It is rare you ever catch me in bed early. However, last week, I hit a wall. So, on Friday night I was dressed for bed by 5:00p.m after weeks of non-stop meetings, activities and a very busy convention I had attended. Though too tired to even sleep, and feeling weepy, I decided to […]

In March of 2010 we took our youngest children, Lydia and Connor, with us to Europe. I spoke fifteen times in eighteen days in the nation of Spain. After a grueling schedule and long days, we ended our Europe trip by spending three days in Rome. Though I write on Fridays who I have […]

There are a couple whom I have known all my life—literally…my parents! Chet and Janet Moyers are one of the most hospitable, friendly, authentic, loving people I have ever known.

Did your candidate win? SO… the election is over and we are supposed to be moving forward? Where exactly?
No matter your vote this past Tuesday, our nation is divided. Like a battery with opposite contributions of negative and positive charges, this feels less than a strong current energizing us for tomorrow’s hope. Unanswered questions, […]

When I think of “Turn Your Heart Toward Home”, there is only one couple that comes to mind—Steve and Annie Chapman. They are incredible people who live what they sing.
Focus on the Family used that particular song as their theme song for many presentations that Dr. James Dobson gave. Steve and Annie are symbols of […]

Have you ever been in a church service when the Preacher asks all to bow their heads while asking for a show of hands given at the invitation of his sermon? I usually have to fight back a smile on my bowed face. The smile has nothing to do with the invitation but rather […]

One spring, when we lived in Central Illinois, I was passing through our family room and the television was on with no one in the room. I had a stack of towels in my arm from the laundry room and I was headed to put them away. Irritated that the television was on aimlessly, […]

During one of my speaking engagements, my flight arrangements required me to do a connecting flight in the Carolinas. It was an extremely busy airport and there was not much time to make the plane. Seeing that I had a visual impairment, the stewardess suggested we get assistance to the gate for our next […]
