Benjamin and I are college students, right? And college students are supposed to be poor. Everybody knows that! There are people coming out of college with thousands of dollars of debt right now, and we, of course, aren’t supposed to be eating anything other than Ramen noodles. The weird thing is, we’re really not poor. … [See more…]

September 3, 2015 by Benjamin Leave a Comment

Hey folks, we have a new episode of the podcast up! In this episode, we talked about how our lives fluctuate between busyness and laziness, and how the Bible lays out a response to both of those things.

September 1, 2015 by Meredith 3 Comments

I don’t know if it’s because school is starting or what, but like 20 times this week I have just felt this overwhelming sense of boredom with my life. I want things to be happening and for me to be doing interesting things and for something to shake up the routine. It’s not the same … [See more…]

Remembering

August 28, 2015 by Meredith 1 Comment

I love storytellers. (Which is good, because I am surrounded by them) Green family get togethers are just one story after another, and my side of the family also pulls out all the classic stories when we get together. (Never mention aardvarks to any relative of mine at Christmas-time…) Then my dad is a collector … [See more…]

How?

August 21, 2015 by Meredith 3 Comments

Forgiveness. All on its own, far away from us, it sounds harmless, easy, and refreshingly wonderful, doesn’t it? But when we have been deeply hurt, that changes fast. How is it possible to forgive in every circumstance? People do it. I have read stories and heard testimonies of wives forgiving unfaithful husbands. I have heard … [See more…]

8 Things to Be Thankful For

August 18, 2015 by Meredith 12 Comments

There is a man in our church who is just one of my favorite people. This man has white hair, hearing aids, and the brightest grin in the whole building. He always comes up to Benjamin and me with a joke or word of encouragement, and whenever you ask how he’s doing, he uses words … [See more…]
