ORDER TODAY! + New Video TODAY! + Choral Collection #6!
Published September 6th, 2026
With the sobering anniversary of Charlie Kirk’s assassination on September 10th, we thought it was fitting to release this New Video and our New Album in early September. We need reminders from Scripture — anchors, really — to steady our minds when the brokenness of our world stares us in the face, again. We pray this song will do just that. May it give you words & worship to sing when the mountains crumble, and the wars rage on. HE IS EXALTED STILL!…
And That’s a Wrap, Folks! + Sneak Peek!
Published August 20th, 2026
You’d think that after 14 albums, I’d remember. But nope. (I’m still that flighty mom who forgot to pack an extra onesie for her 3-month-old. The wiring in my brain is still as it was 21 years ago… possibly worse.🤦♀️) The weeks leading up to album completion are just “extra”, and I keep forgetting, lol. For reasons beyond FBS, this week has been stressful. Headaches, tears, the whole bit. And I’m JUST NOW remembering to give myself a bit of extra space and grace during these weeks of album completion. Welp… maybe I’ll remember next year…
The Home Stretch!… New Album Nearing Completion!
Published August 14th, 2026
So, Heather, how are you doing??… Friends, this is what it looks like in the home stretch, finalizing an album. I can’t tell which way is up or down, and I’ve listened to these songs so many times that… well, that I just wouldn’t mind not listening to them for a good bit. BUT I PROMISE 🫵 YOU 🫵 WILL LOVE THEM, LOL! I could probably tell you where the weird breaths, digital snaps, unique pronunciations, and odd cricket-like sounds are. I could also tell you where my fave parts are that make my hands involuntarily rise in worship! 🖐️ (… And one super-fun song makes me smile and tap my toes nearly the whole way through!)
Some Fun Tour Firsts! + Tour Fillings & Openings!
Published July 30th, 2026
Even though summer is passing fast 🫣, it is finally August, which means a big break in my calendar! Yay! I love having things and trips to plan toward and look forward to… and I love how life is also punctuated with some healthy downtime. I’m certainly needing it! Just yesterday I was able to sneak in another hour basking in the hot sun ☀️ – I just love this! I’m so grateful for the safety, strength, and lots of sweet fellowship enjoyed on our recent tour. Each concert began with the song “I Will Sing”, which includes a line I sing with great sincerity, “He is my strength and my song!” Touring doesn’t typically wear me out physically (thankfully, we usually get plenty of sleep 😴). However, my introvert-ish “people-meter” can often fill to the brim, and I find myself depending on the Lord to be my strength even while I’m enjoying all the beautiful people on these trips…
On My Knees… A Lesson in Prayerful Dependence
Published July 8th, 2026
I know it’s the middle of summer, but God brought to mind this “winter” song, “Driven to Our Knees”, the other day when my husband and I were quite literally there — on our knees — bringing to the Lord some heavy burdens we were simply unable to carry. Since then, we’ve found ourselves back in the habit of making this a nightly ritual. Oh, how we need Him… Why does it always “surprise” me how lax I’ve become in depending on Him so fully? I mean, I “pray” all throughout the day, and I “pray” during my time with the Lord each morning, and I “pray” at church with my church family. But I wonder if there is a deeper something that is still missing. Prayer has become a habit, but not really a heart-posture of true and total dependence. Until it does…
My Beautiful Porches! + The Recording / Filming Process ~ Vlog #14
Published June 26th, 2026
I’d love to think I could engage on social media more than I do, but alas, I am only one person. All 4 of my kids are in-and-out this summer (so fun to have them together!). There are new, exciting songs waiting to be written, and house projects waiting to be completed. And overnight guests… and dinner guests… and our PORCH!…Did I tell you what a LOVELY porch & backyard we now have that we need to take FULL advantage of this summer?!…
NEW VIDEO TODAY! “The Light of the World is Jesus”
Published June 18th, 2026
I’m typing this while on our recording/filming trip in Indiana because currently the power is out at the studio! Please pray! But while we wait for the green light… We’re excited to release our newest video, “The Light of the World is Jesus“! The storm may have (temporarily) turned out the lights here in this section of Indiana, but nothing can cut the power or “turn off” the world’s True Light, Jesus Christ!…
S&S Tour ReCap! + Video Sneak Peek! + Florida Tour 2027!
