It was a split second decision that saved her, that guided her destiny and led to the moment when she controlled the rise or fall of a nation with the stroke of her sword. Alexa Hollen saw the fire consume her parents and her home. She watched as the sorcerer destroyed life as she knew it. The only thing she had left was her twin brother Marcel and he was urging her to move quickly.
Last Saturday, I held a “dream board workshop” in my home. It was wonderful. There were six of us ladies there, ranging in age from thirteen to fifty something! How great is that?!
In the novel Running Against TrafficWhat do you do when your life takes a big, unexpected and unwelcome turn? A life coach would say “Turn those lemons into lemonade” or “Setbacks are really opportunities in disguise” However, Paige Scott, who grew up living the rich life, married into the rich life and then is dumped by her husband- literally and figuratively-into the “not so rich life by a long shot,” has no use for such optimistic mottoes. In the real world she has hit rock bottom and it’s going to take more than a few positive slogans to help her sort out her life.
Last month I took a one week condensed class on the history of the Old Testament, as part of my schooling at Asbury Theological Seminary. I learned so much and wanted to share what I learned with the whole world and now, today, I have the opportunity to do just that with you!
God Doesn't Love Us All The Same, by Nina Guilbeau
Janine Harris never really thought about homeless people. She barely even notices them as she passes them by on her way to work in downtown Washington D.C. All Janine can focus on is the shambles of her own young life, afraid that she will never be able to get past the painful mistakes she has made. However, all of that changes on a snowy evening in December when Janine unexpectedly finds herself alone with Vera, an old, homeless woman who seems to need her help. Now Janie wants to know what could have possibly happened to Vera to leave her so broken and alone.
As Vera shares her life story with Janine, the two women form an unusual bond and begin a journey that changes both of their lives forever. Reluctantly, they each confront their own past and, in the process, discover the true meaning of sacrifice, family and love. Although to truly move forward in their lives, they must fast the most difficult challenge of all – forgiving themselves.
