Christmas season is almost upon us, which means it's time to start looking at advent materials! My family hasn't done advent calendars since my brothers and I were little, but we transitioned into books. These three books take about ten minutes to read each night and include instructions for lighting the Advent candles, devotions, and … Continue reading Books for Advent
For me, every story idea starts with the characters and their biggest fears or misconceptions. Without these two (in my opinion), there’s no story to be had. The characters are why I care, and that fear/misconception is something that must be dealt with and got rid of. This writer is here to solve the character’s … Continue reading All About Them Characters
Today we’re starting a progressive series on love. This series is going to take us to some places that may surprise you, but it is going to logically follow the flow of a Christian worldview.

We can tell ourselves all the right things, remind ourselves … Continue reading When Singleness Feels Hard

The "pro" and "anti" in this article represent the feminist stance on the subject. Then we will dissect the issues with Scripture. I will not be telling you what to believe, … Continue reading Hot Topics: Feminism Part 2
Ideas, development, and drafting. Seems like that should include the hardest amount of work. And for some, it does. Personally, I find most of the drafting process to be drudgery. I also love editing. Development is creativity and organization. Drafting is pure creativity and discipline. In editing, there is problem solving and decluttering.
