The Christian Heritage Series made that possible. She was writing those books from the early 1990&#8217;s until 2000.<\/p>\n<p>And then a new opportunity came along&#8211;the Lily series. If she ever doubted that she was going to make it as a writer, man, that little red-head put those fears to rest! And, of course, Sophie followed Lily, with some teen and grown-up books in between &#8212; plus the non-fiction books designed just for you.<\/p>\n<p>Nancy and her husband live in Tennessee now, overlooking a beautiful lake, lots of sycamore trees, and the rocky Tennessee hills. They have a bright yellow power boat named BANANA SPLIT which you can find us on no matter what the weather. Marijean and her husband live nearby with my three grand-dogs and three grand-cats (and two grand-snakes . . .)<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_m32TlugOPkM\/R7Bx1gqYqfI\/AAAAAAAABOc\/_SXn5FK07IE\/s1600-h\/healingstones.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165753936708676082\" style=\"margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left\" src=\"http:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_m32TlugOPkM\/R7Bx1gqYqfI\/AAAAAAAABOc\/_SXn5FK07IE\/s400\/healingstones.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>With one flash of a camera, Demi&#8217;s private life becomes public news. She doesn&#8217;t know it yet, but her healing has just begun.<\/p>\n<p>Christian college professor Demitria Costanas had vowed to end her affair with a colleague. But she gives into temptation one last time&#8230;and a lurking photographer captures her weakness for all to see. Quite literally, she&#8217;s the woman caught in adultery. And almost everyone&#8211;herself included&#8211;has a stone to throw.<\/p>\n<p>Enter Sullivan Crisp, a decidedly unorthodox psychologist with his own baggage. He&#8217;s well-known for his quirky sense of humor and incorporation of &#8220;game show&#8221; theology into his counseling sessions. And yet there&#8217;s something more he offers&#8230;hope for a fresh start.<\/p>\n<p>Reluctantly the two of them begin an uplifting, uneven journey filled with healing and grace. By turns funny and touching, this story explores the ways humans hurt each other and deceive themselves. And it shows the endlessly creative means God uses to turn stones of accusation and shame into works of beauty that lead us onto the path of healing.<\/p>\n<p>An auspicious debut for a candid yet tender series about pain, healing, and God&#8217;s invitation for second chances.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0849918901\" target=\"_blank\">Click here<\/a> to purchase your own copy of Healing Stones<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is introducing Healing Stones (Thomas Nelson January 1, 2008)byStephen Arterburn &amp; Nancy Rue ABOUT THE AUTHORS: Stephen Arterburn is the founder and chairman of New Life Ministries\u2014the nation\u2019s largest faith-based broadcast, counseling and treatment ministry\u2014and is the host of the nationally syndicated \u201cNew Life Live!\u201d daily radio&#8230; By [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-97","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-books"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=97"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":447,"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97\/revisions\/447"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=97"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=97"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=97"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
