Today I had to start making apple pies already — Bethany even went and got some of the ingredients! I only made a few, and one is almost gone. I will be making pies all month now with all the apples we picked! I LOVE my apple pie recipe and have it to a science how I like it, and it’s my kids favorite apple pie now too! It is SUCH A CHORE to make them, but everyone LOVES them….

Great Bible study from Kim! “Father, I want those You have given Me to be with Me where I am, and to see My glory, the glory you have given Me because You LOVED ME before the creation of the world.” John 17: 24 There is a huge amount of our story that happened even before we were created! God’s LOVE for us started “before the creation of the world!” Through God we know that love is real, that it…
One of our fav traditions: Colasantis! As you can see, Hannah and Gabe, Nina and Matt, Bethany and Mike and Rachel all agree! What an amazing day together with my amazing family. I look around me here and don’t have to go far to count my many blessings. Each and every person is such a blessing. I get a kick out of just watching everyone! We first go apple picking, then to Colasantis, the petting farm and good eats, then to…
A great study from Kim… “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, …” Genesis 1: 26a I never noticed the word “our” before in this passage. I just remember that we were made in God’s image, but really it goes farther than that, we were created in the image of the Trinity. God was not alone, He was (and still is) part of a relationship! We were created out of relationship for relationship! Many…
Off to Palm Desert, CA for a trip that even my wildest expectations cannot compare to how wonderful it is. Just to be with Laurie and Michael is such a blessing. We love them so much. We have so much fun, laughing, hiking, tennis,…. from side splitting times to deep conversations, all the while doing what we ALL love MOST — There isn’t a moment on this trip that I don’t just appreciate beyond belief! See more pictures here: Palm…
Hi everyone, this is a little unusual for a “Collegiate Wonders” typical Bible study, but this is VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION for your generation right now. Please understand: DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT charge one PENNY on any “extras” until you are debt-free! Yes, that means no extra CLOTHES, no extra TRIPS, no extra “deserved” VACATIONS, no extra ANYTHING. No extra $5 items nor $10. THIS is the way my husband Gary and I got ahead. We followed scriptural principles…

Great study from Kim! “Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splender.” Ezekiel 28: 15a Lucifer’s heart became proud!!! We can learn much about ourselves from his actions and story…. From the book “Epic”-“Standing at the head of the vast legions of angelic hosts (millions, as the biblical record counts) was a captian. The most beautiful, the most powerful of them all. The commander of the armies of God. The…
A great study from Kim: “Do NOT be quickly provoked in your spirit, for ANGER resides in the lap of fools.”Ecclesiastes 7: 9 Anger!!! It eventually causes bitterness!Bitterness ROBS us of our JOY!!!! EATS AWAY at our spirit! and does NOT come from God!!!! God tells us “NOT to be provoked quickly!!”Even when…… someone cuts us off on the road! … someone yells at us!! … we find out others are talking about us behind our back! … we are…
