Weekend Worship – A Year of Intimacy: Jesus in Us
And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever- increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. – 2 Corinthians 3:18 Earlier in the year I shared that Abba has spoken to my heart that this would be a year of intimacy.

Don’t Know What to Pray?
Over the years I've learned that our mismatched situations come in all shapes and sizes. When I'm asked what mismatched means I explain that it can be as clear as one spouse believes in God and the other doesn't, as gray as differing faiths or degrees of faith (i.e. a believer married to a Muslim

Weekend Worship – We are Surrounded!
Hello my beautiful friends! I'm so glad I'll be back full swing next week. I've missed you all so much. I've dipped into the comments frequently just to keep connected to you all and discovered many of us have been hit with more spiritual warfare these last few weeks. This has pushed me to dig

On Earth As It Is In Heaven
Good Friday morning SUMites Nation: My friends, it looks like the enemy has stolen much from the family of the SUMites. The post on Monday moved my heart and I rose up with a righteous anger in prayer for all of you. I’m declaring through the love of Jesus that marriages, addiction, childhood, abuse, financial

I Am Taking The devil To Court!
Good Monday Morning SUMite Nation: Did you know that three years ago today, Winning Him Without Words, was released? Who knew God would take two ordinary gals and we would share our struggles in a book. And today, three years later, I’m humbled to the core to know that many of you have read this

Trade in Your Yoke
My friends, as Lynn shared on Monday, Abba so overwhelmed us that last day at the conference. For the spiritually mismatched to be called out and recognized in this way was deeply humbling and amazing! It brought me to tears as my heart burst for all of us here. And to be prayed for like

Do We Believe It?
My friends, I’d planned to write a very different post today about two very important things we need to know-who does God say He is and who does He say we are. But I think we’ve actually talked a fair amount about how important it is for us to understand who we are in Christ

So, I would like to welcome you once again to the “Spiritual Terrorist Training Camp.” And once again I would like to welcome the

Weekend Worship – Share Your Testimony!
My friends, Lynn and I had a fabulous time at FamilyLife Today with Dennis Rainey and Bob Lepine last week. These two men have such HUGE hearts for families and marriage. What a privilege it was for us to share our hearts with them. And they asked us some really challenging questions! Good questions. As

2014 A Year of Hope
Hello My Friends, Well there is a lot happening around here. On Monday, my son and his family, his wife and daughter, Elise, who is 10 months old will be moving in with us. They are relocating from Las Vegas, NV to start a new life here in California. This is great news for a

Spread the Love!
My friends, I'm on a love journey. When I was a little girl and a teenager, I believed love was the greatest force of all. That love conquered all. Though I can look back and see that this was Abba working in my life in so many ways, I didn't know Him and defined love

A Fast Finish
And now we come to the last day of our SUMite community fast for 2014. For whatever degree you were able to participate, congratulations. I hope that this has been a good experience for you. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: - 2 Timothy 4:7 But

Holding Fast
How are you feeling on day 3 of our SUMite community fast? Are you a little shaky? Hang in there. In fact (please forgive the pun), hold fast to the Lord. If you carefully observe all these commands I am giving you to follow – to love the Lord your God, to walk in all

A Feast During Our Fast
Wasn’t it cruel of me to choose a photo of a feast during our fast? Ha. I really don’t intend to aggravate your hunger. This table, laid out with a holiday feast, relates to scriptures I want to share. Fasting from food does lead my mind to passages about food. Which of these do you

What Happened in 2013?
My friends, as we draw closer to our fast next week, I think it’s important that we look back and see what happened over the year. I love to look back at what I wrote in January before during our 2013 fast and see what promises and words Abba gave me came to fruition. And

A Letter From Heaven
My Beloved Child, I have longed for this week ahead for many years. I’ve known that this consecrated and intensive time you have planned to spend with Me will bring about the answers to prayers you have uttered for many years. You have come to a place where you have released your desires and your

2014 Community Fast
Good Friday morning to you, SUMites! I sure do enjoy Christmas. It’s a gentle time of year, filled with hope, peace and family. And as I write this post today, I’ve just said goodbye to my husband’s family and they are headed home. December is a neat month where people seem to be just a
