As mommas, we all need moments to simply pause and take a deep healing breath. Time to push the reset button. We need other mommas who remind us of what's really important---of WHO is really important! One of those friends for me is Lisa Stogner. It is our prayer at Heart of Womanhood Ministry that [...]

During a short weekend trip to the Great Smoky Mountains, my hubby and I discovered that the black bear became far more visible and active since fires ransacked that region several years ago.

In a world where we try to control as much as possible, one thing we know as mommas is to "expect the unexpected!" This month's From the Heart Blog is a creative dialogue between a mother daughter pair (Diane and Christina Cullen).

But as a sports mom I'd like to expand that word picture to suggest that life is more like a track meet (a kind of marathon, right?) Any mom who has endured this spring sport staple knows what I'm talking about. Invariably [...]

Darisha Bishop is a pastor's wife, a mother to a full house of teens, and is a Proverbs 31 woman who is "clothed with strength and [...]

Because the month of March in Kentucky is known for dramatic changes in weather, each day is fun to track whether it is more like a Lamb or a Lion. If it is extremely cold, windy, or stormy it is said to like a Lion. If its calm, warm, and mild then it’s described as [...]
