Last month I wrote about going “all in” with God. This month I want to tell you what going “all in” has looked like for us over the last several weeks. The week of my birthday, two life changing things happened in the Walters household. Brian, my seminary graduate husband, was offered a job in…

This Year I Am Going ALL IN
Today is my birthday. Today I am 34 years old. I really don’t feel 34. I feel somewhere between 28 and 30, honestly. But alas, one cannot change one’s age or turn back the wheels of time, so I am willingly settling into my mid thirties today with quiet confidence that this is going to…
Thirteen Years of Passion
In 1998, while a college student at Union University, I traveled to Texas with a group of about 200 other Union students to attend Passion 98.

Peace and Joy
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings,…
Setting the Stage for Holy Week
While I realize we are well into Holy Week, I wanted to share a video with you. This is a collection of photos I took while visiting Israel in 2008. I am a very visual person and seeing the places where the events of Holy Week originally happened helps me focus and be in a…
Show Us Your Life – Mission Trips
My dear friend and fellow blogger Mrs. Patra introduced me to a new blog where they have this series “Show Us Your Life” where other bloggers are invited to share links to their blog about the top de jour. Today the topic is Mission Trips and Patra promptly passed along her encouragement to me to…
The Adoption Dress – The Blessings and Spirit of Adoption
Adoption has been a “buzz word” in my life lately. I have two good friends at church who recently became adoptive parents and I have another good friend who was sharing some stories with me about her work at a local adoption agency. Because I have a heart for missions, I have often thought through…
