After six busy months, I just uploaded the latest installment off my series, The Healing Hut. Come along on this journey as this novice attempts to build stone cottage from scratch as part of my battle against blood cancer (posted below). Please also see my apology below the video. I apologize that my last post…

Disharmony has been one of the greatest plights in human existence. We hear it now in America: “Divisions and hatred are tearing America apart.” But what is the root of divisions, and what is the cure? How does the Christian really find and promote peace?

On Writing I have completed four queries for my new novel, The Agony of a Woman, and sent them to agents. I am working hard to complete the stonework on the cottage before winter’s cold rains arrive. But it is time to pause, catch my breath, and write. I want to write a conclusion to…

In the six years that I’ve been battling cancer, the first three years, the cancer was out of control, having failed four toxic chemotherapies and a stem cell transplant. Then I went on a program of a monoclonal antibody and a toxic oral chemotherapy, and within two weeks, the blood tests showed no evidence of…

Loose ends before I leave this topic. While the process of evolution, both in life in general and human life specifically, has overwhelming evidence, the general theory of evolution is not perfect. And, as I said before, as a Christian, it would make my life more straightforward if the evidence pointed to a six-thousand-year-old earth…

So, here is the dilemma. The Christian Bible has language, if taken literally, that can be interpreted to describe a world where humans were created as fully human just six thousand years ago (Young Earth Creationist=YEC). There is also a rational understanding of Christian theology that requires humans to sin before any death can occur…
