Read MorePrayer and Supplication
So many people around me seem to need prayer I thought I’d take the time to jot them down. You’re welcome to pray for these people and add your own request to the comment section: My dad is recovering from a heart procedure where they had to go in and open up his stents. My…
Read MoreWordful Wednesday
Exploring God’s Glory God’s glory. His holy presence. It’s something so many people desire. But are they really ready for it? In the Old Testament many prophets experienced God’s glory, and it wasn’t how many Christians today imagine it to be. Most often when God entered a place, the ground shook, the Temple filled with…
Read MoreTime Management 101: Marketing and Speaking
Just a smidge of what I do in regards to marketing and my speaking schedule. Marketing: 1. I’ve hired a nearly-fulltime assistant to help with marketing. She posts to my blogs, formats my newsletters, sends out packages, etc. 2. I fit my radio interviews, etc. into my calendar. I also schedule in things like email…
Read MoreLove stories
This month I posted about the significance of Valentine’s Day on another blog.

If you’ve been following my blog these last few weeks you already know I’ve been feeling a little stressed out and over committed. Simplify by Paul Borthwick was just what I needed. And God knew it even before I agreed to participate in this book review. Everything about this book is simple. The cover, the…
Read MoreIt’s the Little Things
“The Lord is with you, while you are with Him; and if you seek Him, He will be found of you.” –2 Corinthians 15:2 The other day my sister called me at noon. I wasn’t expecting the call. In fact, I had a whole day of plans already mapped out. But she was in town…
Read MoreMaking Room for God
That’s supposed to be the theme for lent, and while I’ve been really good at the giving up part of lent, I haven’t been able to add in the more time with God like I’d like. Part of it is a discipline issue. I’d have to get up much early than I already do to…
