Morning friends, Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and for many of you it will feel different than normal. Because of health and safety concerns, some of you will be eating outside. Others will be sharing a meal via zoom. Some of you may be eating TV turkey dinner because you are all alone. A verse in the […]
My Husband Doesn’t Speak To Me. Do I Have To Have Sex?
Morning friends, Went for another hike last weekend with friends. This time, someone knew where we were going and so all I had to do was follow. What a great illustration for us and Jesus. He knows where we are to go, what steps to take, what pitfalls and dangers are ahead. He shepherds the […]
How Do I Read His Kindness?
Morning friends, I’m thankful to be writing this blog today. I was hiking on Saturday in a new area with a friend. We made all the mistakes a hiker shouldn’t make. We didn’t check out our trail ahead of time. We didn’t tell anyone what specific trail we were going on. We didn’t bring an […]
Identifying and Owning Your Problem
Morning friends, Lately, we’ve been talking around the topic of responsibility and ownership. The R- Step of my CORE strength teaching. Too often as wives and mothers, we have over functioned, taking ownership and responsibility to fix or solve someone else’s problem while ignoring our own. Today’s question is another example, that I’m sure many […]
How Do I Do The E Step In CORE And Still Have Boundaries?

My Husband Became Verbally Abusive After I Gave Birth To My Son 12 Years Ago
Morning friends, I read a quote recently that has me pondering. It’s by Father Thomas Keating and it says, “There is no commandment that says we have to be upset by the way other people treat us. The reason we are upset is because we have an emotional program that says if someone is […]
My Husband Is On The Spectrum. I Feel Guilty Leaving.
Morning friends, I’ve been practicing living more in the moment lately and I have to tell you it’s freeing. When I can stop worrying about the future or regretting or ruminating about the past, there is a lot to enjoy and be grateful for right now. For example, I was taking a bath, something I […]
Is Staying Well The Best Option?
Morning friends, I was in Chicago recently visiting with my family. This past weekend was my 50th high school reunion, but sadly it was canceled due to COVID (Of course – I graduated at 10 years old). It was a little eerie going to the airport and sitting on a full flight for almost 4 […]
Ten Things Every Church Leader Needs To Know
Morning friends, We just concluded our CONQUER launch where hundreds of Christian women in destructive marriages raised their hands and said I need help and support.
