Pleasant Words

For school this week we are talking about our WORDS.  Using two spoons, one with honey and one with garbage as an example, I asked, "Which one do you want to eat?"  Of course, no one wants to eat the garbage, but the honey is sweet and pleasant.  God's Word says when we use pleasant words we bring healing to others. 
What kind of words do YOU like to hear?
What kind of words do OTHER PEOPLE like to hear?
What kind of words does GOD want us to use?
Let's be an encouragement to one another.

Interview with Author Lori Benton and GIVEAWAY

Today I want to welcome Lori Benton to the blog. She is the author of two books Burning Sky and her most recent novel  The Pursuit of Tamsen Littlejohn .  Lori Benton was born and raised east of the Appalachian Mountains, surrounded by early American and family history going back to the 1600s. Her novels transport readers to the 18th century, where she brings to life the Colonial and early Federal periods of American history, creating a melting pot of characters drawn from both sides of a turbulent and shifting frontier, brought together in the bonds of God's transforming grace. When she isn’t writing, reading, or researching 18th century history, Lori enjoys exploring the mountains with her husband – often scouring the brush for huckleberries, which overflow the freezer and find their way into her signature huckleberry lemon pound cake.
