The bank, post office and dry cleaners had conveniently been drive thru, which allowed Richelle to color on her portable art set with crayons. The last objective before home was to stop at the nearby Farm Crest for a fill up, a gallon of milk and a block of cheddar cheese. When they pulled up to the pump, Randy got…

Web www.christianactivities.com //–> My son Aedan just got called in from the outfield to practice batting. He has a batting helmet on; he has his bat. His knees are bent; he’s leaning over the plate, and his bat is poised over his shoulder but not resting on his shoulder, never that. Three swings so far. A fourth pitch from the coach, and he finally makes contact. The ball rolls past second base. If it were a game it would’ve been…

Web www.christianactivities.com //–> This year, as in the past, many women (including me!) may slip a little lower in the pew if the minister reads Proverbs 31 on Mother’s Day. While we long to be an ideal wife and mother, the truth is, most of us fall far short of the woman portrayed in those verses. That woman is well respected and praised by her husband, her children, and the community. She runs an efficient home and business, provides every…

Web www.christianactivities.com //–> Dear Mom, Thanks for the note. Your timing is impeccable. While driving to work this morning I wept over the state of our nation and our world. I repented for not confronting sin and for being so passive about the state of our world. My prayer was that I would “DO SOMETHING” about it. I have written some poetry and I’ve done a few other things but is that all He desires me to do? I want…

Web www.christianactivities.com //–> I am a collector of quotes and little tidbits. While spring is in the air and most of us have probably tucked away our winter coats for good, I thought it appropriate to celebrate by sharing a few curious, little quotes from my journal.

Easter is the most important celebration for our faith and if we are not careful it can easily get swept away and diverted by the world’s commercial market and tradition. In our Christian walk, we have to face the fact that we are “in the world”… but not “of the world.” Being different and set apart does not mean being legalistic, arrogant, pious or self-righteous. Statements of faith should lie within the footstep behind us and also within in our…

All set for a mouth full of chocolate but ended up with a sparse bite of flavor! This hollow bunny is a great representation of Easter without Christ!
