You are being manipulated. Here’s how.
Let’s get something straight right up front. I love technology. Not only for how easy it makes my life, but mainly for how it can be used to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The best time of day to write
All my adult life I’ve felt guilty about my circadian rhythm. Add to that the knowledge that my favorite authors rise and shine in the wee hours of the morning to write, and I feel even more guilty for being a Night Owl.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Can you hear me screaming all the way to your house? My computer is broken. Hard drive is kaput. No, I didn’t lose data. I have it backed up on Carbonite. (Thank You, Lord!) I’ve learned that lesson the hard way. I’m very hard on computers. They rarely last me more than four years. And like clockwork, they blow up. …
Writer Wednesday with Award-Winning Author, Bob Hostetler
I met Bob Hostetler at a recent ACFW-Indiana meeting. I had no idea how much I admired his work until I saw his book table. And there it was. A book that had a huge influence on my life as a youth minister and teen Sunday School teacher: I raised my kids and a whole passel of other kids on …
