living a life of purpose

Supersize It!

February 27th, 2013|

Have you ever been asked at a fast-food restaurant, “Care to super-size your order?” For only a few cents more, you can have your drink and fries super-sized to the largest available. What a deal! More sugar, fat and salted grease—for a savings.  America in general has enlarged their portions and super-sized plates of […]

34 Hours!

February 13th, 2013|

Last weekend my speaking assignments took me to Lynchburg, Virginia, to speak at Liberty University. Our flight left at noon so we were afforded half a day to work in the office before catching our US Air out of DFW. With nine minutes to spare after going through security, we stood at the gate […]

Winning Goals!

February 4th, 2013|

A new month has begun; the ground hog has emerged from his hole and the Super Bowl championship decided. Did you watch? Some love the game while others love the show. Award winning commercials, food galore and a reason to party is inviting. Cheering from the sidelines, beyond the ticketed seats, include people watching […]

Guess Who I Met: Chet and Janet Moyers

February 1st, 2013|

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.  They love God and His Word, and their faith is core to all they do. Watching their lives have inspired many to follow in their tracks. They genuinely love […]

Weeping the Loss

December 17th, 2012|

Loss of any kind is hard, but when it comes to your elementary child in a needless shooting at their school, it is beyond understanding. The world is in shock over the senseless slaughter of 20 innocent elementary students in Newtown, Connecticut and 6 staff, when a deranged gunman stormed Sandy Hook Elementary School […]

Guess Who I Met: Star Parker!

December 7th, 2012|

I had the joy of having dinner and sharing the green room one night with Star Parker before taping the television show, “Life Today, with James and Betty Robison.” The outside marquee read, “Star Parker” with the second line saying, “Gail McWilliams.” It looked like I was being honored as the valet super-star of the […]

Guess Who I Met: The Madeira Family

November 30th, 2012|

Years ago, Tony and I had our own weekly television show that ran in Central Illinois for seven years. One of our directors was Mark Dreistadt, who also had a daily program. One day we were the guests on his show, and at the end while the credits ran and the microphones were silenced, we continued to […]

Celebrating Zig!

November 29th, 2012|

Life is to be celebrated especially when it comes to my dear friend, Zig Ziglar. Every encounter I have had with this man has impacted my life profoundly. He is a legend, known worldwide, and his life has matched his contagious message. Once sitting over dinner Zig reminded me, “Gail, when you have a […]

Happy Thanksgiving

November 22nd, 2012|

Happy Thanksgiving!

What are you doing reading my blog today? How is your holiday going? Feeling stuffed like your turkey?

I find holidays to be filled with expectations that are rarely met. I once heard it said that an expectation is a premeditated grudge. With any holiday there are too many variables out of our control; […]

Guess Who I Met: Mark Dreistadt and Infinity Concepts

November 9th, 2012|

I love the tapestry of life. It provides brilliant colors and divine designs; however, the interesting thing is when the threads are intertwined and woven back together later in the Master’s piece.  Such is the case with an old friend and television director when we lived in the Midwest.  My husband and I had a weekly […]
