Intro

We named our blog “Raising Mustard Seeds” after the famous parable in Matthew’s Gospel. We had some mustard seeds of our own laying dormant in our hearts, and finally, the year before our marriage, we began to let those seeds grow. Our journey with Christ hasn’t always been easy, but it has bore more fruit than we could possibly imagine. And through the mustard seeds He planted in our hearts, He opened them to receive little mustard seeds of our own…

While Jesus in this parable is talking about how faith and our relationship with God should grow from something very small to something mighty and powerful, it’s applicable to our children as well. It is our hope that through prayer and proper parenting, our children will grow from small and helpless (tiny mustard seeds) to being mighty in Christ, so that they will be shining lights in the world and people will come to “dwell in the branches” of their faith.

So, this is our little space in the big internet where we will share our most likely crazy experiences as we start our family and we hope those who are close to us will enjoy laughing at us and with us, and maybe even learn something new :)

Welcome to our blog!!!


Hello friends and family! We decided to start a blog so that family and friends can stay up to date with us as we venture into phase 2 of our marriage: PARENTHOOD. We couldn't be more excited for this new journey, so come along with us as we document the rest of our first pregnancy and our changing lives!

As of tomorrow, I am 19 weeks pregnant...almost halfway. We've got some pictures from the last few weeks that we'll be posting soon :)
