Write Where It Hurts
God has used writing in my life in a powerful way. As a word-lover, an author, I’ve learned this, how sometimes we write for publication, yes, but how sometimes we write simply to reconcile. To uncover truths and connect dots in ways that sometimes aren’t possible until we sit quiet with the pressing questions.
Today, I’m passionate about writing as a healing tool. You’ll find Write Where It Hurts a connection point, an invitation to women and conversations that bring healing. We need that, don’t we? A place where can we can drop all the masks and cut through the hard stuff.
Come join us. In our online community here, you’ll find hope, encouragement, and practical tools along with a challenge to live intentionally. Pull up a chair. Grab a spot of tea, or your favorite java. Be encouraged and inspired as you connect with other brave-hearted women who have faced unfathomable trials with courage. Risk the writing challenges, and be rewarded with a fresh perspective of your own.

Not just people who are nice, or people I know, or even people I know well. I […]

Marie
Guest Post by Cindie Thomas Two years ago my Pastor asked me to attend a luncheon a local church was hosting for a Crisis Pregnancy Center. I readily agreed to go, as I wanted to hear the center’s director speak. The pro-life movement had tugged on my heart for a long time. Maybe this would […]
Miracles
Guest Post by Shea Clarke Prom is a big milestone in any girl’s life. For some, it leaps past milestone and lands at miracle. This past weekend my daughter went to her first prom. We spent weeks in preparation for last Saturday night’s event. Her date attends a gifted/talented boarding prep school 2½ hours away, […]

Broken
Guest Post by Aubrey Washer Last summer as I wandered through the back yard to check for roof damage from the previous night’s windstorm I noticed that two of my sunflowers had been bent and the stems were broken in places. Sunflowers are about the only thing besides weeds that will grow in my yard. […]

Responding To Life’s Hurts
