    Let’s Get Insulated

    Before we worked on our insulation, we wanted to complete boxes for our wheel-wells. These will be under our bed eventually, but for our big trip coming up at the end of July, we will need to utilize them as seats and storage. We decided to use 3M Thinsulate for the insulation in our home-on-wheels.…

    True Hope

    Romans 8:22-25 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now.

  • Maiden Voyage of Eremos

    Maiden Voyage of Eremos

    It has been a while since I gave an update on Eremos’s progress. We got our second fan installed! This second install went splendidly, much like I expected the first install to go (even though we had zero experience then). We were done in just under two hours. It was a hotter day than when…

    Creation Longs for God

    Romans 8:18-21 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19 For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope 21 that the creation itself…

    Heirs of God

    Romans 8:15-17 For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba!

    A Reflection of Motherhood

    I am going to pause the Bible studies this week in reflection of Mother’s Day. The next couple of passages in the Bible study, Paul will be talk about being adopted by Christ and heirs along with Christ for those in the Spirit. In light of this I think it is important to reflect on…

    Sons and Daughters of God

    Romans 8:12-14 12 So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.             In the…

  • Subfloor Mania

    For our subfloor we decided to use 1/2″ foam board glued directly to the bottom of the van with 15/32″ plywood glued on top. We sealed the wood with a deck primer just to give it some added protection against moisture. I made up some templates with cardboard to trace onto the foam and wood…

    The Hope of The Spirit

    Romans 8:9-11 9 You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. 10 But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit…
