Reader loyalty will stay because I'm not changing.

dream jesus mind
A verse came to mind, one that has comforted Kari before. It was the shortest verse in the Bible: Jesus wept. If he cried over Jerusalem, if he cried over the death of Lazarus, surely he was crying now over the death of her dreams, the death of her marriage.

I came to Christ in my early 20s.

Life changes, people come and go and seasons never last. Karen kingsbury # Leaving
relationship people broken
I'm receiving 300 to 500 letters every week from people telling me that God used my stories to save their marriage or to introduce them to Christ or to heal a relationship that had been broken.
choices choices-you-make bad-choices
The more bad choices you make, the less bad your choices seem.
writing stories trials
I write about the trials and triumphs of contemporary life - and often the readers see themselves between the lines of the story.
spiritual character emotional
Secular writers can tell a story about the physical, the emotional, and the intellectual parts of a character. But no matter how well they tell the story, they miss a facet that is innately part of all of us - the spiritual.
people way good-person
But the Beast was a good person...the Prince looked on the outside the way the Beast was on the inside. Sometimes people couldn't see the inside of the person unless they like the outside of a person. Because they hadn't learned to hear the music yet.
laughing laugh-often christ
Love well, laugh often and live well for Christ.
pain hate heart
I tell of hearts and souls and dances... Butterflies and second chances; Desperate ones and dreamers bound, Seeking life from barren ground, Who suffer on in earthly fate The bitter pain of agony hate, Might but they stop and here forgive Would break the bonds to breathe and live And find that God in goodness brings A chance for change, the hope of wings To rest in Him, and self to die And so become a butterfly.
gifted
You're gifted to do something.
winning games victory
Never be passive. Victories happen when you take charge of a game. You can't win by playing not to lose".
