What’s Going On?

November 20, 2018

Well, that was quite a crazy summer and year, really! We both moved in the spring, both graduated high school, both volunteered all summer at Arrowhead Native Bible Center, and both started full time jobs this fall. So, needless to say, we haven't been consistent in writing blog posts!

Now that we're starting to get our feet back under us, we plan to be more consistent in writing.
We will be taking turns posting every other week. Which works out for each of us to write one post per month. We feel it is a more manageable goal at this stage of our lives.

Please pray for us as we seek to glorify God through our writing. Pray that the Holy Spirit would move through this blog to save the lost and edify His people.

Thanks for your patience and commitment to read and encourage us in our mission to be eternally minded!

                                                                                                            

June 2018

Summer's coming! Due to our busy schedules, we will be posting every other week instead of every week. We hope you will continue to join us and share in the wonder of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

                                                                                                            

January 2018

We’re back from our impromptu Christmas writing break! We had a great Christmas and New Year and are praying that God will bring along many new and important writing subjects this year. 

It is of utmost importance to us that we post what God has laid on our hearts to share with you: the lessons we are learning and thoughts we are picking out of our devotions. Keep in mind that just because we are writing about something doesn't mean we are experts on the subject or are fully accomplished in that area of our lives (i.e. if we were to write about prayer, there is not a chance we [or God] are/is satisfied with our prayer lives. It is something we are learning and have felt honored to share with you.)

We would like to share some of our ideas for 2018!

#1: Guest Posts!
Brooke and I are in the process of contacting various pastors, leaders, and wise councilors to share specific thoughts with our Eternally Minded readers! We’d like to feature articles on:
     • Prayer
     • Gossip
     • Being lights in a dark world
     ... And more that have yet to be inspired! 

We would love some suggestions from you, our audience!

#2: Greater Quality Content!
Brooke and I feel that we aren’t doing all we can to ensure quality posts. Sometimes we forget or procrastinate, then BOOM: it’s Saturday and the post is yet to be written. We’re going to make harder efforts to write posts in advance, take time to edit them, so you are receiving our very best content.

#3: Video/Audio Posts!
Sometimes, we are known to write an epistle instead of a blog post. We are toying with the idea of recording ourselves talking about a topic so that you don't have to take a chunk of time out of your day to read it, but can watch a five minute video or recording while you're working on something else! (We think like multitaskers, can ya tell? ;) ) 

#4: We are introducing a new author!
A good friend of ours and sister in the faith has taken an interest in writing with us. We're so excited to welcome her posts every 5 weeks, as long as God gives her the ability and desire to continue. 

It is of utmost importance to us that we post what God has laid on our hearts to share with you, the lessons we are learning and thoughts we are picking out of our devotions. Just because we are writing about something doesn't mean we are experts on it or have fully accomplished it in our lives. We are humans, children of God, and as such, are simply clay in the hands of the Great Potter. We are praising Him for molding us into images of His likeness, and are praying He would do the same for you.


**We will try to keep you updated as well as we can! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to get a hold of us through our Google accounts, and we will do our best to fix the problem and satisfy you, our reader.**

Betrothed to Christ

I was reading in Exodus and was reminded of the beautiful picture of Christ and His bride. In Exodus 21:7-11, you find a peculiar law about maidservants: 1) She does not bide by the same laws as the menservants, which can leave their master after six years. 2) If her master who has betrothed her to himself is not pleased  with her, he cannot sell her to the gentiles, but must let her be redeemed; because he has dealt unfaithfully and deceitfully with her. 3) If her master has betrothed her to his son, he must treat her like his daughter. 4) His son must provide for her food, clothes, and duty of marriage and cannot diminish them if he takes another wife. If he does, the maidservant can leave for free. Weird? Kind 'a, but it makes sense. Then God popped a thought into my head about Hosea. Hosea was a prophet who was told by God to marry a harlot to illustrate God's love for Israel. Now at one point Gomer, Hosea's wife, left him for another man and ended up getti...

A Life Wholly True

...His wives turned away his heart. For when Solomon was old his wives turned away his heart after other gods, and his heart was not wholly true to the L ORD his God... For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites. So Solomon did what was evil in the sight of the L ORD and did not wholly follow the L ORD , as David his father had done. Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Molech the abomination of the Ammonites, on the mountain east of Jerusalem. And so he did for all his foreign wives, who made offerings and sacrificed to their gods.  And the L ORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart had turned away from the L ORD , the God of Israel...   1 Kings 11:3-9 Take careful note of this passage. What did Solomon do to make God angry? What was his great sin? Idolatry.  I didn't totally realize the concept of this sin until recently. Sure, I ...

Part Two: The Glory of God not Honored

Adam and Eve, the first humans created, committed the first sin at the beginning of time. God had given them a perfect garden in a perfect world, with no sin. He gave them only one rule: not to eat of the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil which He placed in the center of the garden. The Devil, Lucifer, an angel fallen from heaven, came to Eve as a serpent, and tempted her to eat the fruit of that tree. Eve yielded to him and furthermore Adam did the same. That was the first sin. You may think that if it was you in that situation, you wouldn’t do it. Don’t think that. We are all born with a sin nature. We are pressured with temptation every day. Whether we fall into it or not determines if we sin.  From the beginning it was God’s design for us to live with Him in perfect union. We were to reflect and represent God throughout the whole earth and therefore spread His glory throughout the world. God would walk and talk with us. We would be His people and He would be our G...
