Week in Review (1-12-13)

We have been enjoying some unseasonably warm temperatures this week. While I know spring is still a little ways off, it was nice to be able to take the kids outside without having to bundle them up like Ralphie’s little brother on a Christmas Story.

My friend Abbi of Proverbs 31 Living recently shared how she prepares for the future by preserving and stockpiling various foods.
What do Google, FedEx, and Xerox have in common? I heard this post on my local Christian radio station read by the author himself.
This was an interesting read about Christianity in America today.
