Ruth’s Roundup – November 2021
When I get a moment (they are few and far between, but few is still something, right?), I tuck into a book, read an article, come across a thought-provoking message and think, this needs to be shared. Ruth’s Roundup is a post released once a month where I will share with you some…

BOOK REVIEW: A Certain Brightness by Philippa Ruth Wilson
This book has to be one of the best I have had the pleasure of reading and reviewing. Perhaps it is because it speaks so tenderly and compassionately to the weary, fragile soul. Maybe it is because it’s beautifully written and is accompanied with sketched illustrations by Rebekah Lesan that…

Is there hope in suffering?
I saw an Instagram post from a Christian I follow who has entered remission from a cancer that she had. Like me, she has a young child and has not had an easy time. However, she recently returned to work as a nurse and was very understandably happy to be…

The Mustard Seed Mum: Leading By Example
Do you have someone that you look up to? Someone that you want to emulate in some way? For me, it’s my Mum. She has modelled for me what following Jesus looks like as a wife and mother, even in the hardest and most hopeless of circumstances. She was the…
