Tulsa is our blog's first media review. This almost feels like cheating considering it is a movie we found on Pure Flix. This movie is heavily advertised on YouTube and caught our attention. Needless to say, the movie is not overhyped; it is an entertaining watch that Christian and non-Christian parents could enjoy. We will … Continue reading Media Review: Tulsa
Bible Study: Strongholds
Everyone sins, every day. You, me, Mother Theresa; we are all sinners. There is a power struggle within us; sin versus the Holy Spirit. It is a war; one that we have to win, but can't win alone. Do you want to walk in the light or do you want to walk in the darkness? … Continue reading Bible Study: Strongholds
Bible Study: God’s Healing Power
If you have a chronic cough or chronic muscle pain, you have probably tried every remedy out there. We all have. We call our friends who are in the medical profession and get an opinion.

Bible Study: Following Your Heart
Harmony works remote, and her company purchased a fitness video series comprised of short 15-minute videos to do on your breaks to unwind. As she was doing one of these videos, the two of us realized how antithetical they were to our Biblical worldview. There is nothing wrong with working out! We love to work … Continue reading Bible Study: Following Your Heart
Bible Study: Self-Worship in Marriage
Western culture today is toxic. It is especially toxic to healthy marriages. Media has formed young people to feel like the Sun of their solar system. We see this all of the time.

The other person has always … Continue reading Bible Study: Self-Worship in Marriage

We use three genres: Media that glorifies GodMedia that neither glorifies or tears down GodMedia that does not glorify God We try hard to discern the media we consume so … Continue reading Media Reviews
Bible Study: Acceptance
Everyone thinks they are accepting of others. Nobody admits it to others, let alone to themselves, but we as sinful humans have acceptance issues. It is human nature to judge a book by it's cover, so how could we not do the same in regards to people? Even if you are sitting in church, you … Continue reading Bible Study: Acceptance
Bible Study: “Where are you?”
In probably the most well known story of the Bible, this question makes an appearance. After Adam and Eve eat of the forbidden tree and commit the first sin, God simply asks "Where are you?" This is a profound question. God is all-knowing and most certainly knew Adam and Eve's location. This question was deeper. … Continue reading Bible Study: “Where are you?”
Bible Study: The Culture War
Today the news is saturated with reports of war. Ukraine has been invaded by Russia. We spoke with a close family friend who is from Ukraine and still has family there. She was telling us some of the horrors she has heard: The airport in her hometown was bombed, no casualties. 30 miles away is … Continue reading Bible Study: The Culture War
