Profile picture for user Terrie Chappell
By Terrie Chappell, Friday, June 16, 2017
Using the Power of the Tongue
Some of the most positive experiences of my life have rested on words of encouragement or help. Each time I benefit from the positive words of others, I’m more motivated than ever before to use my words in an uplifting way.

Elephants Don’t Get Strong by Accident

Profile picture for user Valerie Creed
By Valerie Creed, Saturday, June 10, 2017
Growing Spiritually Takes Grace and Diligence
Riding an elephant in a Texas zoo was a fun adventure for me as a child. I remember feeling on top of the world observing everything from my high perch. Male, African elephants can reach a height of thirteen feet and can weigh up to 15,000 pounds. Being a mega-strong, terrestrial animal has its advantages—the predators tend to look elsewhere for dinner.

Coconut Christians

Lessons from the Coconut
Coconuts can drop from a swaying palm tree and then bounce and roll into the crashing surf causing them to float a thousand miles or more. Many of them find a safe haven on another land mass where they productively spread their seeds to grow new palm trees and continue the cycle of fruit-bearing.

38 Ways to Pray for Your Husband

Profile picture for user Terrie Chappell
By Terrie Chappell, Saturday, October 8, 2016
Praying for my husband allows me to have a positive impact in his life. Something usually happens when we pray for others, especially for our husbands. When we pray for our husbands, the hardness in our heart softens, our anger recedes, our hurts are healed, and forgiveness takes place.

Does Your Joy Show?

We Serve a Good God, Our Countenance Should Show It
Why did King Solomon want apes? Could it be he enjoyed their laughter? Apes such as chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans are among the very few animals who actually laugh.

God Always Has the Best in Mind for His Children
When I pray, sometimes I feel sad when God does not answer the way I think He should, but God always has the best in mind for His child when He denies a prayer request.

5 Consequences of a Critical Spirit

The Consequences and Cure for a Critical Spirit
I enjoy cooking, finding recipes, and sharing new meals with my family and guests who visit our home. Because of my love for cooking, I get especially excited when I have the opportunity to visit a restaurant that I have read about or seen advertised. And, if I happen to have the chance to eat at one of these restaurants, I always look to see what the critics have said about the food, décor, and overall dining experience.

Our Lives Are an Accumulation of Daily Choices

We Must Exercise Wisdom as We Make Choices
Several months after we moved to Lancaster, some dear friends of our family made arrangements for us to move out of our tiny apartment into a real house. Our apartment did not have air conditioning (which makes for rough summers in the desert), and the previous occupants had animals that left the carpets soiled beyond repair. Needless to say, I was excited and thankful to have a home. It wasn’t long before I began decorating it room by room.

5 Keys to Laboring for the Lost

Profile picture for user Terrie Chappell
By Terrie Chappell, Saturday, January 17, 2015
Every Lost Soul Is Worth Our Earnest Labor
Our spiritual birth into God’s family is a miraculous love-filled moment, as well! When Nicodemus came to Jesus by night seeking answers for his spiritual questions, Jesus told him, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3). We know that Nicodemus was initially confused by this statement. But, Jesus explained to him that salvation is a re-birth—a spiritual birth.

Spiritual Ornaments in the Life of a Christian Woman

Depend on God for Strength
When I was a freshman in high school, I had P.E. class first hour (which was 7:30 A.M.)! My class had over one thousand students, so a large percentage of us joined students from the other grades for first hour P.E. each morning.

Giving LIFE to Motherhood
“Mooooom, I need you!” That can either be a glorious call or words that make you want to hide. As a mom of seven, I have often heard those words. Being a mom isn’t an easy task, but it is a blessed one.

Traveling Light in the Christian Life
One event I look forward to each year is our annual summer family vacation. I have always loved this special, memory-making time with my husband and children. And while in recent days the length and locations have adapted to our growing family (yay for grandkids!), we all still enjoy this yearly time together.

Encouraging Others through Hospitality

Profile picture for user Terrie Chappell
By Terrie Chappell, Friday, June 20, 2014
Hospitality Is a Tremendous Tool for Encouragement and Edification
One of my first official attempts at gracious hospitality came early in our family’s ministry, and it was not what I imagined it would be. My husband had just started a couples’ class, and he was so excited the Sunday our first visiting couple attended church. Imagine my shock when, right in the middle of class, he invited them over to our home for lunch!
