BOLD Women in Ministry

Today, I am beyond excited to send you over to my friends at Broken Beautiful BOLD Ministries, where they have featured my blog as one of their BOLD Women in Ministry! Many of you out there reading may not see blogging as a ministry, but here at home in front of my computer, I feel as though I am in ministry.  Writing is a gift God has given me to share with others.  How I share my gift with others is by encouraging others to continue in their walk with God and not to give up even when the going…

Work-in-Progress Wednesday: Gearing Up

This week at Making the Most, I'm gearing up to get back to work.  Yesterday I spent a couple of hours with my dad cleaning up his work space.  Let me just say that I had an extremely difficult time wrapping my head around the instructions, "Clean up the trash, but don't organize anything."  (I'm an organizer, so these kind of instructions grate on my nerves like nails on a chalkboard.)

Work-in-Progress Wednesday (8/19/15)

This week is a busy week as we prepare for school (yes, we start later than most).  We found out our teachers yesterday, and we're looking forward to Meet the Teacher Night later this week.

I am also thrilled to be working on my second sponsored post and in the process of negotiating a third.  This means that things are going well for the blog (thanks…

Work-in-Progress Wednesday: Things to Look Forward To

Today I am frantic, scrambling to get things done that need to be done while certain kids are away with certain grandparents.  There's so much to do, and there's so little time!  I hope I'm not the only one who feels that way.  Regardless, my hope is to publish a couple of posts ahead of time.  Here are some things for you to look forward to in the next couple of weeks, along with the usual Scripture Sundays, Work-in-Progress Wednesdays, and my Saturday goal-setting: Copycat Starbuck's Double Chocolaty Chip Frappuccino Recipe coming TOMORROW, Thursday, August 6th A Review of TobyMac's…
