Traveler says, "Take a poetic journey with me through the highs and lows of life, one verse at a time. Experience my world through the eyes of poetry, as I reminisce on life's unforgettable moments, and on the choices I have made and still make with what I do with my remaining years. The imagination tree is wide, come and sit awhile. You’re so welcome to be here. Would you like some spring tea and shortbread?" This is Traveler's second book of poetry and 75th published work. She has honed her craft to a fine point and her books are read all over the world; she is enjoyed for her wit, ...

There are over 4000 promises and pledges from God to us in the Bible. It’s hard to comprehend so many vows given freely to us, let alone claim them. How did God know so long ago what promises we’d need, billions of people over seven thousand years in all cultures and times, and the promises He made way back in Genesis are still relevant in many ways to what we need now. Living the Promises of God takes just 42 of these promises, enough and a couple to spare for Lent or any other time of spiritual emphasis, and sets them in short daily devotionals to help you claim the promises of God in...

The last hours of Christ on this earth were intense; this book looks at just a few minutes of that time. John the beloved records that while Jesus was in Gethsemane, He had struggled with God, won the battle of self; and as the soldiers and Judas were heading His way, He took time out of the little He had left to turn to God and pray for us, all down through the eons of time, from then until now, and asked God to stay with us, to protect us, to lead us. He commended us to God the Father. When He completed His prayer, the guards came, and the torture of His passion took His attention for the...

The book of James has for centuries caused problems for the church hierarchy. Some felt it took away from the teaching of salvation by faith alone; Martin Luther disliked this little book so much that in his original translation, he took it out of the rest of the New Testament and put it in an appendix in the back! There is controversy about which of the three James in the Bible wrote this letter: whether James was trying to tone down Paul’s message, whether or not it was written only to the Jews and not to the budding church; whether it was too practical to be of any spiritual import as ...
