With Easter upon us, what a better time to reflect on the life, death, and resurrection of Christ? Can you imagine what it was like for the disciples as they sat around the table visiting with Jesus and their shock when he said one would betray Him and another would deny him? Several years ago, I imagined the disciples sitting around the table laughing, talking, eating, and having an enjoyable evening with Jesus. In my twentieth-century mind, I could see Jesus stand up and tap his spoon against a glass to get everyone’s attention. All heads turned his direction as…

Life is full of busyness. No one has time for themselves. What does it all mean, anyway? Slow down, take a moment… hit the pause button. Chris Maxwell, www.chrismaxwell.me, a friend of mine, has written several pausing books. Why? Because without a pause, we flutter through life being who we think everyone wants us to be or trying to be someone we’re not or because we don’t think we have the time to be still. In Chris’s book, Pause for Moms: Finding Rest in a too Busy World, I wrote a few paragraphs about my treadmill life. Like a hamster…

Welcome, Darlene, and congratulations on your new novel! Here’s Darlene . . . Trusting in God’s Sovereignty Jigsaw puzzles seem to be the rage lately. Do you remember doing them as kids? Placing each piece in its specific spot was fun . . . until you either couldn’t figure out how one fit—or heaven forbid—you lost a piece. Then everything changed. It wasn’t fun anymore. More like frustrating. This got me thinking about life and…

When we look at the world nowadays, life seems out of control. People argue and demean the integrity of others, disregard the value of respect, and disown us if our opinions differ from theirs. With the continuous threat of COVID-19 and the controversies over political issues, protecting the values of home and family may get lost among the chaos. We get caught up in the uncertainties of truth in the news, slander on social media, and an overall disregard for authority. These traits may have been around for years, but maybe I’ve finally reached the age to take notice and…

Despite the virus threats, our family gathered for a fabulous Thanksgiving meal together. Of course, we all chipped in and prepared a dish. As with every holiday gathering, we overate and enjoyed every bite. After clearing the table, all the ladies sat and sorted through the Black Friday sales ads. We cut coupons, make our lists, mapped out our course, and headed home. Five o’clock in the morning would arrive early, but, hey, we’d make the doorbuster sales. By four o’clock I was up, dressed in our matching Christmas T-shirts and matching Christmas face masks, and sipping on my liquid…

In a world full of negativity, it is important to impart hope to others through intriguing stories that invoke positivity. Friendships are vital regardless of your profession, and writing doesn’t change the fact. Everyone needs supportive, kind, and encouraging friends. I recently read Angelia L White’s book Yes Sisters. The cover sums it up. Surrounding Yourself with Women Who Affirm, Encourage, and Challenge You. This goes for men, too, even though the book focuses on women. Angela says, “We need a friend who helps us become our best selves.” Take Yes Sisters a step further. As a writer, you have…
