My Testimony

I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior at the ripe old age of 5. Some of you reading this may think that 5 is too young, but I knew the Truth, could answer all of the questions posed to me by my parents and my pastor, and so they determined that I would be allowed to make a public profession of faith, followed by a water baptism. I was so small that my feet flew up out of the water when the pastor dunked me. I’d love to say that my journey ended there. I’d love to say that I’ve been the epitome of the perfect Christian girl and that I lived every day in the subsequent 32 years for God. However, that’s not my story.

Plugged In

Hallowing Halloween

Posted by Hallee on Oct 31, 2009 in Biblical womanhood, Christian Faith, biblical manhood, inspiration

On this last day of October, children in the US will be carrying bags filled with sweets. Thinking of them can remind us to ask: “What is filling the vessel of my life? Is it a bitter attitude that leads to foolish disputes and strife, or is it a sweet spirit that leads to righteousness, faith, love, and peace?”

Praying for God’s Will

Posted by Hallee on Oct 13, 2009 in Biblical womanhood, Christian Faith, Prayer, biblical manhood

“I prayed to God to be able to go on a mission. But when this happened, I followed up with a prayer to God and said, ‘But I meant working in hurricane cleanup or something. NOT South Korea!’”

God is so amazing. He has supplied each of us with a gift that is ours and ours alone.

A Different Kind of Housecleaning

Posted by Hallee on Sep 25, 2009 in Biblical womanhood, Christian Faith, Parenting, Sex, biblical manhood, holiness

In the course of the last year, we’ve been working on giving it ALL to God, to make our entire lives – as individuals, as a married couple, and as a family – over to God and over to what He would have us do for Him, so that whatever we do will be used to glorify Him.

Making over our money, totally

Gregg and I recently made a commitment as a couple and as a family to get out of debt. We have a number of motivating factors for this, but our primary motivation is because the less money we’re paying out to interest payments or what have you, the more we have to help further God’s kingdom.
