3 Reasons to Feel Thankful and Secure

It’s no coincidence that we’re days away from the American holiday of Thanksgiving, and I’ve just received my editor’s revisions. Gulp. Lord, why can’t I simply be thankful to publish my books and feel secure in Your favor? But even after having published fifteen books with four traditional publishers and working with many top editors, I’m still anxious and insecure ...

Israel at War: Part I (Nov. 2023)

When my feet stood on the Promised Land in February 2000, I realized Israel is to the world what the heart is to the human body—the epicenter of life and breath. Perhaps it sounds overly dramatic, but when I exited our plane and stepped onto the pavement at Ben Gurion Airport, something inside me shifted. Though I was 6,000 miles ...

Control vs. Surrender – Living Victoriously

When I was a little kid, I remember attending old-fashioned “camp meetings” (outdoor revivals in huge, white tents) with my grandmother. The pianist and organist played on a stage with a choirmaster who stood behind a large pulpit. His arms bounced in rhythm with old hymns as the audience belted out, “Victory in Jesus, my Savior forever!” But when the ...

Ah-Hah! Research Discoveries About Joseph in Egypt

Part of what I love most about research is the stunning discoveries that come with every project. I never dreamed high-priest Jehoiada was in his mid-nineties when he married 16-year-old Jehosheba. (Ewww!) Together, they saved King David’s lineage from Queen Athaliah’s murderous rampage (see 2 Kings 11; In the Shadow of Jezebel). Who’d have thought Jacob’s daughter, Dinah, was a ...

In Feast or Famine Makes the ECPA June 2023 Bestseller List!

Though some might think I’ve won many awards or graced several bestseller lists, that would be incorrect. I’m much more like the tortoise than the hare when it comes to my writing career–steady and faithful, not a quick or shining star. I have to admit…I squealed when my agent notified me today that In Feast or Famine made the ECPA ...
