Life Recovery is not just a way of life; it's the path to the richest life possible. We are all fellow strugglers together as we battle addictions, dependencies, anxieties, depression, or difficult relationships that need healing. Each one of us faces our own unique battle.
God's vision for your life is far more profound than you can ever imagine. Spending as little as one minute a day praying, meditating, and being in God's presence can recapture that vision and equip you to live into it. The One Year Life Recovery Prayer Devotional is a resource that can help you do that. By spending time each day with the living God, you can grow in biblical wisdom and spiritual depth in order to overcome what seeks to control you.
Be free from what imprisons you. Each day, this devotional will prompt you to look to God for strength when you are weak―for hope when everything appears hopeless.

Reasons for Rejection
I thought about making this blog entry about my time at Mount Hermon this past week. But there was just so much, I don’t know where to begin. Parts of that experience will no doubt surface in upcoming blogs. Suffice to say you need to be there next year or at some other conference later […]
Off to Mount Hermon!
April 12, 2011 Tomorrow I’m going to Mount Hermon. I go one day early just to be alone and enjoy the surroundings. This year, though, I’m also taking a writing project with me that has an April 30 deadline. From the results of my last blog, it’s obvious what most of you are interested in. […]
Seven Reasons the Committee Says No
Yesterday I asked for blogging suggestions and there were a number of good responses. In fact, I’ll answer several over the course of the next few blogs. The one I’m picking today is Michael Reynolds’ question: ”What are the top five reasons books get shut down in pub committee?” First, for those just learning the […]
Some of my favorite rejections
I have a new blog percolating in my mind, but it’s not ready yet. So, until then, I want to offer a few of my favorite famous rejections (taken from Rotten Rejections by Andre Bernard). Make sure these don’t happen to you! * In 1962 Mary Higgins Clark received the following rejection for her novel […]
