March 24, 2018March 26, 2020 ~ Barbaranne Kelly ~ Leave a comment

Originally posted November 10, 2017, at Women of Purpose. In our lesson this week we continued to dig into Peter’s admonition to us as beloved sojourners who are to do good and bring glory to God, this time in the context of our relationships in the workplace. Well, I say, “in the workplace,” but Peter … Continue reading Standing in the True Grace of God, Lesson 9

Just Who Do I Think I Am?!

March 27, 2017March 30, 2017 ~ Barbaranne Kelly ~ Leave a comment

(Originally posted July 14, 2011) This thought has returned to me recently concerning my writing. I'm also struggling to re-establish a running routine, so I'm engaged with that mental battle as well. I am now 51years old, a mother-in-law, and a grandmother. I am also a writer. My primary identity, however, is Child of God. This is … Continue reading Just Who Do I Think I Am?!
