My name is Martha. I am a 65+ mother of three daughters (and accompanying sons-in-law), grandmother of seven, and oldest of four.

I have been married to Ron for 44+years. He retired for the second time from the pastorate four years ago and in January 2013 will be part-time on a pastoral staff again. He is my dearest friend and the one who has helped me laugh for years!

With age, the grace of God has become very meaningful: that He demonstrated it to me, particularly on the cross when He paid the blood sacrifice required for my sin. And that He enables me to pass that grace on to others as I learn to forgive.

Join me as I share how the invasion of God's grace into the everyday grittiness of my life is transforming the drudgery, grit and sometimes even downright crap into something beautiful for His glory and delight!
