Review: "Finished Already!"

"I finished your book already and it was really good. I liked the [ending]. That was a really good part.  I also like the part...when the Edwards family goes shopping with Mr. Simmons.  That was fun."

~Sydney (11)

Speaking this Saturday

"The Heavens Declare" and "Light of the World" will be traveling with me to a ladies' brunch in Dayton, OR this Saturday.  I will be sharing my testimony and meaningful excerpts from "The Heavens Declare."  Both books will be for sale.

The Biblical Apprentice Class

Saturday, May 7th, I attended and spoke at the Nehemiah Project's First Annual Biblical Apprentice class for youth in Portland, Oregon.  All together, there were 29 students (from private Christian schools and home schools) between the ages of 11 and 18.  Both "The Heavens Declare" and "Light of the World" were for sale at the event.  I spoke at the end of the lunch time, sharing testimony about my experiences writing and publishing.  To make my testimony more memorable and encouraging, I made a PowerPoint presentation with my four points.  (Notice they form the acronym "IDEA.")

 

I have learned to…

- Identify calling

- Develop skills

- Earnestly seek counsel

- Always stay focused

 

I was able to both give and take, because not only did I have opportunity to share my story, but the Biblical entrepreneurship training was invaluable.  Being guided in actually formulating a business plan from scratch was terrific, and the vision for a particularly Christian approach was clearly and motivationally cast by both Mr. Tsague and Mr. Madore.

Family Interaction

Excerpt from Chapter Five: “A Shopping Trip”

Brian pointed to the piece of tomato on his plate. “We learned why this looks red.” He paused. “And why your shirt, Andy, looks blue.”
Collin tugged on his own green and white striped shirt saying, “Mine shirt, mine shirt.”
“Yes,” said Danielle, “your shirt too, Collin. We read about why each green stripe looks green and each white stripe looks white.”
“Did you learn why Dad’s hair is black?” asked Andy.
“Oh yes,” Brian said, nodding confidently.
“Why?”
“Because God made him that way.”


Sound fun? Throughout “Light of the World,” God’s creation and His word are part of the Edwards family’s daily interaction. “And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise… You shall write them on the doorposts of your house…” (Deut. 6:6-7, 9a, ESV) Talking about important things as a family doesn’t have to be fancy. Just look at the Edwards family: it can take place “when you walk by the way”!
For more encouraging pictures of family life, read “Light of the World” the new living science book about light.
