This week I’ve been thinking about what draws me into relationship with Jesus. Being me, I posed that question to my Facebook friends. The responses were challenging, inspiring, and all point to qualities of Christ. So I want to ask you the same thing as we head into the weekend. What do you love about Jesus? Here’s mine: I love that …
Vine: Have you tried it?
A friend showed me Vine a couple weeks ago, and the other day I downloaded the app. I tried to think of ways I could use it that would be fun and let you in to my writing world. So here’s my first attempt. What do you think? And if you’re on Vine, how do you use it? Any tips …
The Bare-Naked Truth : like a big sister coming alongside
As the mom of an almost teenager, I’m always on the lookout for books that will help us have the important conversations. This book addresses to lies regarding dating, waiting and God’s purity plan.

Ebooks & a Survey

Who knew it would snow so much for my birthday… Loving it. Isn’t this a great photo of our puppy? She LOVES the snow. Capital letters doesn’t quite do her affection for the white, cold, wet stuff justice. She won’t come in she loves it so much. She’s catching a snowball in this photo. Love it! We got 9-10 inches …
Moonlight Masquerade Review
Julie Klassen turned me into a Regency fan — I discovered I loved the time of Jane Austen’s England, but alas Julie only writes one book a year. With Moonlight Masquerade, Ruth Axtell joins this time period…and does so with an eye on the details that I was transported into this tale of impossible love and forbidden longing. Take a …
Turning Life Into Fiction: My Grandpa
We had my Grandpa’s services on Saturday, and then yesterday morning my uncle died. As I’ve been with family, I’ve thought about the legacy we leave behind. Grandpa was one of my heroes. Today, I wanted to share with you one way I turned who he was into inspiration for my stories. A couple years ago for Christmas, he had …
