Home stirs up a variety of images and memories. In recent blogs, I talked about heaven, our real home. But today, I’m offering a new book giveaway from author Deborah Raney called Home to Chicory Lane. A great start to a new Christian fiction series, Deborah’s new book introduces us to the home of the Whitman family. I love the inviting back cover blurb from Deborah’s new book: WELCOME TO CHICORY INN… WHERE FAMILY IS (ALMOST) ALWAYS WELCOME!
A Picture of Heaven – Home at Last
What happens when we get to heaven? How will we greet Jesus? How will He greet us? Here’s one way I viewed it, a symbolic picture of God’s grace, love, and forgiveness. From time to time, I like to include a poem in my blogs. I hope this one encourages you.
Finding Hope in God’s Faithfulness

Book Giveaway: Mornings with Jesus 2015
It’s time for a Guideposts giveaway: the new devotional book, Mornings with Jesus 2015. This time, I’m featuring Guideposts‘ new devotional book, Mornings with Jesus 2015. Eleven writers helped write this new devotional, and this is the third year I’ve been privileged to join that writing team. Every time I study and learn more about Jesus, and every year I experience more of His love and grace, He grows more precious to me. Here’s an excerpt from one of the devotions I contributed to this book:
When Different Is Good
I’m done. Finished. Last One. That’s what I said the last time. But this time I mean it. Ever uttered those words? If it hadn’t involved our entire neighborhood, I probably wouldn’t have attempted it–again. Digging out, sorting through, putting stuff out, packing it back–or giving it away–the entire scenario of yet another garage sale stirred up dusty arguments that refuse to die.
