A Woman of Faith
Author’s Note: Sorry it has been a while since I’ve blogged about anything. I got a bit “written out” after doing a bunch of freelance writing this winter and the […]
Jesus Took the Bullet For Me

Theology is important but it must be complete — spiritual AND physical. I love how St. James (half- or step-brother of Jesus) addresses this issue in his letter: “If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacks daily food, and one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace, keep warm and eat well,’ but you do not give them what the body needs, what good is it?”

Behold, It’s Advent Eve!
Today’s Bible verse takes us back to the true meaning of Christmas. Christmas is about the incarnation of Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God. To focus our attention on Jesus this month, there is always the Advent wreath, a tremendous Church tradition that goes back hundreds of years and celebrates the arrival of Christ on Christmas Day. Over the past week I have compiled and edited and written four weeks of devotionals celebrating various aspects of Jesus’ coming to earth — God with us. The compilation is my first attempt at an eBook, a digital book that you can download in PDF form and use on your iPad, iPhone, Tablet, or home computer. You could even print it out at home.
