I am not the only Christian blogger that has trouble coming up with post ideas am I?  Today is one of  those days.  I just cannot come up with an real ideas about what to write about.  My mind has just gone blank.  This is where a list of possible blog topics would come in handy if I had actually made that list. So today it is my goal to come up with a list of possible blog topics all about “combining faith, family, and business”, since that is [...]

Staying Focused

photo credit: piermario One of the challenges I face daily as a work at home mom is staying focused.  I don’t want to say that kids are a distraction because I don’t like the way that sounds but they do contribute to my lack of focus at times.  Another big distraction for me is Twitter and online communities. My biggest distraction is myself.  There are times I just can not shut down my brain.  I come up with new ideas and what to start work on those before I finish [...]

Does Your Family Help You Blog?

Do you let your kids help you blog?  Is blogging a family affair for you?  I personally like to include my children when blogging if I can.  It’s not always easy to do. I started blogging because I wanted something that was mine.  I had just quite my job to become a stay at home mom and I needed something that did was just mine and blogging filled that void.  Overtime however that need changed. Now I want to include my children and family if possible.  I want them to see [...]

Blog On These Things

Should You Combine Your Faith with Your Blog?

I think you should.  Your faith is a part of who you are.  By not mixing your  faith with your blog you are denying not only yourself but your [...]

Are you afraid?

photo credit: carfAre you afraid to show your faith on your blog?  I think it a very common thing.  People are afraid of being ridiculed or scaring people off.  A lot of religious blogger are afraid that people will think less of them if they blog about their faith.  I think that is ridiculous! How are we suppose to engage readers and gain their trust if we are hiding something from them?  Now your readers probably don’t even realize you are hiding something but if you are afraid of sharing [...]

Pray For Your Blog

As a Christian I cannot fully express the importance of prayer in every aspect of your life.  If you blog, that is just an additional aspect of your life you need to be praying for. When I began thinking about selling Mom Giveaways I started by praying about it.  I asked the Lord if it was the right thing to do, to show me who I should sell it to, and how much to ask for it.  After praying about it for about 2 weeks, I finally felt at peace about [...]
