*Not* Working For God

January 18, 2023February 15, 2022 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

Eugene Peterson writes: "There are times when our grand human plans to do something for God are seen, after a night of prayer, to be a huge human distraction from what God is doing for us." As a Christian author, I can find myself stumbling over this truth time and time and time again. When … Continue reading *Not* Working For God

That Which We Have Already Attained

January 4, 2023February 10, 2022 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

There's a lady at church with whom I have a hard time. And I don't mean in the sense that we don't get along. We do. Very well, in fact. And I don't mean that she has some kind of annoying habit, irritating mannerism, or even overt sin that causes me to be distracted. No, … Continue reading That Which We Have Already Attained

When An Attitude of Gratitude Isn’t Enough

December 14, 2022February 9, 2022 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

It gets harder every year. If you're a parent, you probably understand what I mean. I try so hard to keep the focus on Jesus during this Christmas season. I mean, cue all the cliches, right? He's the reason for the season! You can't spell Christmas without Christ. And all those familiar sayings. We do … Continue reading When An Attitude of Gratitude Isn’t Enough

When Knowledge Becomes Sin

November 30, 2022February 4, 2022 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

A few years ago, I decided one of my goals was to run a half-marathon. I'd been an avid runner for many years but had never gone above a 10k. Then in the summer of 2018, I suffered a knee injury from which my doctor assured me while, yes, I would recover, my running days … Continue reading When Knowledge Becomes Sin

Breaking News From Babylon…

November 9, 2022February 2, 2022 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

I am a recovering news junkie. If you've followed me for any amount of time, you know my background is in the world of journalism. After obtaining a master's degree in journalism from Indiana University, I worked for a short amount of time in both print and radio news before turning my attention to fiction … Continue reading Breaking News From Babylon…

You Have Nothing to Fear…Except for God.

October 26, 2022February 2, 2022 / Jennifer L. Wright / 1 Comment

This is my favorite time of year. After a long, hot New Mexico summer, there's a certain relief when fall finally arrives. The nights get cool, the leaves change hue, and I can finally-FINALLY-wear jeans without feeling as I was going to pass out from heat exhaustion. But also...it's spooky season. Ever since I was … Continue reading You Have Nothing to Fear…Except for God.

When Sin Seems Justified

October 12, 2022January 6, 2022 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

"She started it!" "No I didn't!" "Yes you did!" "Nu-uh!" If you're a parent, I bet you're cringing right now. And, even if you're not, my guesses are you might be, too. Because we've all been there, either with our children, the children of others, or even in the memories of our own childhood. A … Continue reading When Sin Seems Justified

The Most Faithful Doubter In History

September 28, 2022December 14, 2021 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

When we think of heroes of the faith, there are many names that come to mind. Abraham, Noah, David, Peter, Paul. But one man who doesn't get enough credit is John. No, not John the disciple. I'm talking about the other John, the original John, the first John (okay, not, like, the first John ever … Continue reading The Most Faithful Doubter In History

I Want To Be God’s Favorite

September 14, 2022December 7, 2021 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

My daughter loves to pray. There is no sweeter sound in the world to me than her small voice speaking to Jesus. What's even sweeter is that she's still learning to pray so much of her verbiage comes from words and phrases she's heard others speak. She ends every prayer with "in Your Mighty and … Continue reading I Want To Be God’s Favorite

A Pinch of Salt Is All You Need

May 25, 2022October 20, 2021 / Jennifer L. Wright / Leave a comment

There's a light at the end of the tunnel, folks. Since my kids were born, we've been in the throes of "I won't eat anything but chicken nuggets, macaroni and cheese, and peanut butter sandwiches." Try as I might to introduce them to different foods, my kids would, without fail, take the one required bite … Continue reading A Pinch of Salt Is All You Need
