“So the Lord himself will give you this sign: A virgin will become pregnant and give birth to a son, and she will name him Immanuel [God Is With Us].” Isaiah 7:14 “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light…” Isaiah 9:2 “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will …
Natalie Walters’ Lights Out–Reader Friday
Natalie Walters’ Lights Out is this week’s Reader Friday. Here’s the first line: “Seif El-Deeb watched the trio of American boys cross the street away from Cairo American College.” Now for the photo and scripture. The photo is from Unsplash–Akhil Lincoln. I wanted a night photo and could imagine the night in Bethlehem when Christ was born was like the …
Dumbest Criminals Ever
Dumbest Criminals Ever is this week’s Mystery Question. I had a ball researching these stories. My only problem is thinking up one to go with them. As I write this, I haven’t come up with one, but I will. 🙂 But first the scripture verse (the photo is from Pexels-Clifford-Mervil). Luke 2 is one of my favorite chapters in the …
Sherri Johnson’s Desolate Escape–Reader Friday
Sherri Wilson Johnson’s Desolate Escape is this week’s Reader Friday selection. I really enjoyed this romantic suspense story set at Bon Secour Beach in Alabama. But first, the photo and scripture. I almost titled the photo taken by my friend Deb Smith a Winter’s Sunset, but winter isn’t here yet…that’s not for another eleven days. 🙂 I think she captured …
Unbelievable Blotter Reports
Unbelievable Blotter Reports is this week’s Mystery Question. I thought about looking up more stupid crimes, but then I read my local paper’s police report and some of them were too good to pass up. 😉 But first this week’s photo. It was the third shot I got of the rainbow as I rode down the highway on September 24th. …
Labyrinth of Lies – Reader Friday
Labyrinth of Lies by Irene Hannon is this week’s Reader Friday post. Oh, my goodness! This book kept me up reading until 1:30 earlier this week…not once, but twice. More on that later. But first the photo and scripture. I couldn’t resist one more fall photo of the beautiful trees around here. This one was taken at Corinth’s oldest cemetery–City …
Back to Crazy Crimes
Back to Crazy Crimes is this week’s Mystery Question, mainly because I was finding the scams too depressing! And I’m telling you, making up a crime to match the ones I found wasn’t easy… But first the photo and verse. I stepped outside about two weeks ago late in the afternoon and caught this scene with my new-to-me camera. I …
Happy Thanksgiving 2021!
Happy Thanksgiving 2021! The latest sixteen months have been difficult ones for my family and me, and I’m taking this week to reset and focus on what I’m grateful for. I’ll share a few thoughts I had yesterday as I drove back from a research trip to Chattanooga: My Lord and Savior! My family Sister time this past week–it’d …
Nancy Mehl’s Dead Fall – Reader Friday
Nancy Mehl’s Dead Fall is this week’s book for Reader Friday! This is a suspense book you won’t want to miss! But first, the photo and verse. Can you tell I’m really having fun with the new camera? I had forgotten just how much fun (and hard work) it is to get the perfect photo. Not that I’ve achieved perfection …
Worst Scams in 2021 — Mystery Question
Worst Scams in 2021 is this week’s Mystery Question. I cannot believe how many scam artists there are out there. And a lot of times, the person bites because of the promise of a quick buck. But first this week’s photo and verse. Can you tell I got a new (to me) camera? I thought my iPhone made really good …
