Praise: God’s Antidote to Discouragement

February 7, 2018 by Kathleen Bolduc

Did you know there's an antidote to discouragement? And it works almost immediately, if we can only remember to pull it out of our spiritual tool kits and use it! What is it? Praise! Some of you may be thinking, Really? You don't know what our family is facing on a daily basis! I get it. Sometimes I feel like my prayers for healing within my family (autism, bipolar disorder, traumatic … [Read more...]

The White Noise of Disability

February 5, 2018 by Sarah Parshall Perry

It’s my birthday. What do I want, you ask? A little peace and quiet. That’s all. I want the fighting to stop, and the doors to stop slamming, and the dogs to stop barking, and the hollering for “can you bring me up a whatever” to just cease for a blasted minute, because kids are loud, and ours are louder. They are a next-level kind of loud. The loud of special needs and mental illness that … [Read more...]

Please Excuse My Poor Church Attendance

January 29, 2018 by Evana

I grew up in a little church in a small town. It was one of those churches where everyone had “their” seat. If you were missing from church, there was a genuine concern, because you just didn’t skip church. Church attendance was highly valued during my childhood. My father had the opinion that if you were a member of a church, then you should support it with your presence. Attending church … [Read more...]

God’s Surprises

November 8, 2017 by Kathleen Bolduc

November. Not my favorite month of the year. Darkness draws in as days shorten. Temperatures drop. The furnace hums. Coats, scarves and hats hang from the hall tree. I’m constantly wrapped in an alpaca blanket, trying to stay warm. I love the glories of fall foliage, but some of us (me included!) suffer from SAD—Seasonal Affective Disorder—so this can be a tough time of year. No wonder … [Read more...]

Eyes Are the Windows of the Soul

August 16, 2017 by Kathleen Bolduc

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “Eyes are the windows of the soul.” Jesus said it a little bit differently:  "The eye is the lamp of the body. You draw light into your body through your eyes, and light shines out to the world through your eyes. So if your eye is well and shows you what is true, then your whole body will be filled with light." Matthew 6:22 Both sayings makes me think of three … [Read more...]
