We were in a rough season. A valley of sorts. We weren't seeing eye-to-eye and every word said was being twisted and doused with lies. Even the best of marriages go through valleys where you simply want to run and hide for a few because it feels broken and hopeless to change. Fingers are being pointed and the blame thermometer is ...

Bible Stories vs. Memory Verses: The Ultimate Faith Face-off!
Which is more important...the Bible story or Memory Verse? This was a question asked in our ABCJLM Facebook Group. And, I completely understand the question because it can become very overwhelming covering all our children need to know by the time they are 18.

When a Door is Closed…
source And like that the door is closed. I am no longer the mom of littles. Yesterday I delivered all four of my children to elementary and middle schools to learn, grow, and love others for another school year. They are big kids now and I don't like it. My babies are growing up. Obviously I knew this day ...

Are the Current Events Causing Fear?
I am a news junkie. Each day I read the archaic information piece made of ink and paper after watching the news on TV. I feel as a Christian it is important to know what is happening around us in politics and society. But not lately. I know what I will hear if I turn on the news and unglove the paper. Hate. Lies. Corruption. ...

The multiple papers in the mail brought excitement and welcomed the kids to camp. While I loved seeing the smiles on their faces as they read the news, my concern in the envelope was the packing list. What did the kids need to bring and how many of each item? Thankfully the list was precise and numbers were included. But as the packing began ...
Please Don’t Overprepare
Every summer a range of emotions hit the ABCJesusLovesMe Facebook Group. Excitement. Anxiety. Being overwhelmed. Relief. New members to the ABCJLM family are easily influenced by the various posts in the group. Thus, every June, July, and August I post the same reminders to help encourage all ABCJLM users steady the emotions that ...
