Behind The Brand — triple faith

Isn't It Ironic?

Posted by Christy Steele on

 Here are some life truths I have been randomly pondering back and forth. 1. Some people say it's never too late to ___________. (fill in the blank with whatever you want.) But let's face it. Sometimes it is. So do the thing you have been putting off. Take one step toward it each day. As I type this I can honestly say I mostly have done that. Buuuutttttt.....there is something that is peeking out from behind a corner in my brain that I haven't taken steps toward in awhile. I need to get on that. 2. If you start a...

No Greater Love

Posted by Christy Steele on

This Memorial Day holiday has me thinking about the verse from the Bible that says, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." --John 15:13. (And what about laying down your life for people...and future generations of people you have never even met?) Oh my goodness...it gives me goose bumps thinking of the bravery and sacrifice. And because of my mind lingering on this verse...along with a conversation I had recently with a friend...I have been contemplating friendships.  Am I a good friend? I hope so. I truly do. But the...

Posted by Christy Steele on

When asked your favorite kind of flower, what is your answer? Roses? Gardenias? Carnations? Aren't they all so beautiful? My favorite flower isn't one you will order from a florist.

Because I know honeysuckle isn't the answer people expect. (My second...

Lean on Me

Posted by Christy Steele on

The name of our business is a dead giveaway that Shelly and I are believers. Sometimes they "know we are Christians" (as the old hymn goes) by our words, actions, and love that we show.  Sometimes, unfortunately, people have to look a bit deeper. That's because we're humans. God's grace has us covered, when we stray. But regardless if you are a believer or not, we hope you see we are like you in some ways. And even though threads of our spiritual beliefs are woven into our business, our blog posts, our social media, and our business name we...

Looking Back On The Blessings Of 2020

Posted by Christy Steele on

'I know the title to this blog post seems to be in conflict with what most people think of when they think, "2020". It has even become a catch phrase on social media. "That's so 2020" (along with many more). In no way at all would I want to diminish the trials, heartbreaks, and sickness that many have endured this year. This year hasn't been easy for my family either. But looking back it has been a blessed year. But I tend to be a cup half full type of person. My survival and sanity depends on not letting the...
