About
Sometimes you start something and then get clear affirmation that this is what I’m suppose to do…
A few weeks after beginning this blog, our church had White Bucket Sunday. The teaching that morning was about the early church and how the people shared everything in common. At the end of the teaching that morning, white buckets were placed around the stage. We were then asked to evaluate our lives right now. Did we have more money than we needed and could share with others? Or did we need money to help cover the bills that were piling up? Either way, we were instructed to come to the buckets; to put money in if we could or to take money out if that is what we needed. I have never experienced something quite like this before.
…this has become my white bucket project.
A little about me…
I’m a stay-at-home mom to two little boys and have been married to my best friend Matt for 8 years. We live on 6 acres in the house where my grandparents lived most of my childhood.
With the downturn of the economy, we’ve also had to reevaluate where our money is going. How do we make less money stretch further so we are able to pay our bills and continue to give to others?
This site stems out of that question.
“Give me neither poverty nor riches,
but give me only my daily bread.
Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, ‘Who is the LORD?’
Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God.”
Proverbs 30:7-8 (TNIV)
My desire is that my life be an outpouring of the love and generosity that Christ shows me. May it not be about me.

Hi! I just stumbled over from Macomb Money Savers because of your Family Fare post. I thought I’d read your About section to see if you were local (since you were writing about Family Fare, and their locations are pretty limited), but I had no idea your mission was inspired by the White Bucket Project. Ohmygosh! I was at Mars Hill that Sunday. It was AMAZING. What a great church, and what a great day to find another ‘like minded’ blogger in the area. Kudos!
