What does a “mommy blog” have to do with local church ministry?

March 2, 2020 by Aprille Leave a Comment

Our local church is hosting a missions conference unlike any missions conferences I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot).

March 1, 2016 by Aprille 6 Comments

(I don’t normally write about blogging tips, so forgive me for venturing out of my niche for this post.) In my efforts towards blog monetization, my top priority (per my favorite coach’s advice) has been increasing my page views.

When GROWING means your blog {baby steps into blog monetization}

January 22, 2016 by Aprille 7 Comments

It was a few months ago when I was walking home from taking Ezra to school, listening to a Voxer message from my friend, Kathryn, and she mentioned, in passing, that she was close to making $30,000 with her blog in the past year.

Protecting my children online

April 22, 2015 by Aprille 9 Comments

I’ve been considering this for months, perhaps even longer by now. This question, “How do I go about protecting my children online?” What should be shared? How much is too much?

It’s that time of year again, when I give you a sampling of my best and most popular posts from the year. My 31 Days Series ended up being incredibly popular, so much so that most of the other posts I had written this year were knocked out of the top 14! I am so … [Read more…]

December 11, 2014 by Aprille 9 Comments

Christmastime last year was a very difficult one for me. My husband was working a low-end temporary job making $15 an hour – with no time off for the holidays (not even Thanksgiving or Christmas). We had no Veteran’s benefits coming in yet. Neither of us had healthcare. We were living in an 850 square … [Read more…]

November 7, 2014 by Aprille 6 Comments

And then I find myself saying, “At some point, it can’t be all about me anymore.” I think I feel this shift coming – this dichotomy between what my blog is and what it could be.
