It's party time!
So glad you're here!
We're the Narrow Gate Girls, otherwise known as Kim Zaksek, Maria Spencer and Julie Arduini. We live in NorthEast Ohio within minutes of each other. Last year we obeyed God's call to blog on deeper matters of faith.
None of us have the journey in Christ mastered, in fact, most of our blogging shows what we're learning, fighting, or re hashing a mistake or experience. Our party is different because we don't want to wear masks. What you see is what you get with us. And it's okay. In Jesus Christ we embrace that, and our hope is you embrace that fact about you, too.
We tend to get caught up analyzing what God is doing, so much so you might have to tap us at the buffet table and tell us to stop staring at the forks. We've gone out before thinking there might be a message from the Lord in the utencil area.
But we're fun, at least we think so! The rare times we get together we require one item: 
CHEESE FRIES!!!!
So please, make yourself comfortable, grab some cheese fries, ignore us lingering over the forks, and have fun. We'd love for you to visit often. You can subscribe to this blog via RSS feed or Feedblitz. You can also follow, or both! You can learn more about each of us by reading the sidebar here, and of course, through our individual posts. Feel free to invite others to visit, virtual cheese fries for all!
To make this fun for you, we have a book giveaway!
Women of Passions: Ordinary Women Serving an Extraordinary God is by our friends Jan Ross and Jeanice McDade. Maria and Julie both have work included in this book. Leave a comment on this post with a way on how to contact you if you win. We'll take comments from 12:00am March 20-11:59PM March 27. On March 28 we'll randomly pick one INTERNATIONAL entry and send a copy of this book (it's in English) to you.
Enjoy!

Love your focus and your friendship with purpose! Nice to find you on the UBP, tho' the cheese fries almost sent me away. :) Stop by Come Have a Peace. Have fun partying!
Hey Gals...
I saw your bloggy, but it was listed on the not so family friendly... I didn't know what that meant, but I saw your title and thought maybe the "narrow gate" was a reference about Jesus...
My blog is dedicated to Him as well...at least most of the time.
Blessings and feel free to stop by and visit... Kim
What a great introduction post! And Mmm Cheese fries!
Please include me in your draw.

I just jumped in on the UBP and am so glad to find you girls. Very refreshing blog! But those cheese fries look a little evil:)
Yum, cheese fries. How ironic that I would land on your blog first. I am trying to reconnect with the church and feeling like God is speaking to me more and more every day, trying to encourage me to make the right choices and stay away from the wrong ones. I will add your blog to my list as yet another place He's pointed me to for encouragement.
Enjoyed the party. :)
MMMMMM cheese fries! They'd be extra good with bacon crumbles.

Just stopping by to say hello on the UBP09 rounds. I LOVE cheese fries! YUMMO
Glad to find this blog. Julie I seem to run into you wherever I turn! Lovely thing to do though...
the book looks very interesting and I believe Canada is international, right? At least the Post Office would think so! :)
I should have eaten more dinner. That picture of the fries made my tummy growl and I don't want to eat right now because it is 10pm at night. (My brother is in Australia getting married as I type. The ceremony should have started 7 mintes ago!!)
Anyway, I am Canadian, mommy to 2 littles and LOVE to read!
Thanks for the chance to win.
First year participating in the party and what an amazing way to find new sites. I was telling my dh today what an amazing enouragement blogs can be if you are reading the right ones. Oh my, getting to be a bit rambly...I'd best stop!
Thanks for the cheese fries.. I've enjoyed your blog and I can't wait to visit again!! :)
Thanks for the give o way..
