Flippin' the Script and Holdin' It Down for The Holidays

Last updated on: March 19, 2013 at 7:36 pm By Osheta Moore

Today I read a hilarious post at Rage Against The Minivan on holidays. Kristen’s candid storytelling and super smart sarcasm left me breathless from belly laughs and nodding my head emphatically. Being a mom of school-aged kids in this hyper holiday atmosphere is cray-cray. This school year alone, I made two sets of 100 days projects. Which isn’t as simple as mod-podging 100 little items to a hat (oh I wish), but sitting with each child, coming up with an idea, and... Read more

Ten Loves for the Dove

Last updated on: March 16, 2013 at 5:42 am By Osheta Moore

Source As I lay hold of peace this Lent, I’m loving the passages I get to read on the peaceful, non-violent resistance of Jesus’ ministry and death on the cross. Eugene H. Peterson describes His ministry this way, “He just as clearly repudiated the accustomed means by which that rule was exercised: he rejected the devil’s offer of a position in government, rebuked the brothers Boanerges for wanting to call down fire from heaven to incinerate their enemies, ordered Peter to put...

FMF: Restless Until I Rest In You?

Last updated on: March 15, 2013 at 3:25 pm By Osheta Moore

Yay, it’s Friday, time for Five Minute Friday! As y’all know this week I’m writing on the lessons I’m learning about peace for my Lenten commitment of 40 Days of Peace. Today’s word prompt, “rest” was tough, but I remembered a Scripture I read last night about the dove here we GO: Source Restless Until I Rest In You? Saint Augustine of Hippo said, “Our hearts are unquiet until we rest in you”. Then Audrey Assad made it into a song,... Read more

Forgiving Kristen Stewart

Last updated on: March 13, 2013 at 9:41 pm By Osheta Moore

Source Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” 39 He also told them this parable: “Can the blind lead the blind? Will they not both fall into a pit?40 The student is not... Read more

My Awkward Tattoo Parlor Phone Conversation

Last updated on: March 13, 2013 at 3:06 am By Osheta Moore

Source I was writing today’s post on Kristen Stewart and Forgiveness and I couldn’t keep my eyes opened, so….I’m going to bed y’all. First thing tomorrow, I’m going to Starbucks and finishing up, “Forgiving Kristen Stewart For Ruining Twilight For Me”. But for now, I’ll tell y’all about my awkward phone call to the tattoo parlor for a consultation.So, this is my first tattoo, right? I’m all kinds of nervous, not just about the pain, but being so out of my element... Read more

Peace, Doves, Twilight

Last updated on: March 11, 2013 at 8:42 pm By Osheta Moore

I’m excited about this week’s posts on 40 Days of Peace! So far, devoting Lent to exploring peace has been anything but peaceful. It’s been pride shredding and assumption challenging. This week I’ll be writing on forgiveness and putting my love to action by being “at peace with everyone as far as it depends on me” (Romans 12:18). The first post will be called, “Forgiving Kristen Stewart For Ruining Twilight For Me” will be about assumptions, expectations, and being judgmental.... Read more

FMF: Home for the Post-Katrina Evacuee

Last updated on: March 8, 2013 at 9:19 am By Osheta Moore

It’s Friday y’all, that means a: my husband comes home from his four day ordination class (yay), b: date night is a mere14 hours away (double yay!) and it’s time for another Five Minute Friday (super yay).Today’s word prompt was: home. I chose to listen to Vanessa Carlton’s “home” for inspiration and then write for five minutes on what home means to me as an post-Katrina evacuee. So I hope y’all enjoy five minutes of my best interpretation of: Home... Read more

Third Way Womanhood Pt. 4

Last updated on: March 8, 2013 at 1:55 am By Osheta Moore

Here we go, Third Way Womanhood part four. This is the end of this series where I explore biblical womanhood as a woman who doesn’t fully identify with either of the two major positions of evangelical womanhood. Well…actually…there’s really no way to “end” this series. As I processed my choices and convictions on womanhood in preparation for parts one through three, I realized that I am truly and wholeheartedly a Third Way Woman. So Third Way Womanhood is...

Misanthrope with a Mocha

Last updated on: March 6, 2013 at 3:35 pm By Osheta Moore

Source I’m at Starbucks working on Third Way Womanhood part four and my feet are cold. They were cold when I left the house; they were cold on the drive here to caffeine heaven; and they’re cold as I sit here sipping my latte fifty feet from the constantly opened door of this busy coffee shop. I’m cold and irritated and close to miserable because dang it, this latte should be working it’s way down to my toes and warming... Read more

FMF: Ordinary Girl Loves an Ordinary Boy

Last updated on: March 1, 2013 at 11:05 pm By Osheta Moore

TGIF! Date night’s in a little less than an hour. My FMF is coming later than usual because spent the day writing Third Way Womanhood part 4—I’m thiiiiiiiiiiiis close to finishing, but I needed a break so I popped over to Lisa-Jo’s site and grabbed today’s prompt. Since y’all know Jesus works on me through media and music, it shouldn’t be a surprising that today’s prompt reminded me of John Legend’s ultra-cool, but gritty love song, “Ordinary People”.
