Serious About Faith. Light-Hearted About Life.
In a previous life, I liked to play it safe.
Oh, who am I kidding? I STILL like to play it safe. Except when it comes to living for Christ.
I learned quick, fast, and in a hurry, that when we live a dangerous life for Christ, there is no safer place we could be. [Read more…]
I am so excited for this vlog.
Is it my best, most professional work? Nope. But with my “special” guest, it sure is cute and entertaining. (Hint: My guest is 10 months old and likes to clap a lot. As you will soon notice.)
Over the last several months, I have really been praying about how to “balance” being a mama, wife, minister and all of the other roles God has called me to in life. Here’s a short video to share some of my insights. [Read more…]
There are a lot of books, movies and discussion groups out there that always seem to be attempting to answer one question:
“What is the meaning of life?”
It’s a good question, and a hard one at that. But I don’t think the answer is going to be found in a Hollywood production or just any old book.
For me, my heart knows what counts. [Read more…]
Ahhh, do you smell that? Tis the aroma of Friday.
And around these parts, Friday can mean only one thing: It’s FIVE MINUTE FRIDAY time.
That’s right, each week I join in the #FMFparty by linking up with Lisa-Jo Baker. She gives us a prompt. Then we write. For five minutes.
It’s unscripted. It’s unedited. It’s five minutes of pure word adrenaline.
I’m getting all fired up. Let’s get this party started, shall we?
Today’s Prompt: Encouragement
AND GO! [Read more…]
Welcome to another week of our Everyday Jesus link-up. Be sure to link-up below this post, comment on your neighbor’s blog and share with your friends… Because Jesus is everywhere, everyday!

It is already the middle of January and for a lot of folks. the Christmas/Advent season feels like it happened a bajillion years ago.
And that might be a relief. But for our little Knobloch family, the lessons learned during Advent 2013 have stuck with us. In fact, I wanted to share a few of our Advent Adventures with you today. [Read more…]
A while back, a good friend of mine approached me and said this:
“Sharita, I love when you pray out loud. Your prayers are so moving and real and you don’t seem nervous at all. How did you learn to do that?”
I said thank you (and still give God all the glory) then I pondered for a moment and answered the best I could on the spot. But really, a loaded question like that takes awhile to answer in full, so of course I wanted to shed some light on the topic with all of my loverly blog followers. [Read more…]
Next Monday is Martin Luther King, Jr. day.
This day means much more than just a day off of school and no mail delivery.
Whenever I think of the great MLK, I think of service. I ran across this quote a couple of months ago and have been waiting to work up a graphic and share it with you.
Now seems like the perfect time. [Read more…]
I saw a quote recently (I think it was on Pinterest) that said, “Cookies with raisins in them are the reason I have trust issues.”
I laughed. Because it’s true. There’s been times where I was overjoyed to chomp down on a warm, soft chocolate chip cookie only to have my heart shatter in a million tiny pieces when I realized that those dark brown spots were not in fact bits of heaven in milk chocolate form, but rather dried fruit.
And I am only being SLIGHTLY mellow dramatic here.
But honestly, I have trust issues that go deeper than the age-old chocolate chip vs. raisin debacle. [Read more…]
Hiya, peeps.
It’s Five Minute Friday time, that moment in the week where I link-up with Lisa-Jo Baker, she gives us a prompt and we write. For five minutes flat. No editing, no over thinking.
So how’s about we cut the chit chat and get to crackin’, eh?
Today’s prompt: SEE
AND GO! [Read more…]
It has been SUCH an incredible blessing to build, grow and host 7 Days Time ministry the past couple of years.
We’ve been able to write (a lot!), serve through our Factor of 7 experiences, pray, coach, encourage and hook folks up with some coolio Jesus freebies.
Now we are digging even deeper to build this remarkable online God-community. I would like to introduce you to a new dimension of 7 Days Time… We are entering the exciting world of hosting a link-up. (Insert profound trumpet sound here!) [Read more…]
It's been awhile since we have posted a fresh Factor of 7 here at 7 Days Time. We've done a few small ones over the last several months, but we wanted to share one of most recent random acts of kindness with you. Because it was fun. And hey, who … Interested? Read on...
So... let's get serious. (Well, not TOO serious.) Here at 7 Days Time, we have four coaching packages to choose from. As we work through your initial consultation call, together we can determine what package will best suit your coaching needs. … Interested? Read On...
