I love writing this blog on a regular basis. However, writing books that I can hand a person to read when she (or he) is not connected to the internet or phone, one that can be passed from friend to friend and encourage them in a deeper way is my passion. My first book writingContinue reading “Christmas Presents with a Lasting Impact”

This book by Robin Jones Gunn is a 10 out of 10!  Usually when I get a new book from one of my favorite authors, the world stops. I make a cup of tea (hot or iced depending on the season). I put on my proverbial “do not disturb” sign and dig in. AndContinue reading “Tea With Elephants Book Review”

Finding Freedom in Talking to God
