Warning: This post is random and completely pointless. Read only if you have nothing, and I really do mean nothing, better to do. I want to go away for three or five days and sit on a beach, take a nap in the sun, and then eat a heaping plate of friend shrimp. I’m [Read On]

6 Ways to Wear A Mustard Colored Cardigan One of my favorite go-to items is a mustard colored cardigan sweater.

We church people love cliches. It’s true. We’ve got our own vernacular going and when you decide you want in, we are happy to teach you our lingo. I’m pretty much convinced we say some things and don’t even really know what they mean. True story. Today we’re going to pick apart something [Read On]
