Tiny House on the Hill

Hi! I’m Cathy, and I’d love to welcome you to Creative Pauses from the Tiny House on the Hill.

I write, dream, and play with grandkids in my tiny space. It’s also where I invite friends and soon-to-be friends to join me as we create for God’s glory.

In the hurry of our days, it’s easy to overlook moments that invite us to slow down and reflect on the beauty and lovingkindness of our heavenly Father. And yet, it’s often in these pauses that we find ourselves drawing nearer to God.

 

“God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.” John Piper

 

For years, I searched for satisfaction in all the wrong places. Divorced twice by the age of twenty-seven with two little boys in tow, it wasn’t until this same twenty-seventh year that I came to know Jesus.

And my life was forever changed.

Through this deep satisfaction and love for Christ, I enjoy helping women draw closer to the Lord by offering fresh, creative ways to connect with Him through His Word, prayer, and community.

So I hope you’ll come on in, pour a cup of your go-to coffee, and find a comfy spot in the tiny house on the hill out back.

You’re always welcome here.

 

 

Some of my favorite posts:

 

Let’s stay connected!

  • A Monthly Letter from the Tiny House on the Hill. It’s pithy but still chock-full of goodness that helps you draw closer to the Lord as well as creative ways to show His love to those in your sphere of influence. Simply drop your email address in the sidebar, and come on in!  >>> You can unsubscribe at any time, but gee, I hope you’ll stay. *smile*

Just for Fun!

  • A few years ago, we left the main street living behind and moved twenty minutes away from civilization, aka, Starbucks.
  • I have the six cutest, smartest, and most talented grandchildren known to mankind.
  • I might be impartial.
  • From my desk, I see eight mountain ranges. And yes, it’s glorious.
  • My husband, Brian, spent almost every Saturday building my tiny space for a year and a half. Now that’s a whole lot of love!
  • We’ve been married for over thirty years. {Our perfect God in the center of two imperfect people makes all the difference.}
  • I’m an only child and a total introvert who’s learning more about community along the way.
  • I was one twist of a doorknob from coming face to face with a momma bear.
  • I love all things old — houses, books, flowers, teacups, and postcards.

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. 💗
