Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 9 Comments/ 862

A cloud of witnesses. That describes that picture above perfectly. Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 4 Comments/ 477

You might disagree with me and you are definitely allowed to have a differing opinion but I think this is the absolute best time of the year. The markets and farm stands are full of fabulously beautiful produce and there is nothing better than sitting Continue reading →

Sometimes things roll along just as planned and then other times — poof—life takes a turn and you have to adjust. I had to make a few adjustments this past week and while it was unexpected, all is well. If anyone noticed I took an Continue reading →
