Living the Word: June 2010

Wednesday, June 16, 2010. Gina grew up believing her father loved her, but his withdrawn and gruff nature made it such that she reassured herself of that love more often than he did. The kind of dad who was often in a bad mood after coming home from work, what he wanted to do most was have dinner and then relax watching TV. Gina knew that he worked hard and was tired at the end of the day, but she needed more from him than she was getting. Their relationship was strained even in its best moments. A few y...

Saturday, February 13, 2010. This is the first draft of a story I'm working on for the church's upcoming newletter. It is likely to change a bit but I wanted to get something out there to prove I'm still Living the Word, or at least using my gift in His service:. The family of five piled into the car and headed for their first stop not knowing what God had in store for them. Shalihia looked out the window and thought of the woman down the hall who watched her children while she worked, and remembered the...

Monday, November 22, 2010. The Face of Giving. Today, on behalf of the Gateway Center, I accepted a $100 donation from Sanaa, a nine year old girl who raised the money herself selling a self-published book about the joy of eating chocolate cake. What a gesture! My challenge to you - go and do likewise, but in scale with your age and earning potential. I assure you, when you do, you'll have a smile on your face too!

Living the Word: August 2010
http://gregoryelang.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 30, 2010. A New Book Review. Over the weekend I found (thanks to Google Alerts! This great review of my second book, and wanted to share:. This isn’t so much a classical book as it is 100 affirmations for fathers to ponder and even for sons to remember. It’s a fresh reminder at a time when the divorce rate is simply out of control and fathers are being marginalized in the lives of their children in the aftermath, often against their will and best efforts. I headed out to the van for the sn...
