Last month, my husband and I took a quick trip to Florida, mostly to get away from our Nebraska winter for a few days. While we were there we spent a day at Epcot. If you’ve been to Epcot you know it was designed to look somewhat like a giant World’s Fair. Its purpose is …
Trapped by the Lies
By Julie Luse Why do we think we can do this on our own? Why do we think when things get rough and our soul gets weak that we can pull ourselves out of it on our own? A couple of weeks ago Brian Clark gave a great message on Galatians 5 & 6 talking …
Seeing Clearly
This past Tuesday another of our MUMS, Bonnie Aksamit, shared her story with us. If you were there, you heard the incredible journey she's been on and the many ways God has led her through tragedies and challenges. I was especially encouraged to hear how the women of Equip Her have been instrumental in her healing and …
Our King of Kings
by Carey Helmink I love to read. Probably my favorite genre is historical fiction—although I really do love The Lord of the Rings and the Harry Potter series which I’m pretty sure are NOT historical fiction (although those worlds seem pretty real to me)—but, regardless, I am a fan of historical fiction. I’m terrible with …
Smoothing Rough Edges
If you missed Sunshine's testimony on Tuesday, I hope you will take a moment and read what she had to say. I find it so encouraging to see the way God uses His Word and the community of believers to smooth the rough edges in all of us. by Sunshine Metschke The question I was …

by Carey Helmink I am guessing that most of you know the story of Job – if you are unfamiliar with it, it is an amazing read! After 37 chapters of questions about suffering and tons of misguided advice from Job’s “friends,” God himself takes the stand. Here is just a portion of what He …
Forever Faithful
I love how faithfulness always seems to be a beloved character trait of God for those who have walked with Him for a long time. It makes sense, though, because proving yourself trustworthy takes time. On Tuesday, we had the privilege of hearing from one of our MUMS who has had a long history with …
Feeling Invisible?
On Tuesday, Shereen shared a video by Nicole Johnson who talked about being an Invisible Woman. I’m sure that title struck a chord with many of us. (If you weren’t there to see the video, take a minute and view it here.) As Nicole talked, I was reminded of one of the names given to …
Is He Enough?
by Carey Helmink I have been studying the book of Matthew with a couple of close friends for the past several months, and it continues to blow me away. I have been a Christian for a VERY long time and have read the gospels numerous times, but I continue to be amazed at what I …
Trust and Obey
by Jill Trucke We have learned if something is repeated multiple times in a Bible passage that is a hint of its importance. Isn’t that so true for our own lives too? How often does it seem like God reiterates his points to us through church on Sunday, and then again on Tuesday mornings, and …
