The Emperor is nekkid again and this time he has plenty of company
Greetings, friend, and thank you for being a part of this deeply appreciated community! I'm fresh off my last speaking engagement of the season. Serving the women of The Crossing Church in Kernersville, NC was a pure delight but Monday has come with a ton of mountain of responsibilities and tasks that need addressing. I'll get to them, but first, I wanted to share something
Want to help me launch my new book, Seizing the Good Life?
Hello my friends! I hope to come back and write more to you because I just flat out miss you, but-- I'm headed to the grand girls' tennis team matches this fine Monday so time is short on this side of the screen. That said-- I just realized this announcement is going to go out tomorrow, May 2nd, and I wanted YOU to hear of
Laughter, Road Trips, and a Podcast Tutorial for our Times
Happy November to you! I'm smiling as I type those words because the season of gratitude is upon us and I couldn't be happier about it. I'm counting my blessings and naming them one by one. High on my list is the good medicine recommended to us in Proverbs 17:22 -- LAUGHTER! As you've probably heard me say once or ten hundred times if you've
Denise Hildreth Jones visits The Story Table
Who drops the first episode of a new season of podcasts in the evening, rather than first thing in the morning? I know, I know! Me! If you've been in my circle for any length of time my unorthodox ways won't surprise you, and I'm perfectly fine coloring outside the lines, so let's get on with it. Today on The Story Table we're visiting with
When Your Smart Device Taunts You
Hey y'all! See this bad boy? He’s officially called a Zenergy but there’s a story behind his new nickname and he is not as innocent as this pic would suggest. The beloved farmer and I bought him a while back. (I wrote about it here.) We used him for a while —until he somehow got unplugged, and sat alone through the busy holidays. I fixed
You’re Invited to join the Finding Deep and Wide Launch Team! (With perks!)
Merry Christmas, dear readers! I'm simply beside myself, so brace yourself for some full out giddiness! After what seems like an eternity since I began writing it, and after more travail, praying, dark chocolate, and coffee than I could measure, boxes of my next book baby arrived at my home office today. YES! I've got a copy of Finding Deep and Wide right here with
I don’t want to trigger you, but…
Hi, I’m Shellie. Everything reminds me of a story, and I believe life is better when you’re laughing. Hit subscribe and stick around.

SRC News, Baby News, Book News & FREE stuff – it’s all here!
I’m Shellie, a laughter loving story stacking farmer’s wife, country cook, mom, and Keggie to five adorable grands with one on the way—HOORAY! I snuck that one in on y’all, but that’s okay. The kids snuck this one in on us, too. Everyone thought they were through. Including the shocked but excited parents. I’m also a speaker, author, and Bible teacher known as the Belle
Birthing Woes, Canine Terrorists, and a Potluck Podcast
Hey y'all, have a seat, and let's chat… I hope your summer has gotten off to a great start. It hasn’t taken long for things to heat up here in the northeast corner of Louisiana. Ironically, yet true to the life of the farmer, we were super late getting our crops planted because of all the rain—and now, we’re laying poly pipe and watering. So are
