Signs of the Savior

Celebrating Christmas and Easter are two of the best times of the year. They allow us to reflect on the life of Jesus and all of His promises to us. They can also be some of the most stressful times of the year too.

Intentional Celebration: Simplified Gift-Giving

It’s the holiday season (echo: “The holiday season!”) around here and like it or not, toys are on the brain. Every year I feel like I’m scrambling a little bit, and asking myself what gifts we should get our kids this year and how can we make gift receiving meaningful.
