Epic Grace

I feel like last summer the word EPIC came from left field and was every other word out of the teenaged populations mouths but I think Kurt Bubna was on the right track when he used in in the title of his book , " Epic Grace".  I like that from the cover you can tell his voice and honesty by saying he is a "recovering idiot".

This book has been through the ringer with me me, I received this book sometime at the end of January/ early February and if you know me, you know that was the start of an amazing journey!! We have moved to Indiana from Texas and started our new journey at our new church.  Well sometime on this journey my poor copy of the book became wet and is about four times the size that it was when i received it.

I think the most important thing I have grasped from this book is that we need to remember that we all fall short sometimes, and have slap your head moments. I am pretty sure I had one of those "idiot" moments last night, but what we have to remember is that God is forgiving and continues us with grace, we just need to accept it.

Bubna has laced all his sharing with bible verses and straight talk. I would highly recommend "Epic Grace" by Kurt W. Bubna


**** Tyndale House Publishers has provided you with a complimentary copy of this book ****

LIFE: Camp

I have had an awful lot of un published blogs lately. These blogs come from deep routed feelings that have surfaced this year due to one thing or another. Maybe some day these blogs will be unearthed but for today, this blog needed to be written while it was still raw.  I have very vague memories of third or forth grade summer camp at Alto Frio, where I met Nana Pudding ( a christian puppet) and went pogging for the first time in a river. Summer after sixth grade,  I got in church vans and headed to Louisiana for the first time to attend Student Life Camp, then proceeded to go to Angelo State University and Glorieta New Mexico a few times. I spent time serving during spring breaks at Riverbend Retreat Center which lead to an internship over the summer. The week that "Curtis" and I first really got to know each other, we were at Glorieta for Centrifuge camp.  Camp is a special place for me. Camp is a happy place for me.  In 2018, I was able to experience camp through ...

REVIEW: Gratitude: A Prayer and Praise Coloring Journal

{necessary information} I received this book as a try-me from Tyndale Publishers and the opinions expressed in this blog are mine alone and not those of the author or publisher {transparency of blogger} I have worked for preschools and coaching facilities and as a babysitter for most of my life. Sometimes you have an extra coloring sheet laying around while the kids are babysitting ( and sometimes it was on purpose) so you have to sit down with the kids and use the best crayons or color pencils available to color the extra page. Okay, okay, I love to color. There is something therapeutic to coloring.  { review Gratitude} I love all things girly, so the fact that this book came with a flowery firm cover- I was giddy. Then you open up to devotion surrounded with black and white images crying to be colored- I was over the moon. After I read the devotional there is room to journal through my thoughts, taking coloring breaks. I highly reccomend this book for all ages and would b...

love is patient and kind

There is a point in your life when you have to accept that your plan for your family( brothers, sisters, moms and dads) and friends is not your own. I grew up in a family where if I had not accepted their changes, I would not have family and would have grown up sad and alone. I grew up in a family where they did not attend church, so they knew that I was not happy about their changes but I still loved them and prayed for them endlessly. I do not have to agree with people or be uplifted by someone to show them Gods love though loving them. God loves us even when we endlessly try to walk away by sinning. These people may not be doing what God wanted for them but it is not our place to throw it in their faces, once we tell them- we pray for them and keep loving them.
