Hi! Thank you for visiting my blog! I hope you will find something to make you smile, and that when you leave you will feel refreshed. My name is Kathy Pollard. I’ve been married for 29 years to Neal, my college sweetheart, who preaches for the Lehman Ave. church of Christ in Bowling Green, KY. We moved here from Denver, CO. From the Rocky Mountains to the Bluegrass state, God’s beauty is evident everywhere in His creation and His people!
I’m the author of the book Return to Me, which is about what to do when your loved ones turn away from God (Gospel Advocate).
Aside from spending time with my family, I enjoy going on short-term mission trips, writing, baking, playing tennis, and studying herbalism. I find pleasure in music, a good cup of coffee, and my rascally Westipoo, Oliver.
From the Heart…
I thank God for my salvation, made possible through the gift of His Son. I thank God for my husband, Neal, who is so generous with his love. And I thank God for my three sons, Gary, Dale, and Carl, who keep me bent over in laughter and on my knees in prayer. Our family has been made even more complete by our sweet daughters-in-love, Chelsea, Janelle, and Emily. Striving to make this house a home, my prayer is that everything I do will help my family live someday in that Eternal Home.
Life and Favor (Job 10:12)

I’ve never blogged. But your blog was such an encouragement. We worship at Northeast Church of Christ where Bud preaches and we have grown to love all the Woodall family as well as your Mom, Joyce. Kristy plays Scrabble with me and Lee and Kali do my yard work now and then. Kristy speaks very fondly of you. Gloria Needham

I came across your name because I have started a group on FB for Preachers’ Wives. I was a PW for 35 years until my husband’s death. PW hold a special place in my heart! I am trying to get the word out that there is a group available for PWs if they are interested. It is a closed group so one who is a member has to add the person. I hope and pray that 2016 will be a great year for you. Betty Albright-Bistrow

I just read your article in Christian Woman magazine and found your blog. Looking forward to reading through it! Loved your article on bible marking. I do this already but your study is more in depth than what I do. Looking forward to learning more about how to use this technique in my own personal study.
