In the last couple of emails, I have been focusing on the resurrection and why it’s important for our salvation, and I would like to continue with this theme for a few more months as there is still much more to discuss regarding this fundamental doctrine of the Christian Faith. Not only is the resurrection important […]
A couple emails ago, I claimed that the resurrection “vindicates Christ,” and we looked at one way it does this. Today, I’d like to explore another way the resurrection vindicates Him: It does so by proving His righteousness. When God raised Christ from the dead, He declared to the world that the sacrifice made by Jesus was sufficient. […]
Recently, as a business, we have begun sending monthly emails to those who subscribe to our email list. These emails contain a few small articles; one mentioning our top sellers for the month, another giving some detail of what has been happening behind the scenes of FGG, and then a short devotional-type article written by me (Shaun), […]
Just a few days ago, we celebrated Easter, but have you ever thought much about what Easter is all about? Is it just about bunnies and finding hidden eggs? These things may be fun and cute (especially for children), but they are not what Easter is all about. On Easter, we remember and celebrate the life and […]
There are many reasons relationships can be lost, but for any relationship to ever be restored, there needs to be forgiveness. Forgiveness is critical in any true and lasting relationship and this is certainly the case for our relationship with our Creator as well. The Bible never shies away from the truth of our need to be […]
February tends to be the time when we get the most snow out here, which makes it a great time to rebuild stock for the rest of the year. February, however, is not just a time to rebuild our stock levels, it is also the month where a large population of the world set aside one day […]
Christmas has come and gone and the new year has arrived. Yet, for many of us, “the weather outside is (still) frightful.” What do we do with ourselves during these next few months of cold weather, snow, and rain? For small businesses like ours, that rely strongly on craft shows, our tendencies are typically to shrink back […]
It’s crazy how things can just change in an instance. I had been wrestling with, what we had all thought was, a bad neck for a couple of weeks. It started on Elisabeth’s birthday weekend. We had gone to Silverwood, an amusement park near us, and I felt awful all day. Very dizzy and just out of […]
Now that we have fully introduced ourselves and our podcast to you, it’s time to get into the meat of our content! For the next few months all of us will be speaking on our individual crafts, typically we will be talking about the general history of the craft as well as how we started doing it and some information you’ll need to help you learn. First up is Shaun’s craft; woodcarving.
The Season of “Joy” It’s less than a week until Christmas, every road you drive down is decorated with Christmas lights, every radio channel is playing Christmas music, and everyone is out doing their last-minute shopping. The atmosphere is great this time of year; people tend to be a lot happier and friendlier to those around them. […]
