We were talking about Luke 7:36-50. (You can read the text of that passage here - no scrolling to find it, thanks to the awesome site Bible Gateway.)
We were talking about how much courage it took for this “sinful woman” to [...]

I’ve been staying away from political posts - heck, I’ve been staying away from politics altogether - but I had to get this off my chest. Besides, it came to me by way of the Carnival of Homeschooling.

Last Christmas, I bought the kids the Smithsonian Frog Lab and we finally got around to doing it yesterday.

I just wanted to say “Hi” and thank you for stopping by my blog. I am sorry that there is nothing new to read. Well, I guess this is new, but you know what I mean. I have not had very much internet time for the last few days or so. [...]
