Thanks to some inspiration from my MAP leader I have found my way to the website called, "Blue Letter Bible." It is a great website for Bible study and commentary. I stumbled upon Dr. J Vernon McGee's, "Thru the Bible," radio program that takes you through the ENTIRE Bible a few verses a day in about 5 years! There is a guideline introduction that I am working my way through and then I will start in Genesis. I am pretty stinking excited about it.
For those of you that do not know who Dr. J Vernon McGee is, (I thought I didn't know either until I heard his voice) he is constantly played on 107.9. He passed away a few years ago, but his voice lives on in the teaching of scripture. He is simple, (which I kind of need) and very powerful. If you are looking for a new way to study God's Word, (like I was), you should check out the WEBSITE. I am sure I will be inspired to write down some of the things I will learn.
I discovered that you can download the entire 5 year program onto your computer. It takes a little time because you must download first the guidelines, then each book of the Bible individually. However, I am going to be out of town for a few days and I can put the few days that I need to listen to on my iPod so I won't miss a day!
If you would like to download the 5 year radio program that takes you Thru the Bible... HERE IS THE LINK. It is free, unless you wish to make a donation. May you be inspired to read the most amazing book ever made daily!!

My Family
Hello and welcome to my first post. I am not sure what I will use this for, other t
han to write about my life as a mommy and wife. I used to have a wordpress, but I can't remember how to log in and it seems as though this blogspot may be a little simpler to use. I am a first time mommy, my son was born on December 20, 2008. I have been married since June 14, 2003. I am not sure if there will be anyone interested in reading this blog or not; but I might as well start it just to do it. Why not right?
My laptop was in the shop because I dropped it on the floor and destroyed the screen, but Bestbuy fixed it so I am ready to roll.
I have decided to become a full time stay at home mom. This is somewhat of a scary thing for me, because even though I have claimed to trust Christ since I was 14 I have never given Him the opportunity to take care of me. I have always assumed that I could and should take care of myself. I have been afraid to let go and allow Him to steer. However, now that my income is no longer providing for my family, my husband will finally be allowed to be the full time bread winner and take care of us. This is scary because I have worked since I graduated from college and been in control and always had it all together. Now, I have zero control. I am sure God is saying, "FINALLY! Now let's get down to business." I am also excited to see what God has in store for my day with Kellen. What kind of adventures will we have, what will I be teaching him and doing with him to help him grow up to be a strong, happy little boy? The adventure is just beginning. And I can write about all of it right here.
