Welcome!

 

Welcome to the Hallelujah House! Slip off those shoes by the door and make yourself at home while I share how this all started.  In 2015 God planted a vision in our hearts to be prepared. My husband Jay and I set out to build a farmhouse and learn how to prepare for times of trouble. We’ve made many mistakes along the way, but also learned many lessons as we surrendered to the Father’s guidance. My hopes are to share what we’ve learned in faith, sustainability, and perseverance so we can all flourish in times of crisis. That is why I chose the name The Hallelujah House for such a time as this. No matter what trouble lies beyond your door, if your heart, home, and harvest are prepared, you will have joy and peace through it.

 

In order to easily navigate the blog you can click on any of the categories in the menu to read past articles. “Heart” is our spiritual growth section, in “Home” you will find many of our practical how- to articles, and “Harvest” includes articles on parenting, marriage, ministry, and cultural awareness.

 

Our ultimate mission is to shine God’s light into a dark world. Our website reflects our belief in a loving Savior, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who died on a cross in order to give eternal life. If you would like to know how to accept Jesus as your personal Savior I pray you will reach out to me personally, so I can lead you through the process. It’s as simple as surrendering your life to be used by God and accepting His gift of grace.

 

I am so thankful you came by to visit, and I encourage you to subscribe by email, so you won’t miss any of our articles, future podcasts announcements, or videos. Feel free to comment on the articles or reach out to team members personally. You will find their contact information under the “Team” tab.

 

If you share a love for ministry, a talent for writing, and a knowledge of preparedness, consider joining our team. We are currently seeking new contributing writers. You can forward a cover letter, writing sample, or your own blog address to tadams22@icloud.com.

 

Well, I better go check those chickens, the hawks are swirling about, but feel free to stay a while. There’s a beautiful view from the porch.

 

Be blessed!

    If Chestnut Trees Could Talk Week 3

    February 15, 2018 / 2 Comments

      Many times when you plant a young tree you stake and tie it, so it has a support system for growth, but a Chestnut Tree shouldn’t be staked and tied when it’s newly planted unless it has an immature root ball.  A Chestnut Tree needs the movement to grow. When a Chestnut Tree sways in the wind, it stimulates its roots to grow, and also allows the trunk to become thicker at the base. This movement creates a healthy tree. This brings us to the third thing the Chestnut Tree wants to tell us:   III.  When planted if a Chestnut tree is tied and staked tight, it will never…

    “We’ll call ourselves ‘Starfish Sisters’.” My friend Heather said over lunch. “You know after the Starfish story.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uytlJ8urv4I (Click the link for the starfish story.) That was how it began, about thirty Momma’s and Grandmomma’s coming together to make a difference in the world, or at least, at a charity in Orlando, Florida. Heather sent us an assignment, we hired a babysitter, and went to work. One of our first assignments was for a charity called Mending Hearts, owned by a powerhouse named Stephanie Richards. I was pumped and ready to go. The assignment? Clean a house and get it ready for a family. I could do that! I had…

    Since Tricia passed away, and my days are consumed with caring for Isabella, memories of our childhood, seem to find their way into my thoughts. A time when Brandon, Tricia, and I, thought we were invincible, and live at least until 100. As children, Tricia and I promised each other when our husbands died, we’d live out our days together. We weren’t planning on murdering them, it just never occurred they may outlive us. I am convinced our family had more guardian angels than most. This is not a prideful statement, for we just required more to stay alive. Trouble came natural to us. In order to prove this, I…

    Take Down the Walls

    February 20, 2015 / No Comments

    I know how it went down… “Psst… Hey Fisher the door’s open, let’s go check out some hot felines. You know the street variety called strays.” “But Finley, Momma made us monks.” Fish said. “A man can look.” Finley said. I found one of the escapees, the shy one named Fisher or Fish as we like to call him hiding in the shrubs, but my tailless Finley is still missing, and I am consumed with finding him. I have worn down the tile by the windows. I’ve stuck my head in many shrubs, and snooped in the backyards of my neighbors. (gulp…sorry ya) All I can think about is how…

    In the hall, she laid heavy and limp on the tile floor, illuminated only by the light spilling from the bathroom. That is where the children found her. I was unloading bags from the car, when blood curdling screams made me drop everything and run. “Don’t let my Mommy die Tammy!” Peyton said.  I will never forget the look on my niece’s face, as she looked at me for reassurance. Her little hands patting her mother’s still face. I leaned her head back in Peyton’s lap and gave her mouth to mouth. She gasped, while her eyes rolled up into the back of her head. She was not coherent, but…

    A Story from India

    March 22, 2012 / No Comments

    A few nights ago, I played old hymns on the piano as my boys nestled into bed.  As I played, each song brought a memory to mind. Some of them, my family would sing around the piano, while my mother pelted the keys, Brandon banged his drum set, Tricia shook her maracas, and I… well, for those of you who know this story, I had my sticks. (My mother gave me the sticks, while my siblings got the cool instruments at Christmas time.) My dad would proclaim proudly, “We are the Carters!” (meaning the Christian Griswolds) The windows were open for we had no air conditioning at the time. Begrudgingly,…

    The Ladder of Hope

    “Am I going to die?” His eyes filled with fear, as he searched those of the first responder. “Yes, you are,” the firefighter said. “So, you better take this time to get everything right with Jesus.” “They were supposed to find me in time,” he said between sobs. “ I was only trying to get my parent’s attention.” The firefighter looked up from the blood pressure cuff he placed on the teen’s arm. “You succeeded. Without a doubt, you earned their complete attention now.” The firefighter loaded the boy onto a rolling gurney. “I didn’t think Tylenol could kill a person…not really.” He broke down in tears as he he…

    Over the Trash Heap and Through the Storm…

    February 28, 2012 / No Comments

    Although he knew his Momma would whip him good for being there, he played in a landfill with two of his friends. Thirteen year old Emmanuel was collecting cans to make cars out of them, for there were no toys, except those made by trash. A stranger appeared over the mound. The pack knew everyone in their small village, and this man was not familiar to them. He approached and asked his friend named Courageous, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Courageous without thought spouted out the job his mother did. “I want to be a teacher,” he said. For in Ghana, there is a limitation…

    To Be the Man He’s Made to Be.

    January 25, 2012 / 3 Comments

            He tried on the bright green hideous looking camouflage boots, and walked around the Bass Pro in a circle. I cringed, not wanting my son to arrive Christmas night in Suffolk, Virginia wearing shrubs on his feet. “Christian, what about these? These are classy looking.” I held up some hip Under Armor hiking boots. He looked me in the eye. “Momma, you have to let me be the man I am made to be.” He pointed his toe in my direction. “This is who I am.” That night, Christian looked over at my smiling face in the car. “Momma, just because the camouflage didn’t fit, doesn’t…
