Happy February! And Happy Scripture Memory Team day! I had the sweetest experience of being sung to that goes hand-in-hand with this month's verse, so here is my love song story: When I woke up, on the jukebox in my mind, a song dropped from my memories of being a child in the country church where my mom and dad would take us when we visited family here in the mountains.

Happy New Year and Happy Scripture Memory Team day! When I received this month’s Dwell Differently memory verse, it was like receiving a beautifully wrapped present from my own personal shopper.

Happy November, friends! Traditionally in November, I write daily in my gratitude journal; but this year, I’m doing what I’m calling “Pinecones & Praise” - little did I know that it would tie into this month’s Scripture memory verse. I’ve been thinking about Hurricane Helene and the wild adventure I experienced the day she blew through.
