FAITH • LIFE • SUFFERING • HOPE
Welcome!
My husband’s last name means brown bear. There are six of us Bruinius bears in this family—hence the name. This is a place to talk honestly about life, study the Word of God, walk through suffering, and keep our eyes on Jesus together.
What You’ll Find Here

Bible & Faith
Studying the Word of God and sharing what I’m learning along the way.
