While housesitting in South Carolina, I prayed for insight and wisdom on how I might better place my trust in the Lord and in His timing.

Building bridges with #1 Amazon Bestseller book, Ask God
In my youth, I loved to experiment with bridges using blocks and Tinker Toys. There was something magical and practical about connecting one point to another and, thereby, allowing toy-cars access once denied. So it is with the #1 Amazon Bestseller book, Ask God.

Story Story: The essential part of any journey to success
My events leading up to finishing the book Story Story I awake from a dream I remember not. I spy the alarm clock: 5:44 am. “Yikes! It’s time to get Kaelyn to seminary!” I say as I strategically bump Denielle with my hand feigning a stretch. She doesn’t budge. My turn to get up. I fetch a…
Faith is like a little seed, if planted it will grow
“But we are only eight verses away,” Neil says excitedly as we were about to conclude our family scripture study. “We have to finish it!” For the first time as a family, we are about to complete the Book of Mormon, cover to cover. Yes, we have read many times from the Book of Mormon, but…

My purpose-driven blog post and its potential to drive you crazy
Living life with intent by prioritizing those things that matter most “I thought we would have more time to study together,” I commented to Denielle this morning as we exercised by walking the hills of a nearby neighborhood. “How are we busier now than before this new adventure?” It is an interesting phenomenon that a worldschooling, blogging-podcasting-publishing-business husband…
Parfrey’s Glen, Devil’s Lake, and a lesson about biker gangs
Day Three of Worldschooling and Housesitting By J. Denielle Morey We awake again at 5am; it appears the sun gets up early here in Wisconsin. I make everyone stay in bed until 7 am. We have an easy breakfast of yogurt granola, and fruit or cereal. The kids read scriptures on their own and free…
Day One: Immortal Thoughts
As I watch my family drive off without me By Kyle LB Morey “I am an immortal being having a mortal experience,” I say to myself as I awake from a dream. The details of the dream fly away like balloons bursting with helium. Noticing a light in the adjacent bathroom, I suddenly have an…
What should my book title be? Ask God.
By Kyle LB Morey Like a hiker who is confronted with a choice between two paths, we, my book team and I, struggled with two different subtitles for my book Ask God. “Why don’t you ask God?” my book shepherd, Ellen, hinted. She is brilliant. That’s why I hired her. So, I spent some time…
