A collection of short, graceful essays on everyday, down-to-earth topics like serving, loving, trusting, praying, believing, forgiving, and simplifying. The essays were born of the author's desire to know Christ in a more heartfelt way, and to help readers get in touch with His presence in their own lives. There are questions for reflection and discussion at the end of each chapter.
Lorraine V. (for Viscardi) Murray grew up in Miami. She graduated from the University of Florida with graduate degrees in English and philosophy and then taught both subjects in college for many years. In her forties she finally got serious about pursuing her dream of writing and left teaching to become a free-lance writer. Today she is a columnist with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Lorraine lives in Decatur with her husband, and when she is not hunkered down at the computer, she likes to bake bread, watch hummingbirds, and chase squirrels out of the garden.
