More than I could ask or think

March 3, 2021 By D'Ann Mateer

I confess, I didn’t know until yesterday what I would post today. I’m not usually that late in deciding my topic. (Actually writing the post? Well, that might be a different story!) Anyway, I had no idea what to write about. But, strangely, I wasn’t stressed. I figured the Lord would come through with an idea just in the nick of time.

Companions for the Journey

January 18, 2021 By Lynn Austin

A long time ago, before I had published a single word, a writer friend invited me to join a Christian writers’ group. Of course, I declined.

A surreal blessing . . . unwrapped

December 1, 2020 By Tamera Alexander

There are moments in your life that give you pause. Some are bitter, some are sweet. I received my Christy Award Hall of Fame award in the mail last week, which was definitely a sweet one! I opened the package, then the box and, for a moment, I simply stared, letting what still feels like a fairly surreal blessing sink in. My thoughts quickly turned back to 2008 when I won my first … [Read more...]
