Post of the Week From Around These Parts:

What our Family’s Facing: “When Your World Burns Down & How to Answer the Question of Pain & Suffering

…. yeah, to be honest, this has been really painfully tender &, as a family, we are still trying to process…

But the deep epiphanies… and what happened that first night after a bit of our world burned down.

And the most soul-healing questions to ask deep in the midst of heartbreak & suffering… are profoundly changing our lives.


on the book stack at the farm

Brave Woman, Mighty God reminds us that the same mighty force of the Holy Spirit that empowered the women of the Bible to stand up, say yes, fight for justice, be the change, use their gifts, break toxic cycles, and so much more lives inside each of us. Find Laura at www.laurasmithauthor.com and order Brave Woman, Mighty God here.

The Life Application Study Bible has over 10,000 in-depth notes and resources that take the Bible off the page and into your life. You’ll take a deep dive into historical information, cultural context, and tenets of the Christian faith, but the extensive scholarship in this Bible doesn’t stop there. Taking it a step further, it helps you apply what you are learning to your life today.
