Titus 2 Minutes
Happy Weekend, beautiful girls! Fun treat for you today! Go get an iced latte to sip because I have a special friend for you to meet today and since I can't introduce her to you in person at a little coffee house, this is the next best thing! I really love this girl and her amazing heart. She loves the Lord, encouraging women, and she shares her story and recent marriage in such an inspirational way! We met briefly in college, as we were both Home Ec majors and I wish I'd had the opportunity to spend more time with her. So happy she's joined this blogging community, give her a warm hello and introduce yourself and follow her - she is a friend you want to make!
5 // I interned at ZOE International Ministries which is an organization that fight human trafficking. Before I interned there, I thought that human trafficking was something that only happened in other countries. I was shocked to learn that it happens in the United States too.

Wife, homemaker,
daughter, secretary, event planner – those are all words that can describe me.
And while they are all true and all things that I blog about, what I desire to
be known as is a follower of Christ. The main goal of my blog is to encourage women
to exalt Christ in their daily living. Titus2Minutes was started based upon the
principles of the passage Titus 2. I know that none of us have a ton of spare
time, so I wanted to create a blog that would {Lord willing} inspire and
challenge my readers in a matter of minutes.
“Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not
malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, so that
they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their
children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to
their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored.” ~ Titus 2:3-5
5 Things About Courtney
1 // On Sunday, I will have
been married for four months! They have been the best and sweetest four months
of my life. My husband is my best friend, encourager, supporter, and role
model. You can share in our special day here: http://titus2minutes.wordpress.com/2013/05/31/melonaslove-nick-courtney/
2 // My passions in life are
event planning, missions, adoption, teaching other women, and homemaking. I
know – I have a lot of passions! :)
3 // I am the oldest of seven
children. My youngest two siblings are adopted from Haiti. Someday my husband
and I would love to have a big, multi-cultural family.
4 // I majored in Home
Economics at The Master’s College, which is actually how I met Erin. Home
Economics is a major that I wish more women knew about. Beyond just “stitching
and stewing,” we were taught practical things such as nutrition, principles of
finance, clothing construction, and how to be godly women in our society.