Published June 11th, 2026
Heart = Full 💕 We are all back home from a wonderful “First-Ever Sisters & Sons Tour”! God was so good in so many ways. Here’s our list of highlighted blessings…
~ Health! Even though one of us started the tour with a bit of a sick bug, it didn’t pass on to anyone else, and the recovery was quick.
~ Safety & Alertness! I was the lone driver on this trip and was a bit nervous about staying awake on our many long drives, including a handful of late-night ones. (I have a history of droopy eyelids while driving. 😴) With the help of a great conversationalist (my sis!), a great DJ (my son!), and certainly because of the prayers of many, we arrived safely at each location. So very thankful!…
Next Recording Around the Corner! + Tour Next Week!
Published May 22nd, 2026
I blinked, and it’s time to record our next album! 🤯 Well, I did more than “blink” when you throw a mid-life move into the mix, but boy, does a year pass quickly!! I’ve been hard at work putting together all the details of our next project, and there’s still more to do, but we’ll get there with God’s help! Our recording and filming project is scheduled for June 17-20. It’s always such a joy to reach the finish line with my new batch of songs. I can’t wait for you to listen to the many ways in which God has been working in my life, as you’ll hear in these 8 songs below…
My Extended Interview by GraceWayRadio!
Published May 14th, 2026
Maybe I’m just not very self-aware (always a possibility!), but I don’t view myself as “a talker”. Until you get me going on music. Then, go ahead and brew a cuppa coffee and get comfortable… I’m pretty self-conscious about my tendency to ramble, but when handed this opportunity on a golden platter, I’m glad to oblige! I think this is why I’ve taken such delight in now 2 opportunities to freely share about all things music and how the Forever Be Sure music ministry has indelibly shaped me (and my family!). I particularly enjoyed my recent interview with Jacquelyn at GraceWay Radio. Their ministry reached out to me for this interview and aired it over the weekend of my birthday!…
“Middle of the Story” VIDEO RELEASE TODAY! + A Prayer Request
Published May 1st, 2026
Is it just me, or does this sound like your story, too?… Some days, I feel on top of the world. Personal morning devotions were deep, and the sweet breeze of family harmony wafts gently through the home. All is well at church. All is well with my kids, both near and far. The sun is shining, and I’m basking in my day’s accomplishments. All is at peace in my heart, and I even have regular reminders of recent answers to prayer… oh, how good God is! And then the wind blows… Everything irritates me (perhaps not all visible reactions, but undoubtedly some are!). I can hardly concentrate on reading through one chapter of the Bible, and even that feels bland…
Great Concert! + Book Recommend (Ben Everson) + Sneak Peek
Published April 15th, 2026
One of the sweet privileges I have now that we’ve turned a corner, largely funding our ministry through the giving of God’s people, is to visit our team of supporters! I had a lovely weekend mini-trip with my hubby as we had the JOY of connecting with those who financially support Forever Be Sure. We thoroughly enjoyed a 3-hour dinner date on Thursday night with a sweet couple, getting to know them and thanking them for their significant part in our ministry. Then, we had the unique JOY of joining in worship at a Collingsworth Family concert (my 2nd!)…
The Big 4-4! + Resurrection Song! + Address Reminder
Published April 1st, 2026
I’m not that person who celebrates the entirety of my birthday month. Partying is a lot of work … and I’ve got too much to do, LOL. BUT, we’re making an exception this year. For the month of April, ALL PHYSICAL CD ALBUMS* in our collection are dropping down to bottom-basement prices on our website!! (Yes, I’m getting real serious about purging my closet, hee-hee!)… So, help me celebrate! 😃 (And if you’re a die-hard gift-giver, I will accept donuts, or donations to Forever Be Sure… two things very dear to my 44-year-old heart! ❤️)
NEW Lyric Video Released TODAY! + Special Tour Announcement!
