For the month of December, Brian and I are planning to eat dinner by candlelight.

The table setting is simple and the food is far from fancy, but eating by candlelight slows down our pace and quiets the room, inviting prayer and good conversation to join us at the table. ...

#highpastures Christian Retreat Center provided a beautiful background for the #RidgewoodGreer women’s retreat this weekend, and the retreat team set a tone of togetherness that will linger long after we catch up with laundry and return to our routines.

Thank you @emilymhoffman @kgslice @shannycanny @caseyemarkham @smplumblee @abigail_stubelt Beth Martin, our small group leaders, and all those who prayed behind the scenes. Most of all, I’m grateful for our Heavenly Father, who blessed us through the teaching of His Word, community, laughter, prayer, and ways we may not realize this side of heaven. God is good and gracious to us all. 💗 ...
