The Strength of Faith: Classic Breakfast With A Twist

I am an ordained minister and a food blogger. The combination is pretty epic. Welcome to The Strength of Faith!

A little bit about me ...

I live in Southeast Massachusetts with my husband and our 4 year old gray tabby cat, Lilly. I am a 2007 graduate of Ursinus College and received a Master of Divinity from the Candler School of Theology at Emory University in 2010.

I recently started my ministry as the Senior Pastor of Rehoboth Congregational Church in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. They are a wonderful group of people who minister to me as much as I do to them. Every day I continue to be amazed at the unexpected grace I find in my life.

This blog documents my life as I try to figure out what it means to live faithfully and mindful of my health in a world full of distractions. I post my workouts and pictures of my daily eats in order to help me find balance in my life. I post recipes as I seek to develop creativity in the kitchen. I am on a lifelong quest to be happy and healthy.

Thank you for stopping by – I look forward to getting to know you!

Classic Breakfast With A Twist

Morning!

I fell back on an old classic this morning. Toasted whole wheat bagel with peanut butter and jam.

But I gave it a twist - I put some granola on top! It gave it a crunchy/cinnamon kick.

+ Coffee

I am so full right now!

I have a busy day. I am preaching for a pastor in my association this weekend and so far only have a title to my sermon.

Have a good one!

I have a rough outline for my sermon...but it's going to stay that way till tomorrow. I am so mentally and physically exhausted today...I need the Sabbath time. I think my sermon will thank me for it...not to mention the folks that will hear it. PLUS, if I write it tomorrow it will be like the good ole days in seminary where we started papers the night before...errrr...or 5 hours before...love you!
