My little pacifist….

I had the great pleasure of spending time with my 18-month old nephew today. The Princess was delighted to play every manner of game with him while I helped pack my in-law’s for a move. We took a break to go outside for a bit and The Princess said,

“Don’t worry about us, mom. We are going to have a gentle war.”

And didn’t that ease my mind?

Hi... I'm Lisa and as the tagline says, also a preacher's wife. I began this website in 2007 just prior to the Facebook revolution when mom blogs were a relatively conflict-free zone for sharing recipes and stories about our latest parenting fails. Fast-forward a few years... Luke and I continue to serve the same family of believers in North Alabama where we've called home for over 16 years. The boys are grown and gone, we have an incredible daughter-in-law and the baby McKay is living her best life as an only child while working and going to college. I am a full-time corporate employee and still love to write and teach Scripture. The last two years haven't been kind to public events but it's been during these trying times that the Lord has revealed the importance of the local church reclaiming discipleship using the gifts of those within the body. The time feels right to refresh the blog as a platform for sharing how God has worked through this process and perhaps encourage other churches to follow. And who knows, there may even be a recipe or more parenting fails. Those don't stop when your kids become adults. Thank you for visiting.. I look forward to connecting!
