I’m very excited about the three Christmas ebooks I’ve
uploaded to Kindle recently.
The newest is 24 Christmases. This book was 24
years in the making.
In 1985, as I was preparing to order Christmas
cards from a Christian supplier, God told me that He had given me the gift of
writing, and I should use it to bless people at Christmas. That year, I wrote
my first Christmas story. The story of Mary as a dramatic monologue.
Five other monologues—of people who were
involved with that event so long ago—followed. Joseph … the innkeeper … Mary’s
mother … the youngest shepherd … the servant of a wise man.
The next story was a romance. One year I wrote a
modern Christmas fable. Another year, I wrote a short play that was used to
take Christmas to two local malls. Other stories contained different
perspectives, but one focus—the impact that first Christmas has had on mankind
through the ages.
Unfortunately, there were a few scattered years
when I didn’t write a Christmas story. Life interfered with my plans
James and I have friends spread across several
countries around the world. Many of them have contacted me to tell me how much
the stories mean to them. They anxiously await their copy of the Christmas story
and make it part of their family’s celebration. What a blessing that is to me.
I pray these stories will bless you as much as
you have blessed me.
The picture on the cover of this book was taken
in my den a year or two ago.
The other 2 Christmas ebooks are novellas.
Christmas Confusion
Lori Compton, mayor of Mistletoe,
needs ideas for ways to prop up the sagging economy. After having her heart
broken by the former pastor, she doesn’t want to spend time with the new
pastor. Rev. Russell Brown has plenty of ideas, even one that includes his
spending the rest of his life with the beautiful mayor. Will Lori be able to
move beyond her hurts and recognize God’s intentions for the future of the town
– and for her own future?
If you are an Amazon Prime member, you can borrow a copy of 24 Christmases and Christmas Confusion.
The Best Medicine
When Thomas Stanton shows up at
the holiday party of Rose Fletcher’s best friend, his appearance reminds Rose
of the infatuation she felt for him when he worked on her father’s ranch.
Although her heart wants to continue those long ago feelings, her mind reminds
her that he doesn’t share her faith in God. Thomas can’t understand why Rose
seems so standoffish. Will it take God’s intervention to show these two people
just what He has planned all along?
