Gratitude Journaling

In Maryland, the weather has been consistently irregular! This time of year it’s typical for us to have an 80-degree day and then the next day in the ’50s. I love to sit outside early in the morning with a blanket, a big mug of coffee, my Bible, and my journal. Somehow this practice fills […]

Freedom to Be You

August 10, 2020 by Tricia 2 Comments

I was recently interviewed by Andrea Fehr from Flying Free Ministries. To be honest, I thought we were going to talk a lot more about chronic illness.

My recent guest post, Pursuing a Happily Ever Marriage in the Real World has become one of my most popular posts. If you haven’t read it you can find it on Angel Penn’s website here. Writing a marriage post is not an easy thing to do. It’s probably why I don’t do it very often. Apparently, […]

Happy Marriage

Every little girl dreams of growing up, finding Prince Charming, having a beautiful fairy-tale wedding and living happily ever after!

You may be newly married or have been […]
