It’s a Wonderful Wednesday to meet together in the Quiet Time Corner! 📖🌻☕ Today we read in John 20, following the events that took place after the resurrection of Jesus. I love seeing how Jesus dealt with the doubts of Thomas. Today’s scripture writing verse is 2 Cor. 5:18,19–let’s have a “ministry of reconciliation” today….

Thanks for joining me today! 📖🌻☕ We read in John 19 this morning about the remaining events leading up to the crucifixion and burial of Jesus. It is easy to feel the angst in Pilate’s words as he is perplexed about the Jewish leadership seemingly railroading one of their own, with false accusations, and seeking…

Good morning! His mercies are new for us today! 📖🌻☕ We begin by reading in John 18, and we see Jesus standing before Annas and Caiphas…looking toward the “joy that was set before Him”. Today’s scripture writing passage is Acts 7:59,60, where we see Stephen martyred for his faith in Christ and making much the same…
Triage, Homeschool Style
This content was originally posted at my Strength for Today blog 4/3/14. “My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.” Prov. 23:26 Our second grader has been learning a Bible verse for each letter of the alphabet. Above is her verse for M. She writes it a few times a…
You Threw Off My Groove!
This content was originally posted at my Strength for Today blog 4/23/14. Getting back into the groove…maybe…perhaps…by next week? Any other home schoolers who took a Spring Break feelin’ this? Ugh. Slow as molasses starting today, and each subject for the little girlie was backwards. Just so you know, homeschooling life is not perfect, even…
“I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General!”
(Originally posted at my Strength for Today blog 2/17/15) Thursday I was in military mode for our schooling. In case you wondered, this journey is not as easy as it seems. By itself, the concept of schooling at home is daunting…I mean, you are trying to teach your own kids, all day. Enough said. I share today’s skirmishes…
Guest Post: Redemptive Parenting (aka Sinners Teaching Sinners)
I’m working on moving some of my homeschooling content over from my other blog, so strap in! I think this is the perfect read for Christian parents at the dawn of a new school year. It will bring everything into alignment in answering the question, “Why am I doing this??” If you’re questioning yourself (yet…

Happy Friday! 📖🌻☕ John 17 this morning…He prays for you and me in this prayer. Luke 17:3,4 is our passage about forgiveness from The Ruffled Mango for us to write today. Seventy times seven–forgive as freely as we have been forgiven. Streams in the Desert speaks of “Wrestling with God”–a name change from “deceiver” to…
What School Looks Like This Year
This is the Excel sheet I set up for school this year. I began doing this last year, customizing it with her favorite colors and creating a new tab for each week so I have attendance recorded as well. I use Applecore via our SchoolhouseTeachers.com membership for grades and transcripts. Our daughter can also access…
