“Halfway to 100”

The Second Half Begins

I've always loved to write. As I celebrate reaching halfway to 100 today, God is on the verge of granting me one of the desires of my heart. 

To mark the occasion, this is the painted canvas for my soon-to-be-published book on Amazon. Choose: Fulfill Your Created Purpose is for high school graduates (paperback and Kindle).

A nautical theme flows throughout this 100-page book to honor my childhood in Charleston on the South Carolina coast.

Choose is the book I wish I'd read before I went to college 200 miles from home. I’m releasing it this fall hoping to reach some college freshmen, but especially high school seniors. Perhaps it will spark dialogue with their parents this year while they’re still under the family’s roof.

“Direct or Indirect?”

Caught in the Middle

Which door would you use?

Luke 7:36-50 says Simon the Pharisee was appalled when a sinful woman crashed his party. She dared to anoint Jesus’ feet with her tears and caress his feet with ointment.

While Jesus and the others dined, he was sandwiched with the need for truth.

At his head, veins pulsed in Simon’s crimson neck.

At his feet, tears rained from a woman with a midnight past.

His host and his follower each needed the truth. But, Jesus couldn’t use the same approach for both. He needed two doors.
