Walk in freedom and passion for life
COVID-19 may sneak up and claim my life. It’s possible – though not likely. I don’t take this illness lightly. Despite a good immune system, I self-isolated almost two weeks ago, spending the majority of time at home. As a diabetic, I don’t want to risk my health. Fortunately, I work from home anyway. So […]
After many years, starts and stops, I am finally almost finished. By this time tomorrow, if all goes as planned, Homeless Hearts will be available for purchase. I’m thrilled to be almost finished with this project and excited about seeing what comes next. Most of all, I’m excited to share the things God gave me […]
On Thanksgiving Prep Day I like to call today Thanksgiving prep day. Tomorrow is the actual holiday, but as I prepare for tomorrow with baking, cleaning – all that stuff we women tend to do, I am thankful. Thanksgiving should never be one day a year though. In reality, thanksgiving comes from a heart attitude. […]
Homeless Hearts – Coming Soon For many years I worked on this book, Homeless Hearts. I’m still working–editing and rewriting. This isn’t a book about physical homelessness, but about the heart condition that keeps people on the street long-term and, ironically, the same conditions that keep the rest of us living with a homeless heart […]

Oh how we love playing the Blame Game. It all started in the Garden of Eden. Fortunately, one king resisted the urge and took responsibility for his mistakes. King David made some extremely bad choices—not being where he should have been, adultery, cover-up and even conspiracy to commit murder. And he pretty much got away […]
I plan to post something more personal later this week. But I’m excited about the #Perfect Love Conference this weekend. This event is primarily intended to raise awareness about human trafficking, learning what we can do to help and challenging us to take action. I can’t help but believe the Lord is up to more. […]
We call it procrastination, a nasty habit often ending in defeat. Did you ever notice how a day becomes a week? Then the week turns into months. Before long, several months pass and those things you meant to do never get finished. I’m guilty.But maybe—just maybe—this thing of procrastination goes much deeper than putting things […]
“We will never end homelessness until we deal with issues of the heart.” Excerpts from Chapter 1 Lori’s words rang through my mind and stuck there as an unforgettable memory I’d rather forget. I looked into the faces and eyes of people at the shelter. Some smiled and seemed rather joyful while others oozed pain […]
