the best gift: awake again at 3 a.m.

Why Am I Awake? Last night, like so many nights of late, I woke up while it was still dark. I quickly ran through the mental checklist. What’s wrong with me? Am I sick? Is it too hot? Too cold? Did I hear something? Is it too bright? Are the kids okay? For the love………….what…

15 confessions from a pastor’s wife

I’m only one wife to one pastor. And since it’s safe to assume that every single pastor’s wife is different from the next, it is clear I cannot in any way write this for the whole lot of us out there. I honestly believe there could be way more we pastor wives have in common than…

Perceived Perfection

Someone recently told my sister-in-law, after solely viewing the home page of my blog, that she would never read my blog because my “photos were too good and too perfect.” She went on to say that she refused to put herself up under that kind of condemnation every day because she only has one child…

You know something that blows my mind? Studies s You know something that blows my mind? 

Studies show more people are afraid of public speaking than they are of dying. Let that sink in for just a second.

That means that this room I am in, with these women here…there is likely more people that would rather die than get up in front of people…

and yet…they said “yes” even though they were scared out of their minds.

They are choosing to do the thing they once promised they would never do. 

That’s brave. And it’s incredibly inspiring.

My guess is, even if it’s not speaking in public, there’s likely something you know God is calling you to do and you’re terrified to say yes. 

You’ve been hesitating, waiting, hoping that little nudge you have buried deep and tried to ignore would just go away. 

But it keeps nagging. Keeps coming back up. 

If that’s you I want you to know this: God has always been in the business of calling the unlikely to do the impossible. 

He’s not looking for perfect; He’s looking for surrendered hearts, humble souls, that trust Him more than their fear.

This is where He has me right now. He’s asking for me to let go and trust that His way is better…and my fear no longer serves me. 

What is it that has you scared out of your mind right now? Is there something? If not, then good for you! 

But if so…also good. Actually, no, that’s even better. That just means you’re in the perfect place for Him to show up bigger than you’ve ever seen before. 

Go ahead, come with me…let’s take the next step. 

It’s time to move. 

It’s time to do the thing you’re terrified to do… because your obedience might just be the next big breakthrough. 

Our comfort zones are way overrated. 

He called you. He’ll equip you. 

And He promised to never leave you. 

Let’s be brave friends. 💕

DM me and share what you’re afraid of—I’d love to pray for you! #ccc25
Our Last Day at Glorieta 🥾🐰🌄🎻 The mor Our Last Day at Glorieta 🥾🐰🌄🎻

The morning started with a cowboy breakfast—biscuits and gravy, hot coffee brewed in a cast iron pot, the kind of slow, quiet start that makes you want to linger…for, say…forever…

We played horseshoes, tossed rings over bottles, climbed trees one last time, cuddled the bunnies again (because the girls just couldn’t stay away), rode mountain bikes, and hiked beneath the trees and skies almost too big to take in.

There was Bible study and another sweet date night.

This time a steak dinner, with some of the best corn bread I’ve ever had…and churros!! 

A live violinist.
A sunset that made us all grab for our cameras and a group pic that had us all laughing at just how much fun we all had together.

The staff handed out thumb drives filled with captured memories handed out like little time capsules.

And then—dancing. The kind where no one holds back, and everyone is smiling

We ended the night with deep belly laughs, late-night conversations with new friends, and that good kind of tired where your soul feels full in the best ways.

And now, here I sit—wondering how I could possibly put into words what this week meant to our family.

Glorieta Family Camp was more than just a fun vacation.

It was intentional. 

Thoughtfully crafted. 

The best kind of good.

From our five-year-old to our 19-year-old (and yes, even us grown-ups), every single person in our family was seen, valued, and delighted in. 

There was something here for each of us—adventure, beauty, worship, rest, fun, and space to be together.

And I can’t say enough about the staff. Every detail was considered. Every need anticipated. It wasn’t just camp—it was a gift. 

A place that reminded us who we are, what matters most, and how beautiful life can be when we slow down and connect with one another again.

If you’ve been looking for a meaningful way to invest in your family… this is it.

And if you book before December 5th, use code: MMW at checkout for 10% off.

Trust me—you’ll walk away with more than a memory.

You’ll walk away changed.

This one’s a long video… because it was a long This one’s a long video… because it was a long day! And I wouldn’t change a single second. 💪🌄🦸‍♀️🍦

We started early and ended late—this day was full in every way.

After sailing through the trees on the High Five, we played mini golf, soaked up a lunch devotional, and then dressed up for Superhero Night—where I may or may not have accidentally bought toddler-sized capes. 😂 

Thankfully, the kids owned them anyway and made it even more fun!

We joined the camp-wide scavenger hunt, and it was epic. Each kid took on their own challenge—puzzles, riddles, memorization, zip-lining, sledding, rock climbing, crawling through mud, and even getting dunked at the very end (Kate was such a good sport!).

We wrapped up the night with an ice cream party and another round of heights—zip lining off a building at night. I even went back to the zip drop. I could feel the panic rise again, but this time Kate was with me. She saw it in my eyes (and my panicked pacing!) coached me through it—-and I walked straight off the edge with her. No kneeling. No sitting. No tears.

And I realized something:
I can do hard things.
I am doing hard things.

I’ve spent most of my life terrified of two things: heights and public speaking. 

And this year? I’ve faced both. 
More speaking than ever before. 
More jumps than I can count. 

I’m certainly not fearless—but I’m learning what real courage is: doing it with the fear, not waiting for it to disappear (my little girls would be so proud of my for rhyming!)

My kids humble me every day. They cheer me on. They speak life. They teach me what it looks like to rise.

So I want to ask you…
What are you afraid of? Is there anything that just gets to you?? 

What leap is in front of you?

What voices are you listening to?

This trip reminded me that sometimes the fear stays, and sometimes it’s fierce. But when you’re surrounded by people who love you, remind you who you are, and walk with you through it—it becomes possible to do what once felt completely impossible.
