I’ve been trying to take a walk every day both for exercise and to focus my heart on The Lord.

It might seem silly, but for me, it’s always a little scary. Joining groups I haven’t been invited to […]

In late September I headed out on an adventure from the mountains of far Northern California to the mountains of East Tennessee for a Christian women’s retreat for writers, podcasters and […]
