My Husband, My brother in Christ

I especially enjoy writing about Biblical Womanhood as well as the application of Biblical theology from the perspective of a woman longing to communicate my love for who God is as revealed in His Word of knowable and applicable truth and NOT who I imagine He is from some sentimental, me-centered perspective that is based on relative, roller-coaster ride of self-sustained religion 'truth'. In other words, I like to encourage others to press on in His truth and His love for His glory.

But then, everything I have written has likely been said a whole lot better by someone else. I definitely have no insight that is deeper than what God has already revealed. Therefore, if you find anything of value here than give God the glory!

"Lisa at Deo Volente is another blogger that I'd love to meet with and share some coffee. She's been through some rough circumstances in her life, and she's come through them clearly showing the grace of God, and honouring Him through those circumstances. Her various posts are sometimes funny, often really make you think, and always theologically sound."-Jen at JoythruChrist

Lisa is passionate about her reformed faith and her posts reflect how her faith is practically applied to situations in her life. Very difficult ones, from time to time...Ukrainiac

"Lisa's site has become one of my new favorites to read and to participate. I think she brings a nice touch to the application of theology to everday life as a woman and as a mother. It's sort of like Secret— strong enough for a man, but made for a woman." -Young Wilderness Voice

"Praise the Lord! I have finally found the sold-out, brainy Christian women bloggers, and from what I can tell so far, most of them are Reformed to boot! I knew they had to be out there somewhere. It was just a matter of time. I was directed to Lisa’s blog this morning ...which led to Carla’s blog ... and these are leading me to many others." -Katy at Logoscentric

The Sound of Music

Brenton Brown has this incredible site where he provides, not only .pdf's of his music, but up close video clips that show how he plays the chords on his guitar to his music.

Paul Baloche provides lead sheets, listen and play, lyrics and chords, piano and band charts, and even some video clips for some incredible songs.

WorshipTogether.com is another excellent resource that you don't want to miss out on.

METRONOME ONLINE is a really useful site if you have children learning to play the guitar or piano, or really any instrument. Of course, they would have to be near a computer for it to be useful. :-)

Thank you for posting the link to the guitar chords. My daughter, who will be 14 on the 27th, wants an electric guitar for her birthday. She began learning how to play my acoustic guitar about a week ago.

Actually, Diane, I noticed on your site that you are a guitar player. You are one of the persons that came to mind when I posted this. :-)

I started playing recently as hand therapy. Because of the MS I lost function in my left hand. When I began to get some feeling back, I went out and bought a guitar to force myself to use that hand. It has really helped A LOT because I have always wanted to learn to play. Now my 2 older boys and I take lessons from an incredible instructor that comes to our home to give us lessons once a week. My 12 year old is now doing the electric base, my 13 year old is finger picking the acoustic guitar and learning so quickly partly because of those online resources, and I'm slowly learning to play that 12 string.

I'd like a Taylor 6 string next and my older boys wants an electric guitar for his birthday. FUN!!!

Oh neat Lisa, thanks. I was learning how to play the acoustic guitar until I realized my fingers might be a bit too short. My almost 14 yr. old has longer fingers, and she's been faithfully practicing.

I do have a dulcimer that is a bit easier to play, so I need to get back into practicing with that. I love music, and have brothers, and nephews who play the guitar.