Published March 19th, 2026
It’s been a unique season for our family and me as we adjust to a new life in a new place, causing much reflection on the deeper things of life… such as God’s all-encompassing sovereignty. Of course, my ears perked up during my Bible reading one day recently when, clear on the page, God tells me that, “he has determined [everyone’s] preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings” (Acts 17:26). This means that God determined well in advance that Heather Schopf (and fam) would be living in Alto, Michigan, in the church parsonage, beginning in the year 2026, for as long as He has predetermined our season of ministry here to be. Mind blown…
Take a PEEK in our Pretty & Petite Parsonage! (VLOG #13)
Published March 5th, 2026
It’s been non-stop since we hit the ground here in Alto, Michigan, on December 31st! And the tasks come pressing in from all angles when you move. Such as…
– unpacking, organizing, and decorating… which necessitates a LOT of…
– shopping (in-person & online)… then the subsequent…

My New Home Office!… Now Help Me Purge My Closet!
Published February 20th, 2026
I suppose I *did* own a desk eons ago… But wow. I guess you don’t know what you don’t know… until you know. Boy, an office sure is a helpful tool. After arriving at our new-to-us Michigan home, I was able to nab one of the four bedrooms and call it my own “home office.” I am thoroughly enjoying finally having this “official” space to do all things Forever Be Sure! And wouldn’t you know, it’s decked out with all five of our brand colors… can you spot them?? Ack!… they’re so ME! (I’m such a color nerd.) So, come on in!…
“More Than a Man” NEW VIDEO! + Bahamas Pics!
Published February 10th, 2026
After just arriving back home from the Bahamas last Tuesday, we’re going all in with the “water theme” today! We, mostly Midwesterners, were grateful for the opportunity to “ride the waves” one afternoon at the beach, and I now have a renewed appreciation for just how powerful the sea can be. What a scene it must have been to see Jesus calm the waves with just a few words! In my reading & meditating on this iconic, sea-calming story, I was struck by the questions that were asked – first by the disciples, then by Jesus. These experienced fishermen weren’t exaggerating when they thought that their death was a real possibility amid such a storm…
Bahamas, Here We Come!! + New Video Coming Soon!
Published January 23rd, 2026
Well, now that we’ve nearly settled into our Michigan home (hoping to post some pics soon!), it’s time to pack it up for a week… for a trip to the Bahamas!! This trip kinda went down in similar fashion as our 2019 Hawaii trip: 1) Receive invite to island paradise. 2) Invitation accepted :). We are so excited for this opportunity, this time including my husband’s unique privilege to use his gift of teaching at a local church’s seminar. I’m pretty pumped to not only be traveling with my sweet friends below, but also with my better half!...
FINAL TALLY for Sprinkle Campaign!! (think LOTS of sprinkles!)
Published January 13th, 2026
I was truly hoping to make this announcement much closer to the beginning of the year… but, alas, moving is a bit of an interruption to “normal”. We’ve been a tad busy. Our family moved to Michigan on December 31, after nearly 18 years in Wisconsin, and I’m happy to report only one semi-disappointing mishap: my large bedroom mirror bit the dust… by my husband’s bike collection, nonetheless. (Thankfully, he and I are still best of friends, lol.)...
One Last **Literal** Walk Down Memory Lane + Campaign Report!
Published December 26th, 2025
It’s a matter of days now before we load up the truck and head to Michigan, and I’m trying to soak in all those last trips down memory lane. Listen in as I recall a few memories of how the Forever Be Sure has intersected with the sweet city of Eau Claire, Wisconsin – the place where our ministry blossomed and grew!...
