When Pastor Gabe asks
Audrey Gilbraith to use her mad florist skills to help him design a prayer
garden, she’s all in, especially since it helps take her mind off the fact
she’s about to lose her job and her apartment. But working closely with Gabe
and not falling for him is complicated. She’s not pastor’s wife material, and
she has the past to prove it.

Gabriel Brookson wants out
of Audrey’s friend-zone, but when he pursues her romantically, he ruffles more
than a few feathers in his congregation. How much is he willing to give up for
this wonderful, quirky woman, and will Audrey accept him if he risks it all?

Creating an Atmosphere of Faith

Can you create an atmospher of faith? I’m talking about that today on Thoughts On Plot. You don’t have to be a writer to create this kind of atmosphere. 

When we constantly tell ourselves we can’t do something, when we let every negative word said about us rule our thoughts, we’ll never succeed. We may never even try. 

Maybe you’re about to throw in the towel today. Maybe you’ve given up on a dream because someone (or so many) has told you it can never be done–at least not by you. Maybe you’re in a state of paralyzing fear and can’t move forward, even a baby step. 

It’s time to create an atmosphere of faith. 

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13 NKJV


“Watch, stand fast in the faith,be brave, be strong.” 1 Corinthians 16:13 NKJV


Now, come by Thoughts On Plot and see what creating an atmosphere faith can look like.

If You Died Tonight…

“We don’t have forever. 
If you died tonight where would you be? Where would your soul spend eternity?”

Have a great weekend!
What will you do to make it meaningful?

I Can’t Get Enough Big Daddy!

Big Daddy Weave is one of my favorite bands. Besides the fact his voice is beautiful, their message through song is powerful and moving. I love feel good tunes for sure and some ballads move me. But Big Daddy always raises chill bumps on my skin. I feel their faith through the music and the lyrics. 

Seems I always find one or two songs in every manuscript I write that Big Daddy helps me bring to life. One day, I shall put them in the acknowledgment section of a novel, or all. ha!

I shared their song Redeemed on July 4th but I’ve been listening to this song on repeat for a while. I love the message even if it’s one of their older songs. Their new album is amazing! Check it out on Spotify and iTunes!
