Ungrateful Kids by James R. Coggins
“Lord,” the man prayed, “it’s these kids you gave me. They’re driving me nuts. They’ve phoned me fourteen times this week, and not once was it anything positive. They only called me to complain or to ask for something: ‘I … Continue reading

New Clothes and Shoes by Julie Arduini
Happy Fall! This is typically my favorite time of year with the gorgeous leaves, smells of apples and bonfires, and cooler weather that I long for in the heat of July. I’m also done with big travels this year, so … Continue reading
Praising God When You’re Worried by Bridget A. Thomas
Do you make praising God a priority in your life? I confess I didn’t know the importance of praising God until 2020. When we went through the pandemic, and the world seemed to fall apart, there were two things that … Continue reading
Stereotyping by Nancy J. Farrier
Stereotype: something conforming to a fixed or general pattern. Have you ever put certain people into a stereotype group? An absent-minded professor. A nosey, gossipy, or talkative woman. Perhaps a motorcycle gang member as being outside the law. A young … Continue reading
Hydrangea Evangelism by Julie Arduini
This has been the best summer for my flowers yet. My roses bloomed for a straight month, and I see round two is coming up. I’ve had roses bloom as late as November before. The one showcase has been the … Continue reading

2021 Themes for the Year by Julie Arduini
Each year I pray and ask the Lord what word does He have for me in the coming year. Past years have been about abundance, revive, and abide to name a few. The words tend to come in October, and … Continue reading

A Prayer for You by Nancy J. Farrier
Every year I read through the Bible. I’ve done this so many years, I’ve lost count of the number of times. The only year I didn’t make it through was the year I tried to read along with my church … Continue reading

It’s a rite of passage for authors. The one-star review/rating. The dread of it kept me from writing for publication for decades. Yes, decades. In my young adult years I was tied to what people thought of me. It kept … Continue reading
