    I love the humor and honesty you write with. I will be praying for your family, that God wraps His arms of love around You and holds you tightly, and that you'll be enveloped by His peace in the midst of trials. The last year and 1/2 in our family has been quite the ride, and some of it nearly did me/us in emotionally (and physically). But we're coming out of it now, and I can see how faithful He was, and is...in the smallest details. Welcome to the High Calling network. Let us know how we can serve and encourage you. We're glad to have you onboard!

A Hope and a Future | FaithTakers - 0 views

  •  
    So true, so true. I've been on much the same journey this year and God has proved Himself faithful time and time again. It's so easy to listen to the enemy instead of our Best Friend…and His Word. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and how God's been teaching you. Many people are hurting and in distress right now and it's great to find a ministry that's dedicated to showing them Jesus' light. Oh, and welcome to HCB-I look forward to seeing more of your excellent writing there.

Are Nachos the Secret to a Happy Marriage? - 0 views

    Janet, first, welcome to The High Calling. I'm so glad you've joined our blog network. I love the look, writing and theme of your site and will look forward to reading more of it in the days/weeks to come. Second, how fun to read your story! My hubby and I-we've been married 16 years in July-met in a touring group (a 2-year commitment, after which I almost had to be committed!) of young adults, dated on the road, and got married right after the tour ended. We, too, were poor graduate student newlyweds with a roach-infested apt. and a grocery budget that had a huge line item for "PRAY!" I'd love to have coffee sometime and swap ministry-life stories, but since I'm in TX and you're in CA, I guess we'll have to settle for visiting one another's blogs. :) Have a great weekend, and again, thanks for joining THC!

September Days, September Angst | May 1st Everlasting#comment-121 - 0 views

  •  
    I so relate to this post! I have always, always loved Fall and the start of a new school year-for me or my boys. I still long to go "back to school" and finish my masters' degree, and then spent the rest of my years on a college campus teaching English, writing, and reading…maybe God will make a way. If not, I can continue learning from life and the Lord. Thanks for this walk down memory lane, and for joining HCB. You have a lovely blog!

Housewife in town...: One Thousand Gifts - 0 views

  •  
    Laura, your blog, photos, and writing are all lovely, and I wanted to tell you that we at The High Calling are really thrilled you've joined the network. I'm a mom of boys with an extroverted hubby (and I'm an introvert), so I can relate to the struggles you so honestly depict. I pray that as you honestly with others--and God--how you're struggling, you'll find community, encouragement, and peace. God bless you today and every day!

    I've been reading Ann's book, and it is so challenging and encouraging. I agree-it's life-changing. We're glad you're recommending it, and we're glad you've joined her-and us-in the High Calling network. Here's praying that 2012 brings you lots of joy, "SEEING," and gratitude!

    Caroline, I love this! I'm trying to live in the moment, too-embracing every bush that's afire with God. And I'm so, so glad you've joined The High Calling blog network. I can't wait to read more of your excellent writing. I have two boys, adore bacon and avocados (sometimes, on the same sandwich!) and love mission work (it's how I met my husband). Your ministry sounds amazing, and I can't wait to hear more about it as you share your stories and experiences with our bloggers.

The Mission | Onerefuge#comment-277 - 1 views

  •  
    Ric, I'm one of The High Calling welcome editors and just wanted to say that I'm really glad you've reached out to us. This is a great post, and I love this part: "A church on a mission is what happens when you and I replace the "come to us" invitations with a "go to them" life." Wow! So true…and convicting. I use to live in the Hill Country of TX and now am in Amarillo. Good to see another Texan in the HC network. Welcome aboard! I look forward to getting to know you better online.

Delicate Fortress Creations: The Enterprising Kitchen (TEK) Closes - 2 views

    "How sad. I work at a non-profit and we recently had to close an afterschool program for youth in the poor part of town. Funders have lost so much money in the recession, and it's a trickle-down effect. I pray this wonderful organization finds the funds and spirit to re-start, or that the women who were being benefits from it can receive help and encouragement elsewhere. Thanks for joining the High Calling Network. I love what you're doing with your business and blog! "

    I so agree. Background checks should be essential for any kind of interaction with kids. I work with a non-profit, and at the least we have an interview with a volunteer--and make them fill out an application. Even if they're NOT working with children. Let's be "as wise as serpents and as innocent as doves." BTW, Welcome to the High Calling network; we're thrilled to have you and look forward to your insights, comments, and posts a you navigate the community!

    Amy, I'm really glad you've joined The High Calling. It was fun to hear about your She Speaks experience--I've always wanted to go and haven't been able to you. I'm one of the welcome editors at THC and wanted to offer my support and perspective as you try to get published. I love writing and just signed my 5th book contract with Kregel. Good luck and Godspeed on your writing journey! I hope to get to know you better as you participate in our network.

The Inside Out Life: Church work - 0 views

    My husband and I have been involved in ministry (in some context) for most of our adult lives, and I so agree that there must be BOTH being and doing in effective ministry. I've enjoyed reading through your thought-provoking (and challenging) posts! Thanks for joining the High Calling network, and let us as editors know if we can be of any help or encouragement.

Parenting Comparison Trap - Beholding Glory - 0 views

  •  
    We must have been thinking alike this week--I posted on MY blog about raising strong-willed kids. It's terrifying, frustrating, exhilarating, and exhausting. Thanks for being real about it. I read a few of "those" books when my oldest was young, and just about threw one in particular (the one you quoted) in the trash. Instead, I gave it back to the person who gave it to me--sweetly saying, "Thanks." And then I did what worked for us...after finding out what it was. (LOL) God is right there with us when we struggle as parents, and I'm glad you're reminding our fellow moms-in-the-trenches of that. Welcome to THC! I can't wait to read more of your blog. And congrats on your Bible study, too. It looks wonderful!

7 Inspirational and Funny SpongeBob Quotes About Life#more-636 - 0 views

  •  
    my boys love the Sponge! :) I caved after my second son was born, and they do laugh louder with SB than just about any other show--and I laugh alongside them. He's loyal, hard-working, and content. A pretty good role model in many ways. Thanks for pointing out his "stupid" wisdom! And welcome to The High Calling. We're really glad to have you along for the ride. :)

Is Economic Crisis an End-Time Indicator? - 1 views

  • Mike, thanks for the thoughtful post. I have watched the events unfolding over the last few months with curiosity, dread, and a great deal of trepidation. I’m so glad that we know–whatever happens–that Christ WILL come and His perfect kingdom WILL be established. Welcome to the High Calling network. I’m a fellow Wordserve author (Greg is my agent), and I’m also one of the welcome editors. We’re really glad to have you in the community!

Worry - The Overrated Luxury | Gary L. Ellis - 0 views

  •  
    Gary, I appreciate your thoughts on this, and the excellent quote. Worry is something that had been a stronghold in my life, and this last year I sensed God wanted to remove it. It was not easy, and I can't say I'll never deal with it again, but through His power and grace, I am much less likely to sin in this way than I was before. Praise be to Him! Welcome to High Calling Blogs. We look forward to seeing you around the network. Your comment is awaiting moderation Reply
