Encouragement for every season of lifeRest in Him
At a church Bible study, the subject of resting in God was taught. Some of the author’s points were so good that I had to think about how it applied to me and how it applies to leadership principles. There are many different kinds of rest. Sleeping is one of my...
What If…?
Do you ever think about the “what ifs” in your life? What if I’d married that person instead of this person? What if I’d taken that job instead of this job? What if I’d been born into a different family? What if I’d made that decision instead of this one? What ifs can...
Walk Away the Workday
“50 is the new 40,” “Blush is the new neutral,” “This is the new that” is very trendy. We do our best to make people feel younger and in style. But the “this is the new that” trend has taken a nasty turn. I heard it the other day: “Sitting is the new smoking!” How is...

Woman of Great Worth
Voted ‘Easiest To Talk To’ in high school, I’ve never had a problem striking up conversation. I love people. And I’ll likely drop most anything to meet up with a friend. I just love being with people and thrive on deep conversation that makes me think, and ask, and...
Watch the Clouds
Watching the world news this week has been heart-wrenching as we saw pictures of men, women, and children die from a chemical attack on their town in Syria. With retaliation by our country last night, our hearts are grieving even more at a world-wide situation that...
Discover the Power of Faith-Filled Fiction in This Classic Series
Francine Rivers’ Mark of the Lion series is considered a classic of Christian fiction for good reason. Have you read the series? I am a big fiction reader, but I put off reading this series for years. I’m not really into biblical-era fiction. It can’t live up to the...
