I hope you’re enjoying watching the readings more than I am taping them LOL! I could never be an actress, which is pretty obvious when you see one of these segments. But I’m hoping to get better at this. It is fun to share my characters with y’all, though. Background music is complements of Bensound.

Video Reading: Segment Two
Hey Friends, Just want you to know that publishing these videos is really pushing myself out of my comfort zone! I don’t enjoy having my picture taken, so a video (which I have no idea how to make pretty) is a stretch. And although the process is a little painful, I’m sure I’ll be blessed in the end.

Is There a Real Struggle Within You?
A few days ago I purchased a new book to read during part of my morning quiet time. It was recommended by a fellow Celebrate Lit Blogging Team member, and the title really spoke to me: The Struggle is Real: Getting better at life, stronger in faith, and free from the stuff keeping you stuck. I was so tired of …
Nostalgia
Recently, as I was writing an updated About Me post for my website, I started thinking about the first chapter book I could remember reading (you’d have to read the post to understand the connection.)

In the Midst of Angelic Conflict
I write this blog post today with a heavy heart. From personal past experience, I have seen that when we allow the enemy a foothold into our heart, mind and/or home, the results are devastating. I’m reminded of this after a tragedy occurred in Amador County late Monday night. I’m not going to address the details, assign blame or judgment. …

Summer is waning, but fall isn’t quite here yet, as much as many wish it were. I heard on KLOVE just yesterday that Starbucks has already brought in their pumpkin spice latte—traditionally the specialty drink that heralds in the holidays. And it’s only August! Anyone besides me sick of the big push to commercialize the holiday season? Since I completed …
