He came into this world, no glory, crown, or fame, just a simple little manger, Jesus was his name. No palace marked his birth, no riches or a throne, just a humble servant child, Son of God, flesh and bone. As He grew He learned His purpose. His Father’s business was HisContinue reading “The Sacrifice”

Zoom Out
Zoom out, I would say. Your focus is too narrow. You are zoomed in on this tiny issue, and it seems so big right now. Zoom out, I tell myself. Get a better perspective. See the whole picture, and this will be revealed as the small issue it is. It will seem insignificant once youContinue reading “Zoom Out”

When the Penguin Talks Back
Picture a cute little penguin in a red ball cap, carrying a blue lunch box. This is Petra, a character I created for one of my children’s books. I sent him on an adventure, during which his encounters include an octopus searching for eight shoes, a juggling walrus with only one tusk, and a gigglingContinue reading “When the Penguin Talks Back”
Fill ‘er up, God!
I’m not a coffee drinker. Never have been. My taste buds don’t crave that bean. They prefer the sweeter cocoa variety. With an overarching saccharine inclination, my beverage choices lean toward hot chocolate, sweet tea, fruit juices, and, when I want to get really crazy, Mountain Dew. As tasty as these treats are, at the endContinue reading “Fill ‘er up, God!”
Good Enough? Part 2
(Click here for Part 1.) Hello. My name is Kerry, and I’m a perfectionist. What does this mean? I don’t want to be seen as less than perfect. What’s the bad news? I’m so far from perfect I can’t see it with a telescope. What the good news? Let me rephrase. What’s the great news?Continue reading “Good Enough? Part 2”
Shaped for Social Solitude?
Here’s a conundrum. My passions are writing and relationships. (Combining these, I love to write about relationships.) What’s the challenge? I can easily get too busy writing, researching markets and avenues of publication, and submitting work, to have time for the relationships about which I’m trying to write. Travel too far down this road andContinue reading “Shaped for Social Solitude?”
Did Jesus tell jokes?
Have you seen Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ? If so, the scenes that stand out in your mind are probably those of Jesus beaten, tortured, and crucified. Eleven years after the movie release, I still vividly remember the 39 lashes (although not all of it, because I eventually had to close my eyes.)Continue reading “Did Jesus tell jokes?”

Seven Deadly Sins for Writers: #7 – Greed
Do you agree? Is it true? Is greed good? Spoiler alert! Things don’t turn out great for Mr. Gekko. I doubt Michael Douglas’s character would be a good role model. In fact, another wealthy man, richer even than Gekko, offers a different philosophy: One person gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, butContinue reading “Seven Deadly Sins for Writers: #7 – Greed”
