The second week of Advent is upon us. Sunshine beams happy out my window this afternoon. I listened to Annie F. Downs’ Advent podcast on my way to Bible study this morning. This second week focuses on peace and last week’s centers on hope. Thought-provoking and beautiful. Let’s look inside the Explorer Bible for kids!It […]

The Wonder of Creation
I scanned back over the giveaways we’ve had at ADG in 2021. It was super fun to browse and remember! I’d forgotten some of them. We’ve had a myriad of lovely books, a Bible, and a game. My IG story archives are fun to look back into too. Last year about this time, we had […]

March Musings
The wind has been surging all around the eaves today. Gray paints the sky in the afternoon. It looks and sounds very March-like. I watch the tops of the trees swaying from my upstairs window. Baby wheat is beginning to think spring and waking up to green and grow. Where are you finding beauty these […]
Twas The Morning Of Easter Picture Book
Have you had winter and cold temperatures in your part of the country? We certainly have! Today it’s in the forties and sounds like we’re supposed to see sixties this week. I won’t turn that down. After below zero lows and gray, icy days, I’m doubly grateful for sunshine. Friday’s sunshine gave me pangs for […]

Pages & Projects {Felt Party Hats and Little Mole’s Christmas Gift}
Happy October!We’ve been utterly and completely blessed with GOING-ON-THREE-WEEKS of absolutely gorgeous autumn weather. There’s been little wind, cool nights, and seventy to eighty degree days.

Pages and Projects {Winnie the Pooh, Bible Journaling, and Whispers of Hope}
I’m currently working through this Whispers of Hope Prayer journal and devotional. I didn’t take time to show you the inside. My apologies. It’s a format I like. It gives a Bible passage to read, followed by a devotional page. Each day is completed with two pages to journal prayers. Beth Moore uses a P.R.A.I.S.E. […]
Little Mole Finds Hope
Hope. Isn’t this what all of our hearts need? Some days more than others. Sometimes it feels that hope has vanished. We can’t seem to see it. We can’t find it. Discouragement and heavy cares hold us hostage. Our world has felt crazy here in March with panic, fear, and trepidation dogging people’s days. Sometimes […]
Read a Bit {What’s So Wonderful About Webster?}
Hey friends! I’m excited to share this picture book with you today! If I’m honest, I will admit that it feels like to be a “good” Christian, I need to be this deep, theological person who uses lofty terms and grand words and is always pondering the in-depth mysteries of God. I do not minimize […]
Read a Bit {The Promises of God Storybook Bible}
How about a new series of posts? It’s not a new theme or some totally different jaunt than I’ve ever taken here at A Delightful Glow. Nothing life-changing.
