I'm not gonna lie: yesterday was the BEST Valentine's Day I have ever had—and you know what? It was simple. Just me and my man, eating chicken in the back of the mini-van. Yes, we forgot to pack silverware and ended up eating our dinner with the help of Jay's Leatherman knife, but that didn't dampen our fun at all. The point wasn't that it was glamorous, the point was that it was intentional. Join...

Are you SHINING for the Lord? Join Heidi as she talks about the danger of "acceptable" sin and why God's Word says we need to master it!

The role of women seems to be misunderstood in our culture in a fairly grievous way. We're told that a wise woman builds her home. Today I'm talking about what that looks like (and what it doesn't look like). Homes are the foundation on which our society is built, and we have an opportunity to be the voice of Jesus to a generation who has lost its way. Join me, and let's start building!

All week we've been talking about sex, and today, we're finishing our honest discussion... his view and mine, of the good (and the not-so-good) about sex and marriage. Today we're talking about life outside of the bedroom, and how it affects our relationships. After nearly 28 years of marriage, we believe it's good and it's worth prioritizing. Don't miss it!

Are you ready to change the cultural narrative about sex? Today, my husband is joining me and we're having an honest discussion...his view and mine, of the good (and the not-so-good) about sex and marriage. The takeaway? After nearly 28 years of marriage, we believe it's good and it's worth prioritizing. Listen in!

It's so tempting to push off that hint or snuggle from our husband at the end of a long tiring day, and get distracted by the laundry we need to switch and the clothes that need folded (right in the middle of our bed), right? But God' designed sex for our GOOD! which means it's worth prioritizing. In this three part series, we're talking about God's design, his needs, her needs, and more!

It's counter-cultural to put our marriage first, yet that's exactly what God wants us to do - even when we have kids - and there are some specific reasons God designed it this way that really are for our good.

We are frequently asked some questions about the number of kids we have, why we had so many, how old we were, and the big one: what we think about birth control. And I'm here to say that I won't tell you! But I do have a lot to say about it having babies and what the Lord says about children, so listen in today.

It takes a lot of work to train our children, and while we spend a lot of our time and mental energy focusing on it, there is a point where we can forget whose job it really is to save our kids. We can wear ourselves out and forget that God is mighty to save, and it's His job to begin with! So relax, Mom. Do your best in training and remember that our great God created your children for His glory....

I recently got an email from a mom who is having some trouble disciplining her kids. I’m sure we can all agree we have trouble with that from time to time – right? Parenting is not easy. God wants to shape you, mold you, through the process of parenting your children. Listen to part 4 of 4 as we talk about arguing in our kids, and let's talk through how to replace that with humility and respect!
