Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • Make the List

    In the early years of our marriage, Cam and I were struggling. Struggling with sex, struggling about how much money we’d spend on, well, just about everything from basics to luxuries, struggling to figure out our roles, struggling over power, struggling with identity. You know, the usual marital stuff.  We finally went to a counselor.…

  • The LORD Will Provide

    “So Abraham called the place The LORD Will Provide. And to this day it is said, ‘On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided’” (Genesis 22:14). What provision do you need right now? Is it more money? A job? Some peace? Motivation? If so, read the ultra-amazing account of Abraham willingly offering his son,…

COVID-19, the silent killer.…

  • Those I Missed

    Lately, I’ve wanted to spend more time focusing on Mamas. I hope the focus helped you notice her. One of the things I love is when you give me ideas, or help me grow in my knowledge of the world and love of God.  I remember when I got my Master in Theology, I thought:…

  • Gather Your Group

    Why do we gather?  Gathering, whether it’s with family, friends, or community, is sacred. We’re maybe feeling the truth of that now more than ever. And gathering with other women is especially meaningful. I know, I know. It can be hard to have friendships with women. We can be difficult, petty. But when we ditch…
