It’s the end of another week, and what a great week it’s been. We are happy to share with you that Debi’s “project” she’s been working on is a book based on the life of her Grandmother. This has been a dream of hers for over 20 years. It has been a work in progress for the past decade. Finally, we’ve signed the book deal, and it will be published early next year. We will be sure to let you know when it’s available for purchase.

Now for our “Specials of the Week!”

A Grown Up Marriage

• Change – How well do you embrace change? We’re not talking change outside of your marriage, but the kind that requires you to actually CHANGE? Great post!

Journey To Surrender

• My Wife’s First Post – In August we had the privilege of sitting down with Scott and Jenni for dinner. We listened as Jenni shared story after story of how Scott romances his bride.
