Copy Cat
(c)Tricia Goyer 9/2006 More than anything, kids are copy cats. They see how their parents relate to the world, and they follow. I had a humorous example of this over the weekend. Saturday I threw a baby shower for one of the moms I mentor. She also has four-year-old and two-year-old daughters. Her two year…
Read MoreA Child’s Faith
While doing a Bible study on the Helmet of Salvation this morning, I said something that got a reaction out of my 6 year old that surprised me. I said, “When I became a Christian at 15…” Timmy, “What? You’re a Christian?” My mouth gaps open in unbelief. “You mean you don’t think I’m a…

Starting Your Day Out Right! Scripture, Short Devotion “But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever!

Read MoreBook MeMe
Found this one in my draft a while back… Beck tagged me with this on. One book that changed your life: It’s impossible to pick one. The Bible, of course, because when I started reading if for myself I could’t help but change under the power of God’s word.Other books I remember having a HUGE…
Read MoreAll Work, No Play
Rewrite in my own words- Life Balance Journal Sound familiar? We’ve all heard the expression, maybe even joked about it. But do our lives reflect our commitments? Have we allowed work, responsibility and obligation steal the joy and inspiration from our lives? For many, the answer is a resounding yes. But it’s not too late…
Read MoreWebsite Woes
Why, oh why did I ever want to tackle a website. Learning the code for blogger was hard enough. Now I got this website, with a host and a control panel that looks Greek to me. Guess I know now why the smart ones get a website designer. But alas, I’m a poor starving (well,…

from my weekend of writing and exceeded my goal of 10,000. Plus I FINISHED my mystery novella. Of course it still needs a lot of work, but the hard part is over. Or is it? This is really only the second WIP I’ve completed, and I never even edited the first one. Writing a mystery…
Read MoreChasing Rainbows
(c) Staci Stallings, 2005 I’ve always loved rainbows, so this lesson was a little hard for me to learn. A few friends and I got together to sing-one of my favorite things to do. One of the songs we pulled out was about chasing rainbows. It said in effect that we’re all just chasing pretty…

Read MoreMystery Novella
I’ve been working on a mystery novella for a couple of months with a great group of gals from my critique group. When this opportunity came about I dropped my current WIPs and jumped at the chance. In fact, it was something I’d been praying specifically for (among other things.) I’m not a huge fan…
