Bring Her Home is inspired by Jesus’ parable of the Prodigal Son (found in Luke 15:11-32) and while it’s mostly Evangeline’s story (ie, ‘the prodigal’), it’s also very much the story of a father’s grace and incredible love. Growing up in a Christian family where my second home was our church, I’ve heard the Prodigal… Continue reading Crown of Promise Devotions – Grace and the Prodigal
Like Eva in Bring Her Home, I want people to think I have it all together. That I’m strong, and confident, and unshakeable every hour of every day, no matter what life throws at me. Part of that comes from fear that they’d walk away if they knew the truth, part comes from pride and… Continue reading Crown of Promise Devotions – The Stained-Glass Window
In Bring Her Home, both Eva and Darrek have a moment where they have to make the choice whether or not to surrender. I won't tell you whether they do or not, because, for both of them, that moment is a huge part of their story, but writing it made me think a lot about… Continue reading Crown of Promise Devotions – That Surrender Moment
There are butterflies on the cover of Bring Her Home, butterflies on each of the chapter headings, and butterflies on the scene dividers. In short, they're hard to miss. There's a good reason for that. Butterflies are my symbol of hope. When I was a teen, my bedroom wall was full of notes and Bible… Continue reading Crown of Promise Devotions – Butterflies and Hope

In this second instalment, I'm interviewing ... myself! Ha! Well, actually, the questions have come from a number of readers at different times, so maybe it's you interviewing me? Either… Continue reading Behind the Book Interviews: Hannah Currie – Author
As you can probably imagine, writing books is a pretty solitary task. The publishing of books, however, definitely isn't. There are so many people behind the scenes turning the words I write into the books you hold, from editors to proofreaders to cover designers and the publishers themselves (among others!). If you've read the Acknowledgements… Continue reading Behind the Book Interviews: Janelle Leonard – Managing Editor
A Look Inside the Mind of a Writer Or, at least, this writer 🙂 I can't vouch for any others. Just for fun, I thought I'd share some of what goes on in my head during the writing of a first draft*. As you'll very quickly see, I have a bit of a love/hate relationship… Continue reading Behind the Scenes of a First Draft
A life-long Christian who's afraid to pray? I know, ridiculous. It makes no sense, especially when many days, I pray like I breathe - without thinking, for the most part. My husband joked once that I'd pray if an ant crawled over my foot. I laughed, thinking that was just a little bit ridiculous. Until… Continue reading Sometimes I’m Scared to Pray
It's that time of the year again, when I go through all the (100+) books I've read this year and pick my top twenty favorites. Here are the lists for 2020 and 2019 if you missed them. Every year, I've struggled to pick just twenty. What can I say? I read a LOT of amazing books. (Also, I'm pretty… Continue reading Top 20 Favorite Reads of 2021
