Spiritual warfare

-
A soul's warfare goes moment by moment. You have to live in the Now, doing what is good for you, even the simple things like eating on time, going to bed on time, learning how to communicate . . . and learning that you cannot rescue other people.

There are currently two books in this SOUL'S WARFARE series: THE HOT MARBLE and THE CAVE CHAMBER. These are now published by Winged Publications, and my self-published books are taken off Kindle and Amazon. The newly published books will very soon be available on Amazon and Kindle.

The Hound of Heaven and the Holy Spirit

-
 Francis Thompson wrote a poem titled "The Hound of Heaven," which often illustrates the Holy Spirit's pursuit of a person's soul. And the reason for the pursuit? Love!

Protecting Your Family

-
In Chapter 3 of The Hot Marble, "The Attack," Lewis is ordered to work with the enemy or his family may be hurt. This is a powerful, but horrible motivator. In a more subtle way, the threat exists with a so-called "normal" situation. For instance, a child feels the tension or anxiety of her parents and adjusts her behaviors to "protect" them.