Memory Lane #5 ~ Time Zones, Flat Tires, & Lessons Learned!
Published December 16th, 2025
Live and learn, they say… After our flat tire episode, we’ve changed our tour strategy a bit (minimizing the distance between concerts the night before!), but all in all this is a testimony of God’s provision… even when you have less than half an hour to get ready to step on stage for a concert! Listen in as I give a Sprinkle Campaign update, share a few other details & thoughts regarding our upcoming move to Michigan, and of course, show off my new shades...
BIG CHANGES for the Schopf Family!
Published December 9th, 2025
I’m beginning to understand this phenomenon of “becoming set in your ways”. Case in point: my Monday donut habit. Some things just need to happen. Weekly. I guess the thought of some changes can be exhilarating, but more often, the reality of change (much less upturning your whole world as you know it) can carry with it many forceful gusts of terror. But thankfully, those “gusts” can be temporary and held in check because we have a Constant God Who never changes, never sleeps or slumbers, is the ultimate, utterly-purposeful Planner, and is faithful to the bitter end...
Campaign Progress Report! + Memory Lane #4 (Winter Storms, Oh My!)
Published December 2nd, 2025
Where there’s a will, there’s a way! (…except when you run out of gas on the freeway, lol) Listen in to my exciting snowstorm memory from our March 2013 tour! Life has a way of teaching you things like double-checking your rental car’s gas gauge before driving it off the lot (…especially when you’re about to drive through the worst snowstorm of the season!) I’m very thankful I can look back at all these memories and recount all the ways God has taken care of us!...
“Crash and Burn” Memories! + Holiday CD Bundle Steal-Deal!
Published November 21st, 2025
In today’s episode of “Sprinkle Campaign Memory Lane”, I divulge a few memories of what I’m calling my ‘crash and burn’ concerts, LOL. (I wasn’t laughing at the time. 😥) I’m sure we can all recall times when we would have liked to crawl in a hole, but alas, we were “on stage” or “performing”… and, well, the show must go on. Listen in as I share my top two performance memories that still make my stomach a bit unsettled. 🥴 Oh well. God even uses these times to teach us something about Himself. And, in all likelihood, we are our own worst critics. Perhaps there was still a teensy little blessing to be had from those less-than-stellar performances....
Memory Lane #2: “Midnight Musing & A Morning Miracle!” + 2 Openings Left!
Published November 14th, 2025
In today’s “walk down memory lane”, I’ll share with you one of the many ways God came so close and personal to me in this Forever Be Sure journey. So close, you can almost hear His audible voice at midnight! (Well, not “audibly”, but clearly in my mind and heart!) I love it when He whispers TRUTH at just the time we need it! He’s still doing this today! Are you listening?...
A Walk Down Memory Lane… “What in the world are we doing?!?!”
Published November 7th, 2025
Join my journey down memory lane! My plan during this campaign season is to share a memory each week from our nearly 18 years of ministry at Forever Be Sure! We’ll keep it short and sweet (🤞), and I’m pretty sure there’s bound to be a good bit of humor sprinkled in!...

It’s nearly November (!!), and we’ve got a DOUBLE WHAMMY for you today: A New Music Video & The Launch of our End-of-Year Sprinkle Campaign! In a perfect world, I’d send you a celebratory donut 🍩! For the past 3 years, I have prayerfully entered our ambitious campaign season with anticipation and a pinch of anxiety (ok, sometimes more than a pinch 🙄). Each year, however, the Lord has grown my faith and confidence in how HE is working in and through Forever Be Sure...
Sneak Peek at Upcoming Video + New CD Bundle! + Christmas Cantata!
