The first in a new math series, this Math Moment looks at the incredible consistency math describes–and how that consistency of creation points to the biblical Creator.

Warning: Restoration in Process
No one could see what Tim saw in that old house. They saw brokenness; he saw potential. They saw chipped paint, falling gutters, and a leaky roof–not to mention dirt everywhere and enough cobwebs to catch an ant farm. He saw the builder’s original intent–and what that house could one day be. Others couldn’t understand…
Mom Moment: Default Responses
The blueberries we’d just bought had scattered all over the floor. So much for putting the groceries away. As I knelt to pick them up, I heard my child, in a perfect imitation of me, say, “You need to learn to be more careful.” Ouch. The last time I’d had an accident like this, my…
Math, Electricity, & the Creator
I’m excited to have just finished the draft of a full-color, 8.5 in by 14 in by 15 ft math timeline, on which students will be able to watch math in action throughout history—and see how math points us to the Creator in the process. Below is a sneak peek into just a few of…

Mom Moment: Standards
“Not that we dare to classify or compare ourselves with some of those who are commending themselves.

We tend to get…
Story: Comparing Gifts
Susie felt perfectly happy with the Christmas gift she’d been given…until she saw what her sister had received. Mary had gotten a brand new wagon! Suddenly, her gift–a glittery apron, rolling pin, cookie cutters, and oven mitts–looked unimpressive. All through Christmas dinner and afternoon play time, Susie pouted, missing out on enjoying the special food…
Math, Christmas Lights, & the Creator
Watching Christmas light shows has become a holiday tradition for many. But few stop to think of all the math that goes into these spectacular displays. Strands per Outlet or Lights per Circuit When hanging a lot of lights, you want to make sure you don’t blow a circuit! Bonfe offers this formula to help…
Mom Moment: Overcoming the Fears
Our minds as moms can easily fill with worry. We fear we’ve done or are doing something wrong, will forget to do something, have forgotten to do something—the list goes on. We tend to blame ourselves for everything bad that happens, thinking if we were just a better mom, it wouldn’t have. As I battled…
Story: Missed Flight
Jessie never thought he’d actually miss a flight. He’d cut some close—where they shut the door right behind him—but he’d been flying for decades and had never actually missed a flight. Then one day, it happened. He’d gotten to the airport in plenty of time. But then his ride got turned around in the wrong…
