No Higher Calling

The Lord has given me a passion for motherhood and homemaking. From that passion, a ministry has birthed- No Higher Calling. There is no higher calling on my life than to be wife to Simeon and Mama to my littles. I still have so much to learn, but as I continue to grow, it is my desire to share the truths God is teaching me.

    Come Thou Long Expected Jesus

    There is a scarlet cord woven throughout all Scripture. God had a plan for the redemption of mankind. His plan was Jesus Christ. For centuries, women wondered if they would be chosen to be the mother of the promised Redeemer. Out of the pages of history, God chose Mary to have that honored privilege.  Jesus Christ has come and paid the price for our sins. He fufilled all the longings of man's heart. That is why we celebrate Christmas! But He is coming again! Come thou long expected Jesus!   Scriptures Referenced: Deuteronomy 18:15 Isaiah 7:14 Malachi 3:1 Micah 5:2 John 1:41; 4:25-26; 14:6 Acts 2:38   Resources Referenced: NHC Podcast Series   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    NHC Family~ Helping Your Children Process Miscarriage

    Miscarriage is a devastaing loss to navigate. In 2021, Simeon and I lost a baby that we named Victory. That was a dark trial for us to walk through as a couple, but it was a loss that also affected our entire family. Though our children were young, we decided to tell them of their sibling that went to heaven.  I have been asked before for advice on helping your children process miscarriage. Every family grieves differently, and ultimately if you tell and how much you tell your child is up to the discretion of the parents. I will say from our experience, it has been good for our entire family to be able to speak of and remember our baby. In this episode, Simeon and I share advice on how you can navigate this heartbreaking topic with your children, giving space to grieve while claiming the hope that is found in Christ.    Scriptures Referenced: Psalm 30:5 Ecclesiastes 3:2, 4   Resources Referenced: NHC Family~ A Father's Heart on Miscarriage A Letter in Your Loss by Kristen Kelley   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    From the Manger to the Cross

    Come on a journey with me as we follow Mary and her ponderings as she considers God's plan for her Son. From the manger to the cross, we see God weaving His plan of redemption through the life of Jesus Christ. Years of expectation led to this moment in time. The Messiah had come!  What does this mean for us? How can we ponder on these things and keep them in our hearts?   Scriptures Referenced: Luke 2:1-19, 41-52; 23:33, 44-46 John 19:26-27   Resources Referenced: Great Hymns for Growing Hearts: Christ the Saviour is Born KJV Christmas Cards   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    Count Your Blessings

    Gratitude: An emotion of the heart, excited by a favor or benefit received; a sentiment of kindness or good will towards a benefactor; thankfulness.  We have so much to be thankful for. When we start counting our blessings, we realize that we are a very blessed people. Yet, we often forget to express our gratitude to the One who has given us these good and perfect gifts. God has challenged me in this area of my life. I know that I need to grow in gratitude. I share specific ways that I am working on this area, as well as the affect gratitude has in so many areas of life.   Scriptures Referenced: Psalm 22:3; 100:4-5 I Thessalonians 5:18   Resources Referenced: Research Study on Gratitude   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    NHC Family~ What To Do About Santa?

    Many parents struggle with the question, "What do we do about Santa?" As Christians, we desire to have a holiday that is centered on Christ, yet secularism entices our focus in another direction.  Simeon joins me to talk through this topic as we share what we've come to as a family. You'll also enjoy some fun rabbit trails as we share what it's like to celebrate Christmas in Australia!   Resources: NHC Podcast: A Christ-Centered Christmas Great Hymns for Growing Hearts: Christ the Savior Is Born Friendship Cards Christmas Cards   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.

    My Surrender to Missions

    God has given our family the unique privilege of serving Him as missionaries in Sydney, Australia for almost two years. Because I am a missionary wife, I have often been asked to share my "calling" to missions. My story is different from others. It's not the testimony of other missionary heroes you might read about. My heart was encumbered with fears and doubts. But God has given clarity and purpose as we've followed Him. I couldn't imagine doing anything else with our life. We are doing what we truly believe God created us for, and there is nothing like living in His way!   Resources: Subscribe to our ministry prayer letter- https://brazzellstoaustralia.com/  Brazzells Missionary Video 2024   Follow my  journey by subscribing to this podcast.
