Chicken Pot Pie
The thing I love most about chicken pot pie is having the perfect ratio of a flaky, salty, yummy pie crust to the savory filling…I think this pie recipe nails it – in my humble little opinion. I prefer to make this in individual oven-safe bowls to get the crust to pie ratio even better.

This legacy of faith is truly the heritage that…

Faith Beyond Feelings
[excerpt] “…and while salvation did come and has come – for those people gathered, shouting, and hopeful – only a few days later that very fickle crowd turned their hosannas to crucify Him.

Farm to Table and Counting the Cost

The Idolatry of Hope
Hope is either hard to have or it’s hard to shake. We need it. We long for it. We feel it out there…but hope becomes an idol when we treat it as our focus. When the intangible idea out there of something that might happen becomes more important than the reality of what is. Hope…

I Should be Able to Handle This
A stressful day, a daunting IRS form, and an uncomfortable realization: the battle wasn’t the paperwork—it was the story I was telling myself.

Perhaps it’s about learning where to turn…
