The “rights” decision.

Posted on April 18, 2021 by kristy mapp • Leave a comment

Available as a podcast, click here to listen. As a Christian, you are not allowed to “do you.” By definition of the word, YOU belong to Christ. You have agreed by proclamation, wether that was baptism or confession before another, that He is your Lord and that you will live a life dedicated to Him. … Continue reading →

The Struggle is REAL.

Writing this for my class at Liberty University.. and thought that it was worth sharing… If I were to apply a biblical world view to my desires it would look like Philippians 2:3-5, “Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only … Continue reading →

coming unglued

This week has been a convicting one. I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance, and how you cannot bear with those who are evil, but have tested those who call themselves apostles and are not, and found them to be false. I know you are enduring patiently and bearing up for my name’s sake, and you have … Continue reading →

Kristy, we have a problem..

Today there was this ‘good’ vs. ‘bad’ thing going on in my head during church. Or maybe it was more like a ‘spirit’ vs. ‘flesh’ thing. This has been going on for some time each Sunday as we come in to service and begin to sing. Part of me does NOT want to sing… and … Continue reading →

see ya later high horse

Posted on January 15, 2013 by kristy mapp • 2 Comments

It comes in many different sizes and shapes… my high horse is my pride in the fact that I have attained a trust and faith in God that many have not.  It couldn’t be further from the truth.  Sure there have been times when my life is revolving around trusting God to provide, and I … Continue reading →

in the midst of sanctification

Posted on January 1, 2013 by kristy mapp • 1 Comment

It’s been an interesting past few weeks for me, and though I cannot go into full detail for the sake of my friends and family, I can expound on some lessons that God has shown me.  “Be careful what you wish for”.. or in my case, pray for.  He will answer you if your heart truly desires … Continue reading →

my Lot in life

Posted on December 7, 2012 by kristy mapp • 1 Comment

We are in the midst of reading through Genesis at my Bible study group.  What is awesome, and a whole other story is that my husband is also now doing the same study (different day, just for men) so we have had major conversation time concerning what God is teaching us.  It’s an amazing thing … Continue reading →

Prune Me

A while back I met a lady named Teresa.  If you have followed my blog for a while you will remember that she is the one I spoke to when I was at the women’s retreat, and quit smoking.  She is all about fitness and asked if I wanted to be on her mailing list. … Continue reading →

What is happening to me?

Posted on May 13, 2012 by kristy mapp • Leave a comment

Two weeks ago I was given the honor (for the second year in a row) to photograph Haworth’s annual Prom party.  It is becoming a tradition for them to show a good time to the architectural and interior design community for specifying their furniture on their projects each year.  I was excited about going, to … Continue reading →

The Path Chosen

Posted on October 12, 2011 by kristy mapp • Leave a comment

It seems like every time I get a lead on a photo job, or have an idea for a cool mini-session something happens to erase it.  In the past week I have had 2 rain-outs, 2 leads gone somewhere else, and a string of slaps in the face when I try to do it my … Continue reading →

The Drought

Ok, so I bet you are all wondering about the whole previous boss and design gig, huh?  Well, an amazing thing happened… I was given favor in the eyes of the company I am doing this side biz for, and they wrote up a contract with me.  It explicitly states that I am not an … Continue reading →

Over the past couple days, I have been contemplating on wanting more STUFF.  I spent 3 hours on har.com looking at what kind of houses were for sale in my area.  When I came to my senses and realized that buying a new house was outside of our budget, I started looking around, trying to … Continue reading →

Submission

Posted on April 9, 2011 by kristy mapp • Leave a comment

Life gets more and more interesting around here. Last Tuesday (the day after I told my boss that I would be pursuing photography), I took my son to the doctor for an eye infection. While we were there I had the doc check out another area of concern on my boy. Turns out, he needed … Continue reading →

Oh! My Awesome God is an online commentary and advocate for the work of Jesus Christ. We believe that the Bible, in its entirety, is divine revelation, and we submit to the authority of Holy Scripture, acknowledging it to be inerrantly inspired by God and carrying the full weight of His authority. We believe in justification by faith alone as the article on which the church stands or falls, and we are never to compromise on this essential truth of the Christian faith. Please feel free to share these notes with others as the goal of this writing is for God's glory, not ours. If you wish to use a graphic, please contact us, and we will send a full resolution image.
