What To Do First to Make a Profit

The PF Women Team at our Annual Team Retreat  ~ 2018 Today on Seth Godin's blog, he said: It's tempting to decide to make a profit first, then invest in training, people, facilities, promotion, customer service and most of all, doing important work. In general, though, it goes the other way. Yes, it does. If you are waiting to make a profit before you do these things, in my experience you're  not going to make a profit. So many organizations, ministries and churches are struggling with financial issues. I know your pain. As anyone who follows our story knows, our ministry was in a ton of debt four years ago when I came on as director.  Since that time, we've gotten out of debt and turned a profit every year.  God has done amazing things through out team, for which we give Him the glory! I find that what Seth is saying here is absolutely true, with one disclaimer. For Christian leaders, spiritual disciplines must always be first. Before we started i...

Butterscotch Breakfast Rolls

Every Thanksgiving and Christmas morning (and vacation if we are in a rented condo, etc.) I make butterscotch sweet rolls and my family is craaaazy about them. Jordan just walked in the door moments ago from spending the night at a friends house and said, "Mom...you have to start making two pans of these rolls instead of just one...there aren't enough!" I could probably make several pans and they would still say they aren't enough. It's the sort of thing you could just keep eating and eating. Try these...I promise, you'll like them.




BUTTERSCOTCH SWEET ROLLS
1 box or bag of frozen dinner rolls. (You can use the kind that is in frozen dough form, or the ones I prefer are Sister Schuberts frozen yeast rolls. When using Sister Schuberts they are already pre-baked and you just take them out of the freezer and they quickly warm up. Using Sister Schuberts I make the rolls the morning of.  If you use the ones that are in frozen dough form you have to prepare the recipe the night before, but it's still very easy to do.)

Ingredients
1 bag/box rolls
1 small box of butterscotch pudding (the kind you cook - NOT instant)
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 stick melted butter

If using frozen dough rolls get them out the night before. Spray a 9 x 13 pan  or grease it with oil. Place frozen rolls in the pan. (I usually use Parkerhouse frozen dough rolls when doing the night before.) Mix the other three ingredients in a bowl and spoon it over the rolls.  If doing the overnight method, place a kitchen towel over the bundt pan and keep it in the oven (cold - not turned on) all night long. When you wake up in the morning, take the towel off, and turn the oven on to 325 degrees. Bake for about 20-30 minutes, or until it looks done. Don't let rolls burn. Let them get just lightly brown and cook just long enough for them to be done on the inside. Take rolls out of oven, turn over onto a plate and serve. (You'll need to eat them with a fork as they are real "gooey" but so yum!)

Now, as I said before, my first choice is to make these rolls using Sister Schuberts brand.  They are much better that way in my opinion.   If using Sister Schubert's rolls, they come in a bag of 10, and  I take them out the morning of, and put them in a 9 x 13 pan.  I mix the other three ingredients and spoon it on top, bake a few minutes, then turn the rolls over and make sure they are totally coated in the gooey coating.  Then after about 10-15 minutes take out and serve immediately.

So good!

Some people will never understand this...

And that's okay. Just let us be as we lavish love upon the fur-kids of the world. It doesn't mean we don't care about people. We do care. In fact most of the people I know who are great pet lovers are also the greatest philanthropists. If you're not a dog lover, you might not understand the overwhelming intensity that many of us felt about Tank's reunion this past week. You might think we've lost our marbles. That's okay, we think you've lost your heart. ;)  Before I go on with this post, let me say that we were delighted that CBS 10 posted the video and article about Tank and his Celebration Church reunion yesterday. Click here to watch it. (But then come back!) If you haven't realized it, there is a revolution in America about dogs. Dogs have always been loved and known as the most loyal companions ~ "man's best friend". But things have gone way beyond this. Dogs aren't just dogs or friends anymore. They are family me...

Sisterhood Rises Up To Change Lives Forever

God is in the business of preserving families. It is His heart. It's my heart too. And, I'll unabashedly say here that I believe it should be everyone's heart. Everyone likes good news and I've got some for you today. If you are in doubt that God still speaks today and that He uses people to accomplish His work, I pray this will speak to you. Last night I was sitting in service at Celebration Church where we are pastors, and my husband was preaching. His message was about what we want to be remembered for in life, and he made the statement that we can't change our past but we can change the future.  In that moment, God spoke to me. He began to give me my next post for Lost Daughters, where I'm also a blogger. To be honest it's more than just another place where I blog. It's a sisterhood. A lifeline. A place that has come to mean a great deal to me, because of the amazing women who are there. During the service I basically had this entire post...
