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.

Mannerisms (again)
This will be the first time I’ve repeated a blog, but I find it necesssary.

Felt Life
So how does a writer put “the secret” into action? Trying to teach a person how to do that is even harder than articulating the secret itself.

The “Secret”
Last week on Facebook I promised to reveal the one great secret to writing success. The reason I’ve delayed is that my website has undergone a facelift. I hope you like the new look and find it easier to read. There are also some new features on the sidebar to the right, including a way […]
One Thousand Gifts
I had hoped to blog again at length before I take off next week with my wife on a nice warm Mexican cruise. It doesn’t look like that will happen, so it will have to wait until I get back. Mostly, I want to blog about the tremendous success of this book. The author has […]
See you Thursday!
Thursday I leave for the first of the several Christian Writer’s Conferences I’ll attend this year. This one will be in Denver and is the Writing for the Soul conference hosted by the Christian Writers Guild. The Christian Writers Guild is an excellent resource for writers as some of you already know. I look forward […]
God’s Vision for the Book
I love quotes. Especially quotes about writing. And I’ve just found one that pertains to writing (or just about any other human endeavor), but comes from a man who found his success in advertising. First, the quote, then a few remarks. “If I have gone higher than others in advertising, or done more, the fact […]
