I have a podcast here that I did with John Kremer, the marketing guru. He invited me to share unusual places to sell books. Take a listen and hit those streets running: goo.gl/WGTF7

I have been invited by an agent to do a proposal for a series of books on hope. That is big news in itself, but it isn’t a done deal. I have to write a proposal that will knock her socks off, and want her to become your agent. I am in the process of putting that together, and it isn’t an easy job. I think there may be a few thousand re-writes to get it the way I think is presentable. Wish me luck, and I will update you on the progress, and the outcome.

As we approach the holidays-it is only 41 days until Christmas-we have thoughts of hope and love.
There are those who feel the opposite during this time. Some feel deep depression, and hopelessness.
How could this happen?
I have one example of a friend who just lost his wife recently, and will face the holidays without his wife for the first time. There are those who have lost their jobs, and can’t see a very bright Christmas coming for their children as far as getting them gifts.
I could go on with other examples, but you get the picture. What can we do to help?
My friend has had many families from the church invite him to come to their homes for Thanksgiving and Christmas. He is prayed for by many prayer warriors.
For those who don’t have a rosy Christmas coming because of a loss of their jobs, you can send gifts to their home without letting them know who did it, and brighten up their look on life.
Think about these things as we approach the holidays. Think, “What would Jesus do to help these people? Think, what can you do to help these people? Then just do it.
Remember:
You are never alone.
You are never forsaken.
You are never unloved.
And above all..never,ever, give up!
