Feeling left out? Read this.
One of my greatest sadnesses in this life comes from a place of pain. I’m not sure exactly why, but as a child, I often felt on the outskirts, not a part. I observed a lot (perhaps this makes me a better novelist?). And oh how I longed to be part of the with it […]

When Trolls Win in Your Life
We hear a lot about trolls, folks who just enjoy saying mean things. They tend to gain steam on this boulevard called the Internet. And they can hurt us. Deep. I’ve been reading through some of my 2500 past posts this summer and stumbled across this one. Oh how it messed with me and blessed […]

Are you living in the tension of an unfinished story?
I’m reading through some of my 2500 past posts and sharing some of the most impacting ones (at least for me, and according to feedback from you. This one hit me hard (again) because I think we often live in the tension of an unfinished story. This side of eternity we will never experience “the […]

I thought it had died
So some strange/interesting things have happened with this little book about Spiritual Warfare. When I wrote it, wow, so much spiritual warfare swirled around me. My prayer team worked on overload to get me through it. Much of what I wrote about, I learned on the battleground of France where the spiritual warfare was thick […]

13 Warning Signs for the Christian Celebrity
As you know, I’ve been reading through my 2500 past posts this summer. I found this one and wondered whether I should share it or not. But it serves as a good cautionary tale for anyone who in some way has status within the Christian subculture. You don’t have to be “famous” to glean truth […]

Are you in the sagging middle?
This summer I’m reading through some of my past 2500 posts (whew! I write a lot), and I came across this one that I think might just bless you. If you’re alive, chances are you feel like you’re stuck in the middle of something: parenting, career-ing, relationship-ing, life-ing. And there are untied ends, unresolved conclusions. […]

Write your own Psalm!
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m reading through some old blog posts. This one caught my eye because I feel lately like I’m facing my own Red Sea. And it’s time to grab a pen and write my own psalm of deliverance. I pray this wee little instruction blog sets you afire (in a good way) […]

When God Doesn’t Seem Good
I’m reading through old posts, and I came across this one based on a letter I received from a reader. It’s heartbreaking, and I wish I could jump through the screen to hug this girl Amy. I did the best I could by writing her back. But even then, the question lingers. Is God good? […]

Learn this: change your life
I’m perusing through my 2500 blog posts (Yep, I’m crazy), realizing just how much I need to learn. We’re all on a journey, right? But this post about a powerful word (see below) made my heart jump. Why? Because I’m actually DOING THIS RIGHT NOW. I’ve finally listened to my own advice! How fun is […]

Your Unfinished Story
I ran across this post, and it eerily resonated with me, though it was written a few years ago. It made me think, I wonder if we all live with the tension of an unfinished story no matter where we are in life? Maybe the key is to live an adventurous, compelling story, even if […]
