The Rearview Mirror

1406) One of my unhealthy tendencies is to spend too much time in the past. Do I think there is much to be discovered and learned from things gone by? Of course, but when it crosses the line is when this focus is not helpful. One such example is when I beat myself up for

Royalty

1405) When I was in Gibraltar in the summer of 1981, we had a wonderful experience. We got to see the newlyweds, Prince Charles (now, King Charles) and Princess Diana because they stopped there on their honeymoon. It was an exciting event, and the city embraced it with a celebration. It is something I vividly

The Cave

1404) My favorite author, Jan Karon, has a scene in her book, These High, Green Hills that comes to mind when I read John 8:12. In her book, Father Tim and his wife, Cynthia, get lost in a cave. As the scene unfolds, it’s apparent the darkness overwhelms them. It reminded me of the time

Handling Biblical Parables with Integrity

Everyone loves a good story and, as a writer, I use them to help my readers understand the points I’m trying to make. Jesus, too, used parables to illustrate the main points he was making and he did it so successfully, these stories are well-known today, even by people who are not biblically literate. The Good

When the Rug is Pulled Out From Under Your Feet

Life seems to follow cycles similar to our seasons. We have summer. A time when life is steady–no real difficulties. There’s fall, when we have circumstances that hint to us that more difficult things are on the way. Winter is the time when life punches us in the stomach and recovery seems beyond our reach,

Tradition!

1403) Musicals are not really my thing, but I can sing along with almost all the songs in Fiddler on the Roof. The title of this minute gives away which song I want to focus on, Tradition! Traditions are a good thing. They help us remember what people value, and have the power to bring

Where the Credit Belongs

1402) When I was in junior high and high school, I was on the softball team. I was good at the sport, and as the pitcher, my team depended on me. There were games where I made the difference in winning or losing. I was also a good batter. I remember one game, when the

Why Christians Fail in their Faith

I was reading an article recently about inertia. I know I had some knowledge about it buried way back in my mind, but what I read spurred me on to rediscover it. Newton’s First Law of Motion (inertia) tells us that an object at rest or in motion will continue in the same state unless

The Business Model

1401) Because my publisher gives me the responsibility of marketing my books (go to susan-grant.com to see and purchase these), I have enrolled in some marketing courses. These have solidified several things for me and one of them is businesses need one person who is ultimately in control. There may be many others who oversee

Context is King

If you are a competent journalist, you know news stories carry more weight if you feature quotes from those involved. What someone said is often what the article focuses on and this gives credibility to your report, sometimes. When including quotes, it’s easy to take them out of context, essentially making the quotes fit whatever
