How I Study the Bible
I prayed long and hard about the next book I would write. As I did, God began to unfold the idea of a series of books just for girlfriends like us. It wouldn't be just one book, but a set of books, based on the Bible. They would sound more like a conversation over...

Do you need a perfect end of summer book to read? Might I make a suggestion? Fresh Out of Amazing is my own come out hiding story. Maybe it is your story too. Do you feel like you are responsible for all the things? Has your dream died? Does it look like every other...
read moreThe Word of God is Your LIFE
God's Word is powerful. Time and and time again when I have been weak and weary, God has used his Word to heal my heart. Not one time have I come seeking to be filled up when God has denied me. I think this is why I can't stop telling women about my love for God's...

She dropped my iPad just before I hurried out the door. With huge crocodile tears streaming down her face she pulled it from behind her back and sobbed, “I’m sorry, Mommy, I broke it.” For some reason I didn’t lose my mind over the shattering. I hugged her with a sigh...