Published October 23rd, 2025
I’ve noticed something in this nearly 18-year songwriting journey. Sometimes when I sing the prayers in my prayer songs, God answers! Imagine that! I recall singing “Shine Your Light” on a string of tours many years ago —a song that asks the Lord to reveal to us the sin that may be hidden in our hearts. I don’t think I was quite prepared for God’s answer, but nonetheless, God graciously did just that (and continues His “sin-revealing” work!). I view this upcoming song/video in a similar light...
IT’S HERE!! … and IT’S “LIVE” on Streaming Platforms!
Published October 16th, 2025
Weeeeeee!!! I saw that our brand new CD album was “out for delivery” today, so I was eagerly waiting for the rumble of the UPS truck engine pumping up the hill to my house… and sure enough, as I was working on this email, I heard the rumble!! Our new CD album has finally arrived and I just recorded a “box opening” ceremony here at home! Some of you have already pre-ordered “The Light of the World is Jesus” physical album (thank you!), so hopefully by tomorrow, we’ll have those mailed out to you!...
LISTEN TODAY to Our New Album + Pre-Order Physical CD!
Published October 1st, 2025
It’s CHRISTMAS!!! Well, OK, not yet “officially”, but…
The day Forever Be Sure can release our new set of songs sure does feel like “Christmas” in a sense. These “gifts” we’ve been creating and packaging all throughout the year finally get to be OPENED, and used, and put out there for, yes, enjoyment — but even more, for ministry. God has already stirred in my heart through the process of writing, performing, and producing these songs, and I’m eager to see how God will now work in YOU as you listen, learn, and worship Him through them...
Brand New Song (Video!) Released TODAY! + Piano Books In-Stock (SALE!)
Published September 23rd, 2025
This is a special song release before the official release of our Brand New Album on October 15th! We hope you are uplifted by this BRAND NEW SONG, “You Who Made Heaven and Earth”! Filled with phrases from Psalm 121, this song highlights the many ways God is our very capable Helper. Just look around… At the stunning sunsets, at the grandeur of steep mountain ranges, at the silent, but bright, winter moon, at the million blades of green grass holding that magical morning dew… So many wonders to witness, all of which I’ve seen over the course of just one calendar year. God’s capable power is displayed all over His creation, yet beyond His “ability” is His deep commitment to care for His own...
Lyric Video Coming Soon!… Brand New FBS Song! + Filming This Week
Published September 10th, 2025
We are about to release a brand new song, scheduled to be on our 2025 album! We have recorded all the tracks for the album, and they are now being finalized. But we have one ready for you very soon… and we can’t wait to share it! Psalm 121 became very precious to me a little over a year ago. In an email, I reached out to a recommended lady for some Biblical counseling my soul needed. Her response was gracious and kind, and, though I didn’t save that email, I remembered her inserting a quick phrase from Psalm 121 that stuck...
Encouragement from a Prison! + Nashville ReCap!
Published September 3rd, 2025
God is working all over! I have a particular interest in those serving in prison ministries. Our God is “gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and great in mercy”. He is “good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works.” (Psalm 145:8-9) I’m certainly thankful for the tender mercies He shows to me! What a blessing to hear how our music is reaching inside prison doors and into the hearts of the people our God is pursuing!…
Nashville, Here We Come! + VLOG #10
Published August 14th, 2025
Will you pray for God’s blessing on our upcoming trip to Nashville? For a while now, I’ve asked the Lord to “connect me with those who could challenge me to the next level”. We shouldn’t want to get stagnant in any area of our lives, and I feel this need particularly in my music writing and production. I see this upcoming trip to Nashville as an answer to this prayer, as I’ll be surrounded by instrumentalists & musicians I can safely assume “know their stuff” (I’ve been told they’re Nashville’s best!)…
A Big Shift for Us! + Tour Openings for June AND July 2026!
