10 Days til Christmas
I have been thinking about a lot of year-end “stuff” lately. Getting my calendar for 2015 in order. Catching up on bookkeeping so that files will be ready to go to the CPA come January. Trying (and failing) to tidy my office.
Mostly I’m wondering how we have reached 15 years into this “new” millennium already. Wasn’t it just yesterday that the calendar turning over to 2000 was such a big deal? Were banks going to fail? Were we going to be without food and water? Seems kind of quaint now. After...

The Love of Story
Jerry and I returned about an hour ago (at the time I wrote this post) from seeing the movie, Interstellar. Over the last month, I’ve had several friends rave about the movie, but somehow, other than knowing it was a movie about the earth in trouble and some people going into space to find another place for mankind to live, I managed to stay ignorant of any details.
What a movie experience. Truly. I loved Gravity last year, but I loved Interstellar even more. Far more. Over an hour later, I st...

Christian Fiction Wednesday – Final Feature
Hello, friends. I have decided to retire the Christian Fiction Wednesday feature. I have begun doing more and more book giveaways, also featuring Christian fiction, but the Books Authors Read and Authors Who Inspire blog posts aren’t nearly as time consuming as obtaining the information for the CFW posts has been. Be assured that I will continue to share about great books. It just won’t be in bunches or on a specific day.

November Wrap Up
I spent the afternoon of the last day of November getting up Christmas decorations. So as I prepare this post, lights are twinkling on the tree and on the fireplace mantel. And Sunday night I popped my first Christmas movie of the season into the DVD player. So yes, I am looking forward to December, but first it is time from my monthly look back at the previous month.

Giving Thanks on Thanksgiving
It’s early on Thanksgiving Day. The temperature outside hovers around 40° F, but here in my office, heat is blowing through the vent. I hold (when not typing) a mug filled with coffee and a dollop of Italian Sweet Cream, and I enjoy each sip. It is an unhurried holiday. Our dinner isn’t until later in the day as some family members have to work today so I can sit here, relaxed, and reflect on the blessings in my life.
Today is the 39th Thanksgiving I have celebrated as a follower of Christ and...

Reflecting God’s Character in Creativity
“Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created.”
— Revelation 4:11 (NASB95)

About a decade ago, I participated in a theology study with a group of novelists. We used Wayne Grudem’s Bible Doctrine. The quote below is from Grudem’s more comprehensive study, Systematic Theology, on the subject Creation (Chapter 15, Section C. God Created the Univers...
