I don’t suppose it’s easy to match the excitement of having two books published the same week. The first is an anthology of Christian writers chosen for Kingdom Expansion’s book, Stories of Hope. If ever there was a time for encouragement, this is that day and and this is a great way to experience that grace. My story is called “A Teachable Moment,” which is the real-life story of when as a teenager, I learned that the church is not a building, but it is the people who fellowship and serve Christ. My home church burned to the ground, but I discovered through the love of a community, through generosity and sacrifice, through prayer and optimism, that God had not left us at all. He had better plans in store. Now that my life journeys have taken me to at least ten churches, I’ve found that fellowship to be sweet, and learned for sure that one can worship in any setting–even a gym which I now call “church” and find the same sweet fellowship of saints I learned in that teachable moment so long ago.
