Happy 40th Honey!

It would just be awesome of you girls to give a shout out to my darling Luke who is

40 Years Old TODAY!

I have been threatened with destruction of my computer if I put his 80’s mullet pictures on here like I wanted, so I must let his appearance remain a mystery – for now.

As for celebrating, we are on our way tonight with friends to a new Mexican Restaurant called Abuelos. Not sure if it is a chain? I hear it’s yummy and I’m already getting my partying shoes ready.

Happy Birthday, Honey… There is nothing more comforting in my life than knowing I have you as a protector and companion ’til death do us part and that our children have a godly dad who wants nothing more than to look like Jesus to them. I am forever grateful God changed all the plans for my life and made Himself and you the center of it.

40 never looked so good!!

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!

Happy 40th Honey!

Love of Epic Proportion...

It wasn't about the stuff until I was the recipient of it..
