Her story is about her strengths and how they rose out of ... more

Loss and grief have immeasurable power to draw us into darkness or deliver us into a higher purpose. For those who follow Christ, loss will, ideally, point us back to the Cross and its redemptive e... more

Remember Whose Little Girl You Are

by Ellen Nichols

Remember Whose Little Girl You Are captures the flavor of the Deep South like no author since Eudora Welty or Flannery O’Connor. Ellen Nichols encapsulates the tenor of small-town Southern life in the fifties and sixties, with its vicissitudes and hilarity. One is captured with her openness and drawn deeply into the dialogue-so much as to, according to one reader, sometimes feel guilty of spying. Read it and see if you want those times back- or are just relieved they’re gone.

I Am Jess

by Jessica Fahl

I kept all of our secrets, avoiding people and situations where I might have to explain his behavior; I just didn’t realize I had done it.

They could be washed away as if he didn’t really mean it that way or that I was reading too much into things, as he often told me. I Am Jess is my story about fal... more
