With What Are You Filling Your Moat?
I happened across an article the other day about Google’s business strategy. Uh, yeah. Not exactly light reading, and not the kind of article I normally spend time surfing around the Internet for. What attracted me to the article was the castle. I love castles, and this one caught my eye. When I clicked over, I realized that the article …
Am I Too Familiar with God?
I’m reading Charles Stanley’s book, Listening to God, on my Kindle. In the section I read this morning he outlines the aspects of active listening to God – things like listening carefully, submissively, attentively, and today’s characteristic, listening reverently.

Is Creation True?
I got into a conversation the other day that left me feeling unsatisfied. The discussion was on a different topic entirely, but eventually worked its way around to the Bible.

Success in Plotting!
I’m in Branson, Missouri this weekend with my writing partner, Lori Copeland, to develop the plot of our sixth co-authored novel, Rainy Day Dreams, book 2 in the Seattle Brides series.

And the Winner Is…
The contest is over, and we have a winner. The choice was tough, though. We read so many wonderful descriptions of men who epitomize the idea of a cowboy – fathers, friends, uncles, grandfathers, and even sons. The publicist who coordinated the contest suggested that everyone get a book! Unfortunately that wasn’t possible, so we had to pick one winner. …
