My baby had a baby! As some of you may know, I have two daughters. One is quite visible on the blog and podcast--Rebecca, my oldest. She's co-authored both The Great Sex Rescue and She Deserves Better with me, and we talk frequently about her two little ones. Katie's...

Let’s learn to have FUN again! | Reader Highlights from the Week
When was the last time you ran so fast you could hardly feel your feet hit the ground? What about dancing crazily in the kitchen to your favourite song, or feeling the rush of going down a hill really fast on your bike? Moving is FUN when we actually let ourselves...
It’s Going, Going, Gone!
31 Days to Great Sex is almost gone. Well, it will resurrect in the summer. But it's gone until then. Let me explain. I've been selling 31 Days to Great Sex on my own since 2012. I created it originally in ebook form, and then I paid for it to be published in...
Emmanuel–God with Us. Merry Christmas!
The presents need wrapping (and one needs buying). A few gifts still need to be finished off. The bedrooms that will soon be filled by my kids who are returning home need some tidying. And I'm very excited! I'll be signing off for a week now to take a Christmas break...
Sentimental, Personalized Christmas Gift Ideas to Celebrate Family and Make You Cry
Are you at a loss trying to find Christmas presents for someone who has everything? I try to be quite deliberate with gifts, getting things that people truly need and that won't just take up space in closets or drawers or on counters. And I try to get things that...
Hit My 50th Before 50! Plus Something Super Rare…
I've been writing some pretty heavy pieces lately, and I wanted to give you all a bit of an update and a newsier side of the blog. Those who are signed up for my emails get more of this regularly (and especially those signed up for my prayer letters!), but I thought...
Watching Your Baby Go Through Labour is Hard–But Then There’s This
I have always said that Katie was my worst labour. With Rebecca, I was in labour for 10 hours. We got to the hospital too early, and they made me walk around the cafeteria for a few hours. I remember I spent most of that time in the bathroom at Women's College...
He’s HERE!
Baby Lindenbach arrived in the wee small hours of this morning. Mommy and baby are both doing well, but everyone is very tired after a very long day of work. Sheila asked me to specifically tell you all what an absolutely amazing support Connor was throughout...
Our Super Awesome Slow Cooker Freezer Meal Cooking Day Before the Baby Came!
It's Thanksgiving Monday here in Canada (a holiday), and we are all feeling thankful yet a little anxious. I'm writing this on Saturday morning, and as of yet there is no baby (and Rebecca is past her due date). But last week on social media I was posting about a...
Should This Wife Have to Be Sexier? I’m Asking YOU!
I need your help to figure out how to help this woman who wants to be sexier. I can't do it myself, because Saturday, I did this: I was cutting an onion to make dinner when Connor and Rebecca came back to town for the weekend and after the first slice thought, "Wow,...
Parenting Reader Questions: I Found My Daughter’s Sex Toy, My Husband Co-Sleeps with our Daughter, and More!
What do you do if you found your daughter's sex toy, or your son says something highly offensive at school? I have such a huge backlog of reader questions that I've decided to take a few Mondays this summer when I normally do a deep-dive into one question and instead...
Hiking in the Rain, Air BNBs, and Peasants
I'm horribly jetlagged, we had a wonderful trip to England, and I wish I could say I was excited to be home. Usually by the end of a trip I'm thinking, "Okay, this has been fun, but it's time to go home." I really wasn't thinking...
A Glimpse of Jesus While Overwhelmed with History
We've been having an amazing time in England! We spent a few days in London, and then we've been in Oxford for two days now. I won't share all my photos; there are too many. But here are just a few snapshots of what we've been...
