The past year and half has been a time of uncertainty and transition for Corey and me. As his NFL career has slowly come to and end, I have been sad to let go of the life we’ve known and have feared the unknown future. Even though I have a hard working and smart husband …
Last month, my dad kicked off his fifty state capital campaign, Decision America Tour. As he travels across the country he is holding prayer rallies at the capitol of each state, encouraging evangelicals to pray for our country and its leaders, to vote on biblical morals, and asking Christians to consider running for office at …
Weekly, I am complaining about the entire process of going to and from the grocery store. By the time I have fought the crowds, over purchased on impulse buying, drive home, put the groceries away, the last thing I want to do is cook and clean the kitchen. Lately, that has been my attitude on …
Do you ever think about how Mary must have felt after the angel Gabriel appeared to her? She was a virgin and promised in marriage, but Gabriel told her she would become pregnant and give birth to God’s son. We cannot imagine the fear that probably swept over her. How lonely she must have felt, …
The older I get the more I enjoy and have a greater understanding of my grandmother, Ruth Bell Graham’s, poems. Through her writings, I feel she is still teaching me a greater biblical understanding on life, on motherhood, as a wife, and as a child of God. I cherish her poetry more and more as I …
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Well, not really, it is still 90 degrees here in Florida, but I can pretend. However, it is National Collection Week for Operation Christmas Child! So, start packing your boxes and find local drop-off locations near you! (Can you tell what Margaret’s favorite part of the box was?)

Here she is at seven years-old—and she gets it. Many educated adults in this country don’t have the sense of gratitude this second grader has.
Corey and I recently had the honor of working alongside Samaritan’s Purse U.S. Disaster Relief team and volunteers who were working in the devasting aftermath of early October’s flooding in South Carolina.
This week I saw a friend post a screenshot from her phone of the app, “Moment,” which records how many minutes you spend on your phone throughout the day. YIKES! That sounds terrifying and convicting.
I’m sure, by now, all of you have heard about the recent Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage. On Friday, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution guarantees a right to same-sex marriage with a 5-4 vote, a devastating blow to people of faith. I have intentionally sat out of this conversation until …
Only 20 hours after the first earthquake, Samaritan’s Purse had team members on the ground, responding to the disaster.
It’s that time of year when cap and gown pictures are flooding my newsfeed and graduation announcements have arrived in my mailbox. I have a few words I’d like to share during this commencement season. ______________________________________ To the Graduate: Whether you are graduating middle school, high school, or college my message to you is the …
