Today, on Good Friday 2018, Christians around the globe are commemorating the passion of Jesus Christ—the suffering He went through to pay our sin debt in full with His blood and to give us new life in Him. Good Friday isn’t a national holiday in the U.S., but it is a state holiday in Connecticut, […]
Holy but Hoodwinked
That Time Those Dogs Ganged up on My Beagle
So, this past Monday, March 12, 2018, National Napping Day was celebrated in the United States. This was the day after most of us reluctantly moved our clocks forward one hour. I hadn’t heard of this national day, but since I was feeling particularly sleep-deprived that morning, I decided to join the celebration. And I did that […]
This Hashtag Got Me Thinking
Lately, I’ve been spending an awful lot of time on social media. Between sharing the Good News (my #1 passion) and getting the word out about my Good-News-packed book, His Banner Over Me Is Pursuing Love, I’ve spent little time doing anything else. I never in a million years would have thought that I would […]
If We’re Doing This, We’re Not Loving
We Christians might as well admit it. We all do this. We really don’t want to do this. But somehow it seems to come so natural to us. Yes, people who aren’t Christians do this, too. But the target audience for my blog are Christians who want to enjoy greater intimacy with Christ through understanding […]
You Are Invited to My 1-Year Blogiversary Celebration!
Have you ever been so excited about something, you thought you would burst if you didn’t share your news with someone else? You know, like lickety-split? That’s how I felt last year at this time when I was getting ready to launch my blog, A Happy Christian’s Secret Life. I smiled as I revisited my launch day […]
What My Debut Book Has in Common with Fifty Shades
After reading the title of my post, “What My Debut Book Has in Common with Fifty Shades,” you just might need to pick your chin up off the floor. No, I haven’t read any of the books in the Fifty Shades trilogy or seen either of the first two book-based movies. Nor do I have any […]
My Morning Heart-to-Heart with Jesus
Two weeks ago in my post “The Secret to Savoring Christ’s Love” I shared a transforming motion picture that Jesus projected onto the movie screen in my mind while I was journaling—fixing the eyes and ears of my heart on Him in excited anticipation. In this delightful grace reel, my Beloved vividly reminded me who […]
The Serious Business of Enjoying God
In my last post, “Could This Be the Day?” I shared how some Christian prophetic circles were predicting that Christ could rapture His bride, the church, during the Jewish New Year (5778) celebration—also known as Rosh Hashanah 2017. Well, it came and went and Christ’s spotless bride is still here on planet earth. If the […]
Could This Be the Day?
To those of you who might have been looking forward to my post today on practical ways each one of us—as Christ’s bride—can give Him our pure and undivided devotion, I apologize. That post will be postponed until next week. That is, if I’m here on planet earth to write it. If you are a Christian […]
Undivided Devotion to Christ
In a recent blog post titled “How to Tune Into God’s Live Love Stream,” I shared a Scripture that clarifies for Christians how they can hear God’s voice and experience His love in tangible ways. A Scripture that answers the question, What is Father God’s heart’s desire for those who are in His Son? This […]
