Where is the parting of my Red Sea?
I’m wondering if you’ve noticed??? There has been a shift in our atmosphere here among the Sumites. This house has gone through a transition in the last six months. Dineen and I have talked about this transition a lot but what was really cool is that last week I was talking to Beverly Etzel, one…

Live With Intention
So, can I just say it’s been the weirdest week. I have experienced every emotion from sheer elation to deep sadness and about everything in between. With that said, perhaps my “word filter” isn’t in full gear meaning that you are going to get my guts… It could be Icky… but it’s always going to…

The Prodigal and Our Unrelenting God
Good Morning, Lynn Here. If you have prayed for any length for a prodigal or a spouse to come to faith and feel like they are so lost, so far from God that it will never happen, then this story is for you. I want to introduce my friend, Angie Knight. I met Angie in…

No Ordinary Light
Today I want to share something with you that may seem a bit weird. And I’m not even really sure why I’m supposed to share this story. However since the time it occurred the Lord has placed it continually before me as the next post I’m to write. I’m thinking somehow this encounter will greatly…

Conflict In Marriage – I Bet You Didn’t Know THIS EITHER
On Friday I shared a story about how the enemy twists words in our marriage conflicts. Geeze, when I heard this it really made me mad. I can just imagine in the early years of my marriage how this could have and likely DID happen in our home. But what makes me even madder is…

Conflict In Marriage – I Bet You Didn’t Know THIS
I heard the most astonishing story this past week. And as I’ve thought about it, I’m compelled to share it with you. I was engaged in a discussion with a few people about marriage. You can imagine this particular subject will come up often because I’m so fascinated by God’s design for marriage. The gist…

A Marriage of Honor
So my friends, it’s been a tough week. On Friday morning I telephoned Dineen on her cell phone and said, “I need you to pray for me. I’m really sick and can’t seem to kick this cough. It’s one in the afternoon and getting into Kaiser (our healthcare provider) will be impossible at this late…

Monday Morning Update
Good Monday Morning Everyone, My friends, forgive me for being a little out of the loop. I wasn’t able to be involved in the comments as last week I was really sick. I spent most of the week in jammies on the couch. I think I may have coughed up a lung at one point,…

The Beautiful but Dark Gateway
I left you earlier in the week with a scene from our kitchen table. My daughter had experienced a supernatural and scary encounter. But, you know as I think upon this, my heart soars… You know why? This 17 year old kid KNEW what to do. Somewhere, somehow, I’ve equipped her with enough to go…

The Battle For Your Kids
Last night my daughter looked up from the kitchen table where she was working on homework. I'd just sat down in the family room to watch the news recorded our on DVR. It was late in the evening as I arrived home from an evening Bible study and she from drama rehearsal. ”Mom, the bed…

Can A Christian Be Oppressed?
It started in a garden… Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” People were given authority over the entire planet. And…
