No one leaves the porch unchanged. Tuesday, July 6, 2010. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes." Ephesians 6:11-17. Then He tells us that our feet should be fitted in Christian cleats so we can hold our ground, despite the elements that seek to make us lose our footing. And that shield of defense against the advances of others is surely made from the promises of God. July 6, 2010 at 12:52 PM. July 9, 2010 at 2:45 AM. God bless and keep u.

No one leaves the porch unchanged. Saturday, March 20, 2010. The Transparency of Single Moms. Being a mom is a powerful lens for viewing the amazing way that the Lord loves us.

No one leaves the porch unchanged. Friday, April 16, 2010. The Dichotomy of Dying to Live.

We have all had some experience with death; whether from the intimacy of its embrace of loved ones or the recognition that it waited patiently for us like an unwelcome visitor with no place to go. As I was dealing with my grandmother's death, my soul cried out from the uncertainty of how to live ...

No one leaves the porch unchanged. Friday, July 16, 2010. He Spared My Life. My mama told me to never believe that I was not meant to be here.

Jothany's Porch: A Spiritual Dialect
http://jothanysporch.blogspot.com/2010/03/spiritual-dialect.html
No one leaves the porch unchanged. Saturday, March 20, 2010. My grandmother had an expression that captured the myriad nuances of testimony and its power to transform. As we sat around her porch on humid, southern nights, she would open her stories of God’s goodness with “honey, it’s a story to tell! 8221; As though there are some stories only to be read, others folded like worn quilts in the secret places of our hearts, or still others that dance unrestrained like leaves upon a sudden breeze.
