A friend gave me an amazing sheet of paper the other day. I tucked it away in my journal for a daily peek. It is titled “The Truth about my Identity in Christ,” and there are 100 verses. In a season of massive identity shift, I am excited to start internalizing these truths. Today, number 91…
Leviticus 6: Attention to Detail
Chapter 6 begins with the rest of the instructions for the restitution offering. It then launches into the beginning of a long list of details for sacrificial activity in general. I beg you to lower your expectations of me today regarding this chapter. With teething 6-month-olds, a few guests staying in our home, and some extra ministry…
Leviticus 5: Reality Check
Welcome to a very authentic and brutally honest study of the book of Leviticus. If you have been following this series very closely, you may have noticed I’ve skipped some days (gasp!).

Happy 6 Month Birthday to the Rosty Twins!
6 Months… We made it! The Rosty twins are 6 months and thriving. A year ago I didn’t think we would make it this far. In the back of my mind I figured we would be such a mess, that Jesus would take pity and come back before now. In his gracious providence, God has…
Epic Fail!? Don’t Worry, There’s Hope: Leviticus 4
Welcome to our study of the not-so-boring-and-irrelevant book of Leviticus. (Click here for the beginning of this study).

I repented and prayed for God’s help to focus on HIS truth. With…

Today we are studying Leviticus 3. Have you read it yet? As tempting as it is to keep reading my thoughts on the subject, please for the love of grumpy-cat memes, please go read Leviticus 3 for yourself first! God has amazing things to say in this book; I was skeptical at first, but it’s day…
Embracing the Unadventure of Motherhood
I have a deep affinity for hiking in the mountains. Something about the wildflower hills, spaced sporadically among thick walls of green trees, and a path with untidy growth happening all around my feet makes my heart sing. I’ve lived my life as an adventure seeker. International travel, camping, road trips, big projects, building our own…
How Leviticus 2 Will Change the World! (Revealing how work done for God has eternal value)
Day 2 of studying Leviticus. (To return to the start of the journey, click here.) “Give me a teachable spirit Lord.” I prayed as I began my study today. I jotted down my 3 categories, in short-hand this time. God is… I should… Q’s… Reading about the grain offering could have been boring, monotonous…….
Leviticus 1: Burnt Offering of Worship
A Study in Leviticus: Chapter 1 I woke up late today, but as I mentioned earlier, I am determined to study Leviticus. I am confident there is truth in this book that will lead me to a greater understanding of God and therefore, more abundant worship of him. So I sat my babies down with toys…
