty years in June 2018 – the… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: CONVENIENT

In fact when you look out our bedroom window or stand on the balcony of our third floor loft you see the downtown. I’ve been Instagramming pictures tagged… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: INFLUENCE
Kate said INFLUENCE Such a loaded word. Everything, whether good or bad, influences us one way or another. I have had wonderful people in my life who have influenced me in excellent ways. And the opposite is true also, I’ve had un-wonderful people influence me. My wasband influenced the way I saw myself, ugly and… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: WITH
Kate said, “WITH.” Odd word, with. How does one define “With?” It’s very sound means to be WITH. LOL. Not alone. Not by yourself. Not a single entity. But, WITH. I learned a long time ago that when all is said and done, my deep satisfaction, my deepest desires are the result of One. Remember,… [Read More]
