She and Greg had just finished serving at the homeschool convention where she was invited to speak. They were excited to celebrate their anniversary with reservations for Sunday night to stay at [...]
From the archive: I decorate my home with reminders of Bible lessons. We have the Ten Commandments on our living room wall, and a ram’s horn on display.

Happy Mother’s Day. Mothers are precious gifts to their families, and the value of a godly mother is beyond measure. In the fifth commandment, Honor your mother and father (Exodus 20:12, 21:17), the word “honor” is to obey, to revere, to speak kindly to, to speak and think well of. ” For God said, Honor thy [...]
In the next 20 years over 50% of Americans will be diabetic and 44% will be obese. Many children eat donuts, cookies, cupcakes and candy on a daily basis. Going through the fast food drive in is like getting an aneurysm to go–serious illness will occur as a direct result of the consumption of these foods. [...]
From a Pulitzer Prize–winning investigative reporter at The New York Times comes the explosive story of the rise of the processed food industry and its link to the emerging obesity epidemic. Michael Moss reveals how companies use salt, sugar, and fat to addict us and, more important, how we can fight back. Every year, the average American [...]

I am making the switch from coffee to herbal tea. I’m drinking cumin, coriander, fennel tea daily (with a little berry herbal tea added). Studies show excess caffeine prevents our insides from absorbing all those vital nutrients from organic green smoothies and salads. Furthermore, tea is packed with bioflavanoids, polyphenols, vitamins and minerals that help ward off [...]
There is dangerous trend in several homeschool movements that focus on obedience to man-made rules instead of God’s rules. Legalism is essentially opposed to grace. Biblical submission teachings are distorted to the point that family life centers around the father of the home rather than on Jesus Christ. This legalism begins with a false teaching [...]
A green smoothie is a delicious drink made with green leafy vegetables and fruit. The fruit mask the taste of the greens. With one green smoothie you can consume 5-8 servings of fruits and vegetables! When I drink Green Smoothies I eat MUCH less and don’t feel hungry. There is a reason. If you eat process foods [...]
The saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” has truth to it.It is extremely beneficial to healing our bodies. My husband grew up with a bottle of vinegar on the table with every meal not knowing it is much more than a condiment cooking ingredient. It should be part of your first aid [...]

For decades dietitians have been educating the public about the multiple benefits of greens, but it was not clear how to incorporate fresh greens into everyone’s daily diet. The only option for eating greens seemed to be the salad. The problem is that in our industrialized world, the taste of greens is not as appealing as the stimulating taste of processed foods.
Heart of Wisdom (that would be me) publishes books on topics I am passionate about: Homeschooling Hebrew Roots Health and Nutrition In the last five years, I have had four heart surgeries as a direct result of the SAD (Standard American Diet). Last year, I watched my dear friend JoAnn devastated when her devoted husband [...]
I was so excited to find The Shack Revisited: There Is More Going On Here than You Ever Dared to Dream in my Kindle this week. I ordered the pre- release months ago. I have enjoyed over 100 hours of Baxter Kruger teachings from Perichoresis Ministries and I wanted more. When you combine Baxter’s Bible knowledge, wonderful Mississippi accent, deliverance from Calvinist upbringing, love [...]
Have You Ever Had One of Those Days?
You know the type situation I am talking about. You were up all night with a vomiting child, the phone rings at 7:00 a.m. it’s the Realtor with a potential buyer that has to see the house at 10:00 a.m. You scramble out of bed, throw the pile of soiled sheeting, wash cloths, towels from last night’s projectile vomiting episode into the wash, and rouse hungry children while hubby is in the shower.
I’ve visited hundreds of organic, healthy living sites and I’m amazed that most even consider pork a food. Satan twisted God’s Word to convince Eve to eat forbidden fruit. Today he twists God’s Word to convince us to eat forbidden foods. God did not change His mind about food nor change the biological structure of animals. [...]
For my poor daughter who had a memory lapse and can’t remember anything before she was 12 (1987). Pray for her. Read the story about these years here
Dyslexia is a learning difference that occurs when the brain does not properly recognize and process certain symbols. Dyslexics establish a different pattern of connections and circuitry, creating a different kind of problem-solving apparatus. I am dyslexic as are three of my nine biological children. My test scores in school were high but performance was poor. [...]

Yesterday, I was sick in bed (some bug ) watching hours of the the Boston Marathon bombings. Being sick I let the despair really get me down. In between the bombings and some family predicaments (long time trials) I started spiraling downwards. We are all runners in a spiritual race that get impacted by explosions. [...]

Jesus shared the Passover meal with his apostles saying, “I have been very eager to eat this Passover meal with you before my suffering begins. For I tell you now that I won’t eat this meal again until its meaning is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.” (Luke 22:15-16)
This is a photo of our Passover plate. It has a prominent place of display in a glass cabinet in our living room.I believe it is the one item in our home that the children will remember the most. It is my favorite holiday. Passover is April 7-14 this year. The Passover meal is called [...]
Bruce Wauchope, in association with Perichoresis and Transformation Media, presents a seminar discussing how theology, philosophy, spirituality and history has influenced the church’s views on God and the good news. Session 2 puts forward a Hebraic-centred, scriptural, life-giving good news message and explains the problems with Dulism. (In Session 1, there is a deconstruction of [...]
Filmmaker and writer Terry Jones discovered a colony of penguins which are unlike any other penguins in the world. Ostensibly filmed for a documentary, the video shows a colony of Adélie penguins suddenly taking to the skies as the astonished presenter, Terry Jones, looks on. The TV spot was filmed on King George’s Island, 1,000 [...]
