True Woman: Microwaves and the Eternal God
Do you remember when snail mail was the only option? As a child, I had a pen-pal in Seoul, Korea. Because of the geographic distance, our correspondence required several days of waiting patiently between letters. While I love the ease and convenience of email, I think living without “waiting” may make it difficult for us to grasp the concept of the eternal.

True Woman: The Six-Second Kiss
It all started after years of a quick shout from somewhere near the back door, “Goodbye, honey. See you tonight . . .” which left us both wanting more. It stopped when we decided that before we went out to face our day we would scout the other out, wrap each other up in a warm embrace, and begin our day with an intimate, very married, six-second kiss.

True Woman: The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey
The village children called him Mr. Gloomy.
So begins one of my favorite children's Christmas stories, The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey. I've been reading this to my three-year-old for the last several nights and have had to brush the tears from my eyes more than a few times.

True Woman: What are the angels doing this Christmas?
As I recently wove my way through the mass of mall shoppers, past the long line waiting for Santa’s knee, avoiding the tempting smell of far too expensive coffee, I heard familiar carols blasting overhead: “Angels we have heard on high . . .” And I wondered, What are the angels doing this Christmas?

True Woman: How would Jesus celebrate Christmas?
Between Santa and jingle bells, Christmas parties, and presents to buy and hope for, I think most of us struggle to keep our attention focused on the baby in the manger. I've worked hard to make this a Christmas where I had time to consider the sacred. That's why I keep wondering how Jesus would celebrate His birth.
