Our Anchor

April 22, 2020 By Dani Pettrey

Hi friends,  I pray you are healthy and safe during this time of crisis. I may have mentioned that I have been listening to Alistair Begg sermons via Truth for Life since my daughters were young and homeschooled. Every day we’d get our breakfast and sit down with our bibles and have what we called ‘Breakfast with Begg.’ My girls are grown, but I’ve kept the practice. I get my breakfast, … [Read more...]

In Jesus’ Footsteps

April 8, 2020 By Dani Pettrey

Hi friends,  I feel blessed to be with you today. With the pandemic and crisis surrounding us, I’m glad you took the time to visit with me today.

Battling Fear by Counting Blessings

April 3, 2020 By Jody Hedlund

I live in Michigan. And although Michigan is currently the state with the third highest number of coronavirus cases, my small community of Midland in the center of the state has only fifteen cases (as of the Friday of posting this). While we are relatively safe and sheltering at home, like everyone else we have to go out for groceries and necessities from time to time. One of my daughters is a … [Read more...]
