A time for building
Dear Ekklesia Christian Church and our brothers and sisters in Christ. Peace be with you. Nehemiah speaks of rebuilding, revival, and reform. In the Bible he responds with his obedience to speak with the king and return for a time to Jerusalem to rebuild the wall. (Click here, this will take you to Nehemiah. This is…
The Biltmore- the dining room
In Matthew 22 Jesus begins with the Parable of the wedding banquet comparing the kingdom of heaven to the wedding banquet a king was holding for his son. All the preparations had been made and the invitations sent, but no one would come… Three times in the first four Gospels it is recorded what Jesus spoke at the Last…
The Biltmore- Home
We stood on the stone wall taking in the view. The gardens lie to the left of the home, the stables to the right, and the driveway continues along the gate to the front steps and then exits. Everyone that we meet associated with the home is kind and welcoming which is truly refreshing compared…
The Biltmore – entering the estate
As we approached Biltmore Estate in Ashville, NC, I had to contain my excitement as for some time now I had desired to see the house and the grounds. I must confess we had attempted to see the house once before and had only made it as far as the building that sold the tickets…
A New Years Present

Grandma Moments
In the wake of this week our daughter has participated in a pageant, our oldest son spent hours on a science fair project, and Grandma passed away. Not just any grandma, she was our last living grandma, my dad’s mother. I began to share with my kiddos some of the memories I had from childhood.…
Walking in Newness
Today marks a newness in my life. (Before all of the words come out into a jumbled mess let me gather them so that I can share them well.) For those who may not know me and for those who do I was lost in the wilderness. Today I stepped out of it and into the…
Getting Sucked In…
The boys and I quickly sat down in the movie theaters remaining seats that were down near the front. As the previews played for what seemed like the amount of time required for the movie itself, I gazed around at those in my line of vision. Here we all were taking time out of our…
Looking like my Mom and Dad
Over this summer I’ve had the opportunity to spend some time with my family. What a joy to be able to have that time of fellowship, laughter, and memories. Even when we go places and meet new people someone almost always comments on our likeness. For example when standing by my sister… “you two must…
