I have been “heads  down” preparing for a women’s conference hosted by my home church, Bethel Bible Fellowship in Las Cruces, NM.  The conference was this past weekend, and what a joy it was to see God moving and working in the lives of the women who attended.  Once again, God had me outside my “box”, learning to lean into Him even more.

The audio for the event is available, along with PDF versions of the workbook at this link:  restoringourhearts.com/conference-audio/

God designed us to be “in step” with Him.  That is when we will be the happiest, the most fulfilled, and the most secure.  My “ministry dog” Tillie does a great job of illustrating being in step with me in the video clip that goes with this post.

Obedience, Tillie, Videos

This will be my first attempt at taking one of my Bible studies that I taught in jail and putting it on the blog.  My classes are 2 hours long, with a solid hour of teaching material, so I will be condensing and breaking it into several bite sized pieces.  This is also my first study to feature video clips of my “ministry dog” Tillie!


I believe God put the idea in my heart to use a dog to teach His truth and demonstrate willing obedience in a way that would be memorable.  I prayed and asked God to lead me to find just the right dog, and I prayed He would use her for His glory.  I also spent time researching breeds and reading and studying dog training.  After all, you don’t pray for something and then just sit on the couch and wait for it to happen!
