Broken Things Made Beautiful

March 4, 2015 By Tricia Goyer

I remember when my first novel From Dust and Ashes: A Story of Liberation came out in 2003. I was so excited to share it with my friends who'd believed in my writing dreams. But out of all the people who read the novel, there was one person's comments that stand out the most. My friend Kathy had worked with me to start Hope Pregnancy Center in Kalispell, Montana. She's also been in the Bible Study … [Read more...]

Don’t judge a book by its . . .

Is Chivalry on the Brink of Extinction?

February 20, 2015 By Jody Hedlund

With the recent release of Fifty Shades of Grey movie and its popularity, I can't help but wonder about the long term consequences that such ideology will have on how people view relationships. Already, too many couples struggle to maintain happy, healthy relationships. In fact, it's become almost a monthly occurrence to get news of another friend or acquaintance who's dealing with a spouse … [Read more...]
