For Whom Do You Carry Your Stone?

Kindred Grace Team · 6 minute read

by Elisabeth Elliot Every one of us who loves Jesus Christ is meant to reveal that love in the way we live. Missionaries are meant to be people who love Him enough to carry that message to others, whether they must cross an ocean or simply cross a street. When Jesus lived here on earth, His life witnessed to the truth, every minute of every hour of every day of every week of every month of every year. He did always those things that pleased the ...

One of our favorite parts of the day is reading the emails you write us here at Kindred Grace. Sometimes, you're writing with prayer requests or to share a story close to your heart.

Around the Table with Shauna Niequist (a trio of reviews)

Around the Table with Shauna Niequist (a trio of reviews for #MarchOfBooks at @KindredGrace)

Kindred Grace Team · 6 minute read

by Gretchen Louise and Emily C. Gardner Gretchen: I'm funny about getting new books by an author I haven't read yet. It doesn't matter if half the internet is talking about them--I usually wait until a dozen friends have told me, "You will love this book" before I actually pick up a copy. Such was the case with Shauna Niequist's books. Bittersweet actually sat in a stack of books on my bedroom floor for almost a year before I dug out the ...

A Quiet Person in a Noisy World

Kindred Grace Team · 5 minute read

 by Denise J. Hughes The small bell on the door announces the arrival of more guests. The store resembles a living room — with cushions on the floor for reading and toys in a basket for playing. This humble bookstore boasts the charm of a private enterprise. It’s the kind of bookstore I love most. My children are accustomed to our monthly visits, and they know to use our library-quiet voices when we’re here. So my youngest daughter tugs ... Read More about A Quiet Person in a Noisy World

Learning Styles: One Homeschooling Momma’s Inadvertent Journey

Kindred Grace Team · 7 minute read

by Simply Darlene God, the Creator of the heavens and the earth and all the animals of the sea and the birds of the air and the critters of dry land, is also the One who made man. And in making us, He created us in His image (Genesis 1:27); but, He also swiped both our outsides and our insides with His varied brush stokes of individualism. Because all of this God-given uniqueness is sometimes hard to understand, we usually turn to ... Read More about Learning Styles: One Homeschooling Momma’s Inadvertent Journey

On Writing from the Heart

Kindred Grace Team · 2 minute read

by Nicole Unice The summer that I wrote my first book, I got a tattoo on the inside of my wrist. I didn’t get it to be a cool “rebel” Christian. I got it because it was my attempt at making myself write honest. The tattoo is one Greek word. The word is “tharseo” and it means “take heart.” As in, “in this world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). As in, “Take heart, daughter, your faith has healed ... Read More about On Writing from the Heart

On Girls, Boys, & Brothers

Kindred Grace Team · 3 minute read

by Eleanor Hunter, late 1800's Think a minute. Do you never snub [your brother] or criticize him or make fun of him? Do you never dispute with him? Do you constantly think of little things to do that will please him? Are you gentle and sweet in all your ways with him always? If you are not, you do not love him enough, for it is in such ways that sisterly love is manifested, and I do not think the boy ever lived who could resist a kind and gentle ...

If I have not love…

Kindred Grace Team · 2 minute read

If I know the language ever so perfectly and speak like a pundit and have not love that grips the heart, I am nothing. If I have decorations and diplomas and am proficient in up-to-date methods and have not the touch of understanding love, I am nothing. If I am able to worst my opponents in argument so as to make fools of them, and have not the wooing note, I am nothing. If I have all faith and great ideals and magnificent plans and ...

What is grace?

We'd love to tell you a story... We believe there is no room for self-righteousness or for self-condemnation in hearts that have been given life by His transforming love.

He walked straight into a story of brokenness and pain. For us. And grace is the ability to fellowship again. Read more...
