FREE Count Your Blessings Coloring Page

As a happy little summer to you, I’m sharing a printable “count your blessings” coloring page, FREE to download below! Counting blessings was on my mind this week. I can be such a task-driven person, that I forget to slow down and really savor and count the blessings God has given me. My mind moves quickly from thing to thing and I can easily land on discontentment. I have often thought of “counting” blessings as listing them, but what if it means more like valuing them,...

Jesus, Friend of Sinners + Jesus Meets Zacchaeus Luke 19:5 Coloring Page

Image: Zacchaeus in the Sycamore Awaiting the Passage of Jesus by James Tissot from the Brooklyn Museum. James Tissot painted a whole collection of painting on the life of Jesus that you can explore HERE. I have been meditating on the theme of “Jesus, friend of sinners” that I see as I read through the book of Luke. Here are two passages I find really interesting.

Printable Graduation Gift Print: Proverbs 3:5-6

My girls are turning 13 and 15 this month, and I have been reflecting on how much they’ve grown. They’ve both made comments to me recently that encouraged me and made me realize how they’re growing in wisdom. We have all the normal struggles, of course, but I am so proud of the women they’re becoming. One of you dear readers suggested a graduation printable a while ago and here it is! I love these few verses, but really...

Introducing two new Bible printable sets + a free sample coloring page

My business has changed a lot over the last 10 years! I started off making cute animal prints for nursery decor on Etsy. In 2015, I started writing this blog and created my first Bible verse printable. I was looking for Bible coloring pages to do with my kids, and I couldn’t find what I was looking for. That led to creating my printable Bible verse cards and coloring pages. In 2018, I started exploring watercolor, and that led...

On Substack today: how the testimony of women book On Substack today: how the testimony of women bookends the Gospel story--from Mary to Mary Magdalene. Plus, New Testament scholar Richard Bauckham's book on how the Gospel writers relied on eyewitness testimony. Does this matter for women today? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
