Today is the Day!
In 1965 you may have been raising your children, or you may have just been a twinkle in your daddy’s eye. Me? I was in second grade. Civil Rights was in full swing, but I simply enjoyed playing on the swing set – oblivious to the chaos swirling through Alabama. Until … that day on […]
Have You Found Your Voice?
I don’t have to read too many paragraphs to know when it’s one of my favorite authors doing the writing. When dipping into the word well, each hoists their own unique blend of word choice, style, and rhythm. Their writing becomes much like their fingerprint or signature – unique. Each has taken time to practice […]
Bob Dylan?
Back in our college days, my husband was a big Bob Dylan fan. If you’re old enough (or just a Dylan fan) you may remember a song I used to hear in our first little mobile home just off campus. I couldn’t help but hear it echo in my head as I started to write […]

Praise Be!
“For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.” (Ephesians 2:18, NIV) To have an effective conversation, both parties need to be willing to take turns listening and talking. Some of us are better listeners and some are better talkers, but if we are going to effectively communicate we’d better […]
The Power of One
A phenomenon takes place at sporting events that baffles me. How can just one in a throng of 80,000 fans incite the multitude to systematically rise from their seats, throw their hands in the air and make noise like over-caffeinated owls? It happens in scoreless games, as well as lopsided ones. Whenever the crowd loses […]
