What began as sharing the Gospel with my 2 y/o through stories & song has grown into a community of parents raising their Little Lights in the truth of Jesus.
I’m so grateful (and teary!) for where the Lord is leading the LL channel & all the new ideas. Cheers to 2026! ✨💛
I remember when my kids were little, there was a whole VBS circuit, that all the moms knew about. You could have your kid in a VBS each week of summer and have your summer childcare covered. There were charts, with churches and times, and everything.
Some of the older people got mad about this. Said this was about Jesus, not people getting free childcare.
And that's the wrong take. These kids learned to feel safe in church. They heard about Jesus. They met every pastor in town. The financial burden on neighborhood families were lifted. And you didn't see the fruit right away. But when there was a death in the family, or a tragedy, old VBS attenders knew who to reach out to. And they met with Jesus when it mattered, and the Holy Spirit controls the timing, not us.
Grace is lavish. The gospel is lavish. Just look at the parable of the sower. He's just throwing seed every which way, on rocks, on thorns, on good soil. Sow lavishly, because the seed we are sowing is lavish. Grace sown stingy isn't grace.
My goodness, everyone needs to go and read/watch "Babette's Feast." Learn something about the transforming power of grace when it's given generously.
Some pastors complete their theological education and assume they have learned all that they need to know.
Others understand that their formal training had only given them tools for a lifetime of learning.
In time, it becomes apparent who kept learning and who didn’t.
The cultural consciousness would improve if we stopped saying "pregnant" and went back to saying "with child". We need to retrain the collective subconscious through discourse that it is actually a child, your child, not a clinical condition.
If you aren’t ready to potentially have a disabled child then you’re not ready for parenthood. Your child could become disabled at any period in their life.
I guess I’m pro-life now. I’ve always felt women should have a choice but look how that freedom is used. To kill babies because they’re going to be male. To kill babies because they’re going to have abnormalities. To kill babies as a form of birth control.
It’s demonic.
Le vieux du quartier m’a dit : « N’oublie pas que la boussole a été inventée avant l’horloge parce que la direction est plus importante que le temps. »
Definitivamente, los que crecimos entre el 2000 y el 2010 ganamos en la lotería del cine.
Qué época tan dorada para ser fan de la fantasía. Nuestra infancia y adolescencia estuvo marcada por magia, piratas, profecías y la Tierra Media.

Evangelical Christian activists were mocked relentlessly for being right about everything
The mocking of the slippery slope was a war on basic pattern recognition
For most of human history, women did not experience children as some rare interruptions to adult life. Babies were everywhere, in arms, on hips, asleep in slings, playing under tables while bread was kneaded and laundry was folded. A young girl did not grow up in a world separated from motherhood.
So how can women want babies when they rarely see babies?
A baby changes the atmosphere of a room, people smile more, they speak softer, they are gentler, there is more joy.
Perhaps the desire for children has not disappeared nearly as much as we think. Perhaps many women have simply been separated from the very thing that used to awaken that desire in their hearts.
