So many of you reader-bloggy friends have jumped on board in the last few years. Which, I’ll have to say, is just awesome. Welcome. Most of you only know me as Annie in Nashville. [Or, I guess, Annie in Edinburgh.] I’ve been in Nashville since August of 2008, but before that, I was a hometown

Funny thing. You know on Sundays we’ve been talking about brave Bible characters – Jesus and King David, so far. I’ve also been getting a few guest posters- Marie-Claire and Jules, so far. Today I was going to write about Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, whom I like to call The Boyz. Yesterday I got my sister

Yesterday was hard. One of the hardest days yet. [Which is funny because a) I didn’t leave my home and b) I didn’t see a single human except my flatmate and the FedEx guy.] As I’ve said before, if I’m not honest in this journey, then I shouldn’t write about it at all. So here
I had a very exciting Sunday indeed. And I’m not simply referring to watching Downton Abbey with twenty college girls and then having to defeat this pile of dishes [though that was exciting and courageous]. Before all that happened, I hopped a train to St. Andrews on Sunday morning. Follow me here. My Dad’s first
Last Sunday, we talked about the ultimate example of courage- Jesus. I thought it would be cool to focus on a different Bible character each Sunday, with the following caveats: I don’t know everything that there is to know about the Bible None of these people were perfect I’m not necessarily going to talk about
