Read more: The Privileged Life: Ways to Honor the Fallen…and Jesus Christ“You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power….” (Revelation 4:11) Memorial Day frequently comes and goes for many of us without remembrance. We treat it casually, just another holiday to celebrate with cookouts, a day at the park, or shopping sales. This morning, however, the gloom of rain has brought to my mind…

The Privileged Life: In the Wilderness with God
Read more: The Privileged Life: In the Wilderness with God“Now it happened, when Saul had returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, ‘Take note!

ABOUT ME AND LIGHTBOURNE CREATIVE
Hi! I’m an adventure enthusiast who loves snow-skiing, making biscotti, taking photos, and sharing a good laugh. I’m a history buff, too, with an affinity for antiques and fascinating stories from the past. My writing career began with five years in the “Mad Men” world of ad agencies, crafting ads and commercials for ceiling fans, soft drinks, and pest control, among others. Then, during nearly a decade of editorial work at Federal Express headquarters, I traveled the globe (often in FedEx jet cockpits) and collected memories of international cultures. I also served as an adjunct instructor at a Christian college for a decade, teaching PR strategies and practices to the next generation of professionals. Lightbourne Creative is my professional PR/communications/writing moniker.
Eventually, I left the corporate life for the mountains of East Tennessee—the best place in the world to call home. Now, I write for the sheer pleasure of it, with blogs and novels at the top of my “fun stuff to-do” list. I’m serious, though, about serving Jesus Christ as a prayer warrior and writing for God’s glory—striving to encourage others on their spiritual journeys. When I’m not writing, look for me hiking the Appalachian Trail with my beloved husband and our mini-schnauzer Heidi. Follow my weekly posts about the “privileged life” of knowing Jesus!
