I love it when I see my friends’ books hit the shelves – especially when I’ve brainstormed with them, and prayed with them in the writing process. I think this is some of Chris’s best work – and just in time for Christmas! I know you’ll love it!

Susan Books

For a brief time during college, I wanted to be a producer. A news producer. I was in school for mass communications and piled up the broadcasting classes, even doing a stint at a cable news station.
