Embers

For those who need to surrender. Again. I know how it is. Maybe you’re struggling with the call to stay. Or go. I’ve been there. 

Below is a simple heart cry from several years ago. When I felt weak. Empty. 

He heard.

Devotional Memoir

True love

It was a last-minute wedding. An unforgettable event. Singing about true love. And walking through the unexpected. 

 The love song put me and my guitar there that day. In the old sanctuary with its stained glass windows and antique pews. 

The church secretary had called a few days before.

A young couple was engaged to be married. The young man had just received military orders and would be shipped out the following week. So they’d decided to get married that weekend. Would I sing?

Prodigal redeemed

On July 16, 2015, our prodigal’s story changed. Today is the anniversary of that day. And below, in his own words, our son tells his story. Many people across the world prayed for him over several years. Praying for more than they knew at the time. To them we say: Thank you. Here is the answer to those prayers.
