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.

I’ll be editing it next month and I’m looking forward to it very much. In a recent e-mail BJ said this about a future project we’re discussing: “Before anything […]
The Tingle
One of the most interesting aspects of the creative life as it pertains to writing books is something beyond craft itself. Let me see if I can explain it. A few weeks ago we asked Harvest House author Mindy Starns Clark how she was coming on her Titanic novel (Echoes of Titanic) and she replied […]
Will sad endings work in our market?
In case you missed it or in case you’re not a Facebook friend of mine, I recently entertained this question: Can a novel for the Christian market be successful if it has a sad ending? Why or why not? Can you think of some examples? The response on Facebook was great. I had 47 comments. […]
The Problem of Overwriting
Happy New Year all. I trust your prayerful writing plans for 2012—including attendance at at least one writer’s conference—are in high gear. If so, good! Keep them that way. For the first blog of the new year I’m going to start out with a complaint from Yvette, a Facebook friend of mine. Yvette is a […]
