a Wedded to War inspired Giveaway!
It is my absolute pleasure to get to share with you about my good friend, Jocelyn Green and her FANTASTIC Civil War series, Heroines Behind the Lines. I recently read the first book in her series, Wedded to War and absolutely loved it. Rarely am I swept away in a novel as I was by Wedded to War. A fresh voice in Christian fiction, Jocelyn Green captures the heartache and hope of war in this novel that is filled with incredible historic detail about those who worked on the front lines of the Civil War–the soldiers who gave so much to defend their country and the nurses who sacrificed...
Read MoreFolk Music Spotlight ~ The Lumineers
As one of my absolute favorites, this song by The Lumineers has been in my writing mix for a long time. Just last week a good friend messaged me with the video saying how much it reminded her of Lonnie and Gideon… *smile* …and wondered if I heard it. She said it could be their theme song. I couldn’t have agreed more! If Gideon were to write a song, I do think this would be it. If you’ve read Though My Heart is Torn…you just might know what we’re getting at. ;) So without further introduction, here is a song you may very well have heard recently on...
