A Womans Guide to Meeting God
It’s been a busy few weeks at the Jones house. After speaking last weekend in Atlanta I drove directly to Tuscaloosa to get Ashton settled into school (and yes, I still go back to school shopping at Target with my college sophomore and LOVE it!) Once home, Kylie and I hit the wedding ground running, […]
Hey Sweet Blog Friends, I couldn’t let one more minute go by without letting you know that my book Raising Kids with Good Manners is FREE TODAY ONLY. Almost too good to be true, huh? But it’s not. So if you love to read on kindle, click over to Amazon, Barnes and Noble […]
On Friday night she said “yes”! Their love story started years ago. Kylie was only 14, too young to even date. Tim spent hours at our house and with our family. Patiently, they waited, dated, went to different colleges and graduated, got jobs, saved money. Two weeks ago JP got “the call”. “I’ve never seen […]
I was irritable last night. Like, everything you’re doing-is bugging me, including the way you’re slurping that stupid Popsicle while mindlessly watching TV, irritable. It wasn’t pretty. I didn’t start off the day that way, though. I started off early, feeling great. I even worked out before one of my dearest friends popped over for lunch. […]
Are you a list maker or a “live by the seat of your pants” girl? I like my “to do” list. It keeps me on task. Except when it doesn’t. Like this week. Interruptions, spur of the moment events (some of them fun; some not-so-much), unforeseen traffic jams and plain old summer laziness converged to […]
I didn’t mean to eavesdrop. But I’m kind of glad I did. “Do the hard stuff so you can get to the good stuff”. I overheard my husband offer this advice to someone going through a rough patch in their marriage. Smart advice for just about everything in life, don’t you think? Summer is […]
Father’s day is around the corner but not everyone had a great father. My husband didn’t. Not because his dad was a bad person; simply because my husband’s dad died when he was only nine years old. JP was the youngest of three children. Their mom was left nearly penniless (he had no life insurance) […]

Somewhere along the way I lost perspective. For as long as I can remember I’ve equated serving God with helping “those people over there”. The orphans in Africa. The poor in our inner cities. The crowds who line up at the food bank my daughter and I volunteer for. My concept of godliness also included […]