Published August 7th, 2025
At the end of each concert, before we sing our last song, I take a moment to invite people to our “product table”. After our June tour, I got kinda self-conscious. 🙄 Probably 90% of the people in the audience don’t even use or have a CD player anymore. And if they do have a CD player in their car or home (like me), they still likely listen to streaming music nearly exclusively (also like me). I knew this day was coming… and it’s here, Folks. 👇 So, we’ve decided it’s time for the BIG SHIFT. Now, on our tours (including the one we just concluded), we are offering our physical CDs purely on a donation basis...
NEW VIDEO! “Psalm 13” ~ A Song of Hope for the Heavy-Hearted
Published July 21st, 2025
Oh, how the Psalms have been stabilizing and comforting in my life! It has been doubly instructive to me as a songwriter to see the Psalmists craft lyrics with such a healthy mix of truth and real emotion, a tough balance to find. How easy it is to fall into either side of the ditch – an emotive song with paltry “real help”, or a song so thick with truth statements that we wonder if a robot wrote it, lol. David’s weaving of honest, soul-wrenching questions with clear, faith-filled statements about the goodness of God is on full display in Psalm 13, and how very helpful it was for me to meditate on it deeply as I composed this new song...
Five-Dollar Summer CD Sale! + Sneak Peek at New Video!
Published July 15th, 2025
Has it been a year already?? Last spring/summer, God tenderly connected me with a godly, compassionate counselor. My mind and soul needed it. Nearly weekly, we would meet via Zoom, talk about my struggles, and slowly study through Scripture – some familiar passages, and some not as much. It was a healing time and a revealing time. And, no surprise, at least 3 songs emerged from these deep dives. The song in our upcoming video, “Psalm 13”, was released on last year’s album, “Grace To You”…
The Importance of Family
Published July 3rd, 2025
There’s nothing quite like being at “Family Bible Camp” (this week) and simultaneously diving into a book entitled “Raised by a Serial Killer”. Yipes. The timing is not lost on me today as I sit in a coffee shop (yes, taking a break from “family”, lol) typing this email. It’s fascinating, frightening, and heartbreaking all in one audiobook. I’m probably 60% through the long read, but it’s keeping my rapt attention as I lie in my safe, sweet little cabin for the night, together with my family…
Big Hail, Big Blessing + Tour ReCap!
Published June 13th, 2025
Sometimes God just drops His blessings from the sky. Literally.
May 15th was a normal day that turned out to be a very unusual day with unexpected gifts falling from the sky. While my son and I were at an eye appointment, the storm moved in. Soon, the two of us and about 5 other people were inside an eye exam room waiting for the surge to pass. And we listened as the hail pounded the metal roof. It was quite the alarming cacophony! Soon enough we were released to see what had just transpired. You wouldn’t believe how fast a very destructive storm will pass through!…
“Trust and Obey” FBS Style! … Watch our NEW VIDEO Released TODAY!
Published May 29th, 2025
“Just Trust and Obey” is quickly becoming a tour favorite! It has been included in the last few tours and is on the concert list for our upcoming tour next week. I hope this fun tune will get stuck in your head so that you find yourself humming this needed reminder…
When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will, He abides with us still
And with all who will trust and obey...

My Trip to GREECE! + 2025 Album Reveal + Next Tour!
Published May 7th, 2025
Late last Wednesday night, we flew back into Eau Claire from our trip around the world (kinda). It’s both a gift to be able to explore such unique and historically significant places… and to be safely back on American soil, tucked into my own bed! God was so kind to us on our trip to Greece as we walked in the footsteps of the Apostle Paul. I’ve never looked so long and intently at ancient rocks, ha! To be honest, I’ve had my fill of ancient ruins for the next long while, but!… I don’t think I’ll ever read the Bible quite the same again. Because in so many verses, I can now say, “I’ve been there!”...
Love Hymns? Here’s Our Full “Refreshed Hymns” Collection!
