Yesterday, a friend of mine sent me a clip from a Q&A session that took place at the Truth Matters Conference. In this clip, Todd Friel asks John MacArthur, and other panel members, to give a one-word answer in response to the name Beth Moore. His answer was not one Continue Reading
As many of you know, I recently started an interior design business. It has been a blessing and joy to see my clients’ dreams for their homes become a reality. Since starting my business, I have gone shopping for furniture, lighting, curtains, shelving and household decor; rearranged rooms and spaces; Continue Reading
