Onto New (Previous) Online Ventures

Ever since my relationship with God, my Father, Yehovah, was restored 21 years ago, Matt and I, along with our children, have worked in our churches and communities, volunteering in and leading in ministries. We have worked in Youth, Children’s, Women’s, College, Missions, Mom’s, Worship, Administrative, Local Boards, Drama Teams and choreography, and the list goes on…. It is amazing that the Lord will use you as you are willing, in an organized church or not, to show Himself to the world. For the past three years, we have been blessed that he has given us many online opportunities to share Him and His Word with others.
For the past 16 months, ‘end of the month’ meant scrambling for the last 3 days to make sure articles, photos, links, etc. were right and in order for GGM. Most of those nights, the Dixons were up working on GGM from early evening, if not afternoon, to early the next morning. Those past months we managed and wrote for GGM were a good experience for our family, but it’s time to get back to publishing articles on the websites we had started before GGM.
Feelin’ Feminine
Jocelyn has never discontinued her Feelin’ Feminine website, but has continued to write and publish articles to spur women on in Biblical femininity. Here are some of her most recent Feelin’ Feminine articles:
Featured Femina: The Botkin Sisters
Training Children
The other websites and blogs that we are thankful to now have time to write on regularly again are our Training Children sites:
Training Daughters Teaching Wives
To Be Self-Controlled and Pure
Training Sons To Be Men
TDTW was originally created as a blogroll for moms and daughters to find like-minded bloggers training up their daughters in Titus 2. We decided to make it a blog in 2007, and we have now transferred it and the original posts to our own server. In the past year, we decided to set up TSTBM as our own boys matured, and have an accompanying blogroll for it also. Eric is very excited about being able to learn to manage and write on it.
Unfortunately, with all the time I spent managing GGM and its articles and authors, these sites were sorely neglected as my efforts and much time were put into that. I am thrilled that I now have time to work on our own girls’ and boys’ sites. If you have requested participation in the blogrolls, I will be getting you added and sending you the code soon!
Studying the Word
A new site we have set up is Studying the WORD. We set it up for our own personal use, for our family bloggers to study together on and write up what we are learning and studying in the Bible.
Gleaning the Harvest
Of course, we also have Gleaning the Harvest. We set GTH up to minister to home school moms who are widowed, divorced, or single. The site is set up with ChipIn widgets so that you can donate each week or month to the families, as you wish, and the monies you give go directly to the paypal accounts of the families you give to.
Please be in prayer for GTH as much as you remember us. There are many women who have contacted us who want to stay home with their children and not serve the world, giving their children up to it. Please keep us in prayer for wisdom to be able to help these moms out as we are commanded to in the Word.
States and Countries Exploration
I spent an evening this past week transferring previous articles to our History site, States and Countries Exploration. Jocelyn originally started the website a few years ago to give home school history assignments to her blog friends on their US States. We have transferred these assignments and also added the articles the girls have researched and written in the past few years. It should be a lot of fun! and great information too!
Our Personal Websites
As usual, you will find blog posts about our family, large families, and home schooling, as well as my faith here at Walking Therein.
Amanda blogs hers at The Daily Planet,
Jocelyn at A Pondering Heart,
Rachel at A City On A Hill,
Eric at On The Road To Manhood,
and Hannah at Resting in the Arms of Grace.
You will also find some beautiful blog design work from Jocelyn at A Pondering Heart Boutique and from Amanda at The Daily Planet Designs.
So, though our friends will no longer find us at Growing in Grace Magazine, you will certainly not miss our articles! We will continue to write and publish encouraging articles to girls and moms, and also include many others as well, but on our own weblogs!
Please visit these sites and share the links with your friends or readers you think might be interested or in need of information on the sites. Please also pray for us as we seek to and try to walk in the path that Adonai, our Father and our God, has set before us.
Blessings!

Because the direction of GGM is now taking another path in their beliefs, you will no longer see any updates or links to the magazine.
