Just out: A NEW THING, a small town romance

If you are looking for a sweet, small-town romance with all the southern, cozy feels—A New Thing could be the book for you! A story of second chances and forgiveness, this heartwarming Christian fiction will invite you into the lives of unique characters in the charming town of Worthville, touching on challenges of the empty nest, running a business, complex family relationships, and the possibility of romance. A delightful, encouraging read… perfect, of course, with a glass of sweet tea! —Laura Thomas, award-winning Christian fiction author

Also recently released:

In Search of the Painted Bunting is a poignant and perceptive portrait of a young girl struggling with timeless challenges. Cornelia Taylor is on a quest to find an exotic bird, the Painted Bunting. But, like all quests, her path does not go on a straight line. It branches out in unexpected ways as Cornelia navigates the turbulent 1960s, as well as the turbulence in her family and at school. The discoveries Cornelia makes and the lessons she learns along the way are just as relevant today. This story raises important questions for every reader. What is your Painted Bunting? What is your quest? And how does God speak to you and lead you along the twists and turns of your path? I highly recommend In Search of the Painted Bunting, as it explores the joys and heartbreaks of adolescence. It will inspire you to search for your own elusive Painted Bunting. - Doug Peterson, Author of over 40 VeggieTales books

Backstory, the last chapter, and the answer at last

As Memorial Day approaches, I came on this post and knew I had to share it again. For all of those who have lost loved ones in service to our country, our prayers are with you. Years ago, I sat in a class by a prolific author. She declared, “Back story belongs in the back of the book.” I etched those words in my notebook, and every time I start to give a character’s whole life story in the first chapter, these words sound in my head. But however much we construct our books with the backstory of a character’s motivation in the last chapter, life itself rarely works out that way. But, if writing a novel with my dad as the protagonist, in one circumstance, it’s almost as if a novelist had constructed the plot. My dad, a Korean Conflict air force veteran, was stationed in several places in this country and spent time in England as well. Here while stationed at Chanute Air Force Base, my dad second from left on front row Here with comrades (Dad's in the middle) Of course...

Who we can't out give

I’m reaching back a few years and pulling this piece forward. We’re never able to outgive the Lord, but this experience was especially sweet. Why is it when we single-mindedly set our hearts on giving, we come away feeling as if we’ve only received? I spent a recent weekend in ministry with a group of folks in a town nestled among the Blue Ridge Mountains. Arriving a little nervous and shaky because of the tasks before me, I found God already there. So, mostly what I tried to do was just stay out of His way, so He could do what only He does. I found myself endeared to people I’d only known for hours, because when we are in Christ, we are family. We can share deeply from our hearts because we trust the relationship in Him. When we part, it’s like saying goodbye to those we’ve known for years. But the good news is we will meet again, perhaps not in this world, but someday. Instead of feeling tired, I felt energized. So, I’m back to the economy of things. How is it that i...

Promises and a ramble through the roses

Some of my most viewed posts include those with scripture and photographs. The gardens at the State Botanical Gardens of Georgia are in full bloom right now and the roses especially are incredible. I wish I could take a picture of the scent in that area and share it with you. Along with sharing rose photographs, I also include promises from scripture that have meant much to me over the years. This is in no way a conclusive list, but simply a few from a great many—s ome say there are more than 7,000 promises of various kinds in scripture. Take a moment to ramble with me through the roses as we ponder the wonderful promises of God. Never will I leave you: never will I forsake you. Hebrews 13:5 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28 My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we as...
