    Oh my goodness.

    Those will be the most popular baby names of 2009 now.

    I heard someone on tv say yesterday that the R’s will be too confusing, and that they will end up being call Renegasainoseciance.

    I can totally see how that would happen.

    What is the point of code names when it is made public. If it is the secret service, shouldn’t it be to protect them?

    I wonder what mine would be if I became president one day?

    “We got ‘chubs’ coming through…clear the way”….hahaha

    I can understand using code names for security reasons, but I don’t think they will do much good if they are on the internet for the entire world to see.

    How stupid.

    I guess I was hip to the code name usage after a long addiction to the “West Wing” – what with the president’s daughter being referred to as “Book Bag” and all.

    But Renegade? Renaissance?

    Those two just seem ‘Rong to me.

    I’m hoping those are the bogus, ultra cool movie versions, you know?? Because if those are the real names…

    Secret Service = FAIL.

    Perhaps they should keep some things a SECRET!

    I remember reading about the code names they gave the Bushes when he was elected.

    But yeah, I don’t see the point in publicizing it.

    I’m with you! What is the point of code names if you are going to plaster it all over the internet. More sophisticated ways to track a threat…hummmmm?

    I don’t understand why the code names are made public either. Makes no sense to me.

    I’ve already heard of a baby named after him..Lord help us!!

    I wanted to let you know that I’m currently reading your “I Am” bible study and I have been so blessed and uplifted by it. I know it’s something I need so badly b/c Satan has been doing all he can to interfere with my devotions. But I’m gonna keep on pluggin’!

    What I don’t get is why they are telling us these names? Aren’t they supposed to be secret??

    I’m with others here… what’s the point of a CODE name if they’re going to release them to the WORLD?!?!?!

    I’m hosting a little giveaway at http://www.makerminute.blogspot.com

    I hope all my preacher’s wives buddies will drop by!

Welcome!

Hi... I'm Lisa and as the tagline says, also a preacher's wife.  I began this website in 2007 just prior to the Facebook revolution when mom blogs were a relatively conflict-free zone for sharing recipes and stories about our latest parenting fails.  

Fast-forward a few years...

Luke and I continue to serve the same family of believers in North Alabama where we've called home for over 16 years. 

The boys are grown and gone, we have an incredible daughter-in-law and the baby McKay is living her best life as an only child while working and going to college. 

I am a full-time corporate employee and still love to write and teach Scripture.  The last two years haven't been kind to public events but it's been during these trying times that the Lord has revealed the importance of the local church reclaiming discipleship using the gifts of those within the body. The time feels right to refresh the blog as a platform for sharing how God has worked through this process and perhaps encourage other churches to follow. And who knows, there may even be a recipe or more parenting fails.  Those don't stop when your kids become adults. 

Thank you for visiting.. I look forward to connecting!

My Book

Are you a ministry wife who could use words of encouragement for navigating the ins and outs of serving the church? I wrote a book for that very purpose. Check it out here!
