Saturday, July 27, 2013. The Challenge of a Chocolate Pie. Among our food traditions and addictions, there is one special dish that rises to the top. My mother's chocolate pie. Everyone who knows my mother knows she is a great cook. People love my mama's cooking. The woman can prepare anything she sets her whisk to. In our family there are several recipes we always want mom to fix but none can compare to.The Chocolate Pie. I didn't think so. Does God know how to give a pep talk or what? Believe Him. ...

The Archie Chronicles: May 2012
http://lisaarchinal.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 3, 2012. Yesterday I had the opportunity to spend time with a friend whose family has been rocked by the sudden death of a loved one. She shared with me how the brother of the deceased is struggling to cope. He holds his emotions together only to crater under the strain of grief. My heart breaks as I hear of this family's pain and I feel helpless, wanting more than anything to take it away. Where can we go when death is standing over us like a dark shadow? Jesus wept because he loves his pe...

The Archie Chronicles: December 2012
http://lisaarchinal.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 20, 2012. Who vs. Why. We've experienced so much sadness and pain over the past week. It seems like everyday there is more bad news. My natural tendency is to ask 'why? But what I need to seek is the 'Who'. My prayer for us in the wake of tragedy is to see God in such a way that the 'why' is no longer the issue. May God stand before you as He did for Job. May God's love overshadow our pain. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Buy Lisa's charming children's book NOW on her website!

I'm guessing no mom has held their newborn child and dreamed of rearing up their little one with low self-esteem and a plethora of insecurities. Then, why do so many kids struggle as adults with these very issues? I have a theory. Families are rushed and pressured to the breaking point. This often results in a half-hazard approach to parenting. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shal...

Monday, August 11, 2014. Getting My Back-to-school Act Together. Hey, girlfriends. You know what month it is? That's right, it's August and we all know what that means. Am I the only one that gets a small kick in my gut when I hear the word "August"? See if you can follow this simple math problem:. Back-to-school = 5 alarm clocks 3 daily lunches infinite homework. Therefore, August = 1 Stressed Mom. Here are some of my favorite tips I thought I'd pass along to my stressed out sistas. Tip #1 Family Meeting.