Published April 18th, 2025
For someone who very much enjoys creating something “original”, I have found great joy in giving a “new shine” to many of the treasured classic hymns. I usually DO give them a new tune, so my creative itch still gets scratched! Often, listening to familiar lyrics in a different musical setting brings the message back to life. (And I’ve found that many of those lyrics are so rich to begin with… they’ve just faded in impact due to familiarity.) In just these past few weeks, I’ve been working on another hymn-refresh of Fanny Crosby’s, “Take the World, But Give Me Jesus”.…
“The Solid Rock” ~ NEW VIDEO Released Today!!
Published April 10th, 2025
The older I get and the more I discover the “real me” inside, the greater my heart swells in gratitude when I think of the day I’ll stand before my Father in heaven “dressed in His righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne!” Me? Faultless??? It’s all Jesus. All of it. The only reason my Father will accept me is because He accepts His Son, Jesus, and I’ll be wearing the pure garb of Jesus’ righteousness, not my own. It must be this way “lest anyone should boast” (Ephesians 2:9)…
Sneak Peek at New Video! + Vlog 8!
Published March 28th, 2025
Over the years, I have just really enjoyed putting a “new shine” to some old, familiar hymns of the past. A good handful of them have ended up being some of our tour favorites. We have a brand new one we plan to record on our 2025 album, and I’m currently beginning to work on another one of Fanny Crosby’s hymns — one that is perhaps not as widely used, but is worthy of being highlighted again. Among these refreshed hymns in our collection is our new rendition of The Solid Rock, included in our newest album, “Grace To You”.…
We Need Your Feedback! + Spring Bundle Sale!
Published March 13th, 2025
A sweet lady dropped a little suggestion in my ear at the ladies’ conference I attended this past weekend. It’s been something I’ve considered through the years but now, as we musicians need to get a tish more creative when it comes to product production and diversifying, I’m giving a little more thought to this idea. Since many people comment how blessed they are with the message found in our song lyrics (yay!… highest compliment!… we want to convey God’s precious truth through song!), I’m wondering how much interest there may be in a printed compilation of our song lyrics…
The Heart of FBS: “Finding My Calling”
Published March 5th, 2025
I’ll admit it. The term “calling” had me stumped for a while. Is a calling only for those in the ministry? Do women have callings too? Should we even bother trying to figure out our “life calling”? Isn’t a strong sense of calling the anchor that keeps you grounded when the going gets tough? These questions had been on and off my front-burner for a long season, especially as it concerns my relationship with the Forever Be Sure ministry. Truthfully, I probably spent way too much time in my “mind castle” (as my husband calls it) hunting for an answer to what I now can more-trustingly call “the mystery of God’s will”…
NEW VIDEO Released Today: “Keep Ploddin’ Along”!
Published February 25th, 2025
Well, I finally wrote a song with the word “turtle” in it! And if you’ve been following my Songwriting Chats, you’d know I wouldn’t typically consider that a very “poetic” word, LOL! Nonetheless, it fit, so I kept it! In the past decade, I’ve learned just a bit more about the word “endurance”. My husband/pastor put it so well one day in his Sunday sermon. He challenged us (in far more eloquent words) to open our eyes to the work God is doing in our church. He encouraged us to not just think of the “big” or “grand” ways God makes His work obvious, but rather consider also the “smaller”, more “mundane” ways His exceedingly abundant power is displayed…
Sneak Peek at Upcoming Video! + Songwriting Chat #8!
Published February 11th, 2025
It’s been a while since we’ve released a “fun” video… And fun was had (accompanied by LOADS of sweat) as we filmed this new video last August! Kudos to you ladies who have long locks of beautiful hair. As fun as it is to wear a wig, we learned that beauty has its price tag in the summer heat, ha! But we survived and lived to tell about it! And, thankfully, our uber-talented videographer knows how to make our work look effortless…
Back to Songwriting Chats! (#7)… Now at the Piano!
Published January 23rd, 2025
As busy as the Holiday Season can be, there seems to be moments in those early weeks of January when the “winter slump” hits.
