Hi Ladies. It’s Ashleigh again. We are on Week 7 in our discussions of Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole. Last week, I mentioned how quiet our discussions have been. I’ve decided, due to lack of participation, to end this particular book selection early. As we embark into the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year…
Hi Ladies. It’s Ashleigh again. As I sat down to write this post, I felt like Sid the Science Kid, tapping on my microphone and asking, “Hey, is this thing on?” (And yes, for the record, I do watch far too much children’s television.) It’s been a bit — okay, more like very — quiet…
“Charlie and the Christmas Kitty” is the humorous story of an unexpected — and at first, much avoided — friendship.

Rebecca Halton didn’t set out to have an affair with a married man. But for six months in her early twenties, that’s exactly what she did. The girl who grew up in a Christian home, attended a Christian college, and had always judged “the adulterous woman,” found herself in a situation she never anticipated. That’s…
Hi Friends. It’s Ashleigh again. We are on Week 4 in our discussions of Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole. If you have yet to comment, it’s not too late. The way this book is structured, you can comment at any point. So if you’ve yet to share your thoughts, jump in. Our readings…
So what exactly does Evans discover about biblical womanhood in “A Year of Biblical Womanhood”?
Hi Friends. It’s Ashleigh again. This post marks Week 3 in our discussions of Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole. If you have yet to comment, it’s not too late. The way this book is structured, you can comment at any point. So if you’ve yet to share your thoughts, jump in. Our readings…
Daughter of a Bible college student. Granddaughter of a seasoned minister. I could recite my dad’s sermons word for word. At a young age, I was acutely aware of the eternal. I practiced my evangelistic skills on my little sister and my neighborhood friend two houses down. No doubt impacted by my dad’s and grandpa’s…
Hi Friends. It’s Ashleigh again. Well, Week 1 in our discussions of Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole started off slow. Really slow. My hope is that we’ll gain momentum with each week. So if you’ve yet to comment, jump in. This week we read the chapters “Crucified by Love,” “Why Weren’t You Moses,”…
Hi Friends. Ashleigh here. Welcome to Week 1 of our fall book club. I’m excited to dive into our selection, Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole, with you. But first, let’s review the ground rules: If you must “blurk,” feel free to. But we’d much rather have you as an active participant. It’s just…
Although the American Dream includes a college education, it’s not always the path God takes individuals on to reach the goals and plans He’s prepared for them. Just look at actress and author, Candace Cameron Bure; CCM artist, actress, and author, Rebecca St. James; and my sister, Sarah Kittle. Sarah is the producer, director, editor,…
Hi Friends. Ashleigh here. I’m excited to announce that on October 5th we start our second book in our Ungrind Book Club. A book club fits Ungrind’s purpose perfectly. It’s our desire to churn out weekly encouragement that helps you, as Colossians 1:10 says, “to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing…
I made my way through the large glass doors that marked the entrance to our hotel on Fisherman’s Wharf, and had to pause. The crisp early morning air rushed to embrace me like a long-lost friend. Shrouded in a dense fog, its touch awoke my senses. I felt exhilarated. My eyes traveled longingly across the…
Today was one of those days. Let’s just say my three-year-old was in anything but rare form. By dinner, I told my husband, “She’s your child for the rest of the day.” I felt justified in my frustration and anger with her. After all, did she really have to scream as we walked the aisles…
