Maybe It Is Like Touching God – Laura Wifler

Have you ever thought about how we cannot touch God who is our greatest comfort but we can touch all these other great things? We can run our hands over our son’s soft cheek, the purple knit blanket made by our great-grandmother-in-law, the ceramic mug our father’s hands made, even as they shook with Parkinson’s. Maybe they are like touching God.

Sophie Hudson and Melanie Shankle – Raising Boys and Girls

Worship in the Word – Shane & Shane

Go to Sleep. Stay Awake. – Cassie Watson

To truly rest, I need to remember that I’m not sovereign. God is on the throne; he’s the only one whose every purpose will come to pass. He’s made me with limitations and blessed me by prescribing the patterns of work and rest. Not work and a little more work and maybe just one more task. But there’s also something deeper going on than just my failure to believe that God is always sovereign. My inability to sleep comes, paradoxically, from my failure to stay awake.

Should Christian Women Watch Redeeming Love? – Phylicia Masonheimer

I read Redeeming Love in college (I think? I can’t actually remember.) and have been thinking of seeing the movie eventually (not in theaters). Phylicia makes some insightful and interesting points over the book + movie. I personally didn’t finish this episode feeling shamed for enjoying the well-written fiction story years ago, or for thoughtfully considering the movie (I have other reasons for not jumping at the movie. Feel free to ask me about them!).

Jesus’ Prayer For All Time – Tim Keller

I'm Chelsea... a wife, mom and friend passionate about cultivating a rich life with God.

This blog is equal parts family stories, faith reflections and creative delight.

I read a lot. I eat peanut butter every day. I like shopping secondhand. I love hosting people in our home.

Writing helps me pay attention, and paying attention keeps me grateful.

Glad you're here!
