I lead the Christian Club at my school and would like to get a set of Bibles to keep at school to use for our weekly Bible studies. If you are interested in donating one or more Bibles, would you please e-mail me? I’d be open to any new or used NIV translations. If you’d Read More
Thought I’d let y’all know about one of my favorite Bible study places (Simply Youth Ministry) that is offering 12 Days of Freebies as a countdown to Christmas. For those of you involved in Youth Ministry stuff, you may find some of them useful!
The beauty and glory of Coldstone Creamery is that you get to make your own ice cream mix. One day several weeks ago, I was admiring the 20-something flavors and the forty-something mix in options when I got a bizarro idea. What would happen if someone got a small ice cream with every single mix-in Read More
I have this problem that I never “feel” like doing anything. It’s like, “Hey, Steph, wanna come to the super coolest party ever???” And I’m like, “Ummmm…” (*attempts to think of lame excuse*). But, then I stay home and do nothing of great significance. Even if I get my whole house clean or accomplish some Read More
I went to see Shrek 2 with the kids from Hyde’s Christian Club last night. It was a great movie (my favorite parts included the animation of Shrek hacking up his silverware, the townspeople running to the Farbucks across the street, and Puss n’ Boots’ cute kitty face). It was just cool to hang with Read More
When I was growing up, I never thought of myself as a sinner. I mean, I mostly kept the Ten Commandments (the “big” ones anyway). And, the ones I was breaking, I was so ignorant to that I didn’t recognize it. My cohort Camille and I had planned on studying sin for one session, but Read More
My blogging absence (from commenting on other blogs & from my own) may make it seem as though I’ve been less of a thinker lately. That’s not the case. I’ve probably been thinking more, interspersed with many activities such as work, coffee with a friend, small group, judging an Art contest, hanging out with people…. Read More
Josh and I spent last night playing mini golf with kids from the youth group (and the friends they brought). We had a blast wacking our balls around, making up songs (with dances), sharing, yelling at our balls that don’t go the direction we want them to go, playing in the arcade. I didn’t get Read More
I’ve just been amazed at God so regularly lately. I guess I have really been feeling the strength of what happens when you commit youself to a ministry. God teaches you, guides you through it, and sustains you. I’ve been working with the PBCC Jr. High as well as Hyde’s Christian Club. Both have kept Read More
Darn it. I typed this once…and now I’m typing it again because I closed the wrong window without saving first. So, here goes…again…. I’m way tired today. I’m doing all I can to put on the brakes of my freight train life. I want it to slow down, but sometimes God has other plans. My Read More
