Everyone needs a little sparkle and a whole lot of Jesus in their life!

Welcome to In the Whisper. I am humbled that you would spend some of your valuable time on this page.

I am a self-professed joyologist. Jesus is the light of my world, and I strive to shine that light on the people around me. I love sharing the Bible as the #1 tool in our toolbox of life. Besides In the Whisper, I am a founder and board member of Gifts with Grace, a ministry for women facing trauma who feel they have no voice. I also offer devotions and walking to a group of women as a means of spiritual and physical wellness. I find so much joy in being loud and bold for Jesus.

When the world is too noisy, I want to offer you a place of quiet reflection, a place where you can hear God's whispers. I pray that here; you find a place that is peaceful and gives you rest. We are all about encouraging women. You are loved; you are beautiful and you are worthy!

Keeping our eyes on the ball.

We must keep our eyes on Jesus, who leads us and makes our faith complete. He endured the shame of being nailed to a cross because he knew that later on, he would be glad he did. Now he is seated at the right side of God's throne! So keep your mind on Jesus, who put up with many insults from sinners. Then you won't get discouraged and give up. Hebrew 12:2-3 Keep your eye on the ball, the prize, the sparrow, Jesus. There are so many ways to say it, but it always means the same

Lighting the world after Christmas

Christmas lights, I absolutely adore everything about them. The simplicity of the colors, the festive twinkling, the way they illuminate everything around them in a soft glow and the complete joy seen in the faces of children and adults alike when they gaze at them. It’s January 10th and we still have our Christmas lights up. In years past we unplugged them the day after New Year’s, but this year I told my husband we would keep them up through the epiphany. That was Sunday.

The perfect Christmas is not about making your own wrapping paper.

I went Christmas shopping today. Yes, I still like to go to the stores and shop during this busy season. I enjoy the music and decorations, even the hustle and bustle at this time of year. It was busy, but not terribly so. I love to people watch and it was fun to see the young Dads taking their children to get mommy’s gift. The kids were wide eyed and excited to pick out that perfect gift for their mommy. The scene was a little different at Hobby Lobby. Men were following the

Apples of gold, words of love

Many years ago, when my children were toddlers, I had taken them out to dinner at a local pizza place. They acted like normal toddlers; giggling, making weird noises and telling nonsensical stories. I had to remind them to eat occasionally, but we made it out with no spills or yelling. So a success in my book. I asked the server for the bill and she told me it had been taken care of and handed me a note. The note read: “You have a beautiful family and you are such a good Mom.

Holiness is what I long for . . .

It was late on a Friday night a few years ago. I had a long day at work, a 45 minute drive home, it was cold and raining and all I wanted was oreo cookies. I walked into Walmart with a plan to get the cookies and get home. As I was walking back to the cookies, I heard a voice yelling, “Courtney, Courtney get over here. Courtney, we are going, get over here.” And she kept yelling it over and over and over. The closer I got to the yelling, the more annoyed I got. As I reached
