"Will you choose to reflect on the truth that we are all here for such a time as this–––we are the modern-day Esther’s and the fact that the Lord has us here now, at this time in history, is amazing! He knew when He’d need us here. He chose us to be here now."

"Affirmation is a powerful tool in this pursuit. I was so blessed to have a mother who continually affirmed me, setting a beautiful example of love and care. Today, I encourage us all to adopt that same lifestyle of sincere affirmation..."

December 2023

"I’ve been challenged this year with what feels like “less time,” but I’m choosing Jesus and His joy during this season. I’m re-defining what Christmas should truly look like, and I’m settling in, in a peaceful way, for an “it’s an okay mindset.”..."

October 2023

"I had a wonderful month, full of learning how to handle my new podcast, The Women Behind the Words, and what it will take to make it smooth and seamless. I give a grateful shout out of thanks to my team behind the scenes that make all they send out look absolutely stunning!..."

July/August 2023

"Where do I begin? This started as a July Newsletter. It became July/August Summer Newsletter. Now the end of August is sneaking in. Before it becomes a quarterly newsletter, I have vowed to not leave my desk until it’s done! After reading the stories below, you’ll understand why I’ve been missing in action..."

June 2023

"Feisty. That’s how I felt. Maybe with a drop of rude mixed in to give my last biting comments a touch more color. I don’t do that often. I’m kind. So, when I do, I seem to justify it at the moment, convincing myself I should take the opportunity to speak my mind. Been there?..."

May 2023

"For over 30 years I knew God had called me to write. I wondered how I’d ever do it. My life was jammed-packed. I couldn’t imagine being free to fulfill that call. I would beg Him to lift the desire to be a writer off my heart again and again..."

"I woke my little girls up, got them dressed in their best dresses, and told them we were going back to church. Joy rang through our hearts and home that Easter morning. We were going home. I called my brother, and shouting “halleluiah,” he promised to pick us up for church, but he’d be a little late..."

"The shepherd’s story mattered–––it still matters. And we celebrate it every year. I love this. Profound, isn’t it? God sent the proclamation of the birth of His Son, the Savior of this world, through majestic angels, to the ears and eyes and hearts of lowly shepherds. Not kings."

November 2022

"When they begin to realize their story has the possibility to change the course of history, affecting the outcome of eternity one heart at a time, excitement to make a difference for the Kingdom begins to take root in their hearts..."
