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.

Five Rules About Writing I (Sorta) Disagree With
The late novelist Somerset Maugham famously said: “There are three rules for writing a novel. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.” And yet the pundits (including me, sometimes) continually offer up the “rules” to good writing. Some of these rules are valid–such as “show, don’t tell;” though even that rule is flexible. Telling is […]
A Few Words to Encourage You
In my previous blog, I tried my best to discourage you as a writer. If I succeeded, you’re probably not reading this.

As I did […]
A Few Words to Discourage You…
It’s a slow day in Bloggerville. That is to say I’ve had a hard time deciding what to blog about. I finally decided to get in the holiday mood by discouraging a few writers if I can. Of course, the secret is that if what I say discourages you to the point of giving up […]
The Importance Of Piddling
I’m an admitted piddler. I’m also very good at it (due to much practice). I suppose every writing session of mine includes a certain amount of piddling. I think every writer should be, to some degree, a good piddler. The challenge is to not over-piddle and thus waste time that could be spent writing. I’m […]
Time to Plan for 2014!
I had a good laugh with this. I wrote it, posted it, and then discovered I’d blogged on this same topic in October. Ditzy! Oh well. After removing it, I decided to repost it. Maybe someone needs to hear it twice. Here ’tis… It’s December. You know what that means, writers. Before the Christmas rush […]
Into the Toolbox It Goes
Do you ever get confused by the sometimes contradictory advice you hear from successful writers? Some may say “write every day!” while others say “write when you have something to say!” Or you may hear “Write the whole thing before you edit. Just get it on paper.” Then you’ll read about a bestselling author who […]
