Pathways That Lead to Christ

I am a freelance writer and would like to advertise my writing. I write about business and finance subjects, health and wellness; as well as subjects that deal with mental illness and the many treatments that can help. You can contact me at tstar22@columbus.rr.com (After reading this sample, be sure to read the McGreedy article below it....) Here is a sample of my work: A driving school website should have at least 10 elements. Keep in mind, a driving school homepage is one of the most important pages on a website. The homepage of any website, especially a driving homepage, gets most of the traffic. That is why it is important to transfer most of the traffic to the areas students and others click on for more information. #1 Headline: the Most Important Part of a Driving School Website In a very short time, a driving school website needs to answer, “What does this driving school website offer?” It is important to keep your headline clear and simple. Online users want a cle...

As Christians, we know the importance and meaning of the resurrection of Jesus but when someone asks, “Why do you believe in the resurrection,” how do you respond? What are your reasons; your validation for believing in something that happened thousands of years ago? For some, the resurrection is hard to believe; simply because it happened so long ago and is   not relevant to their lives. In my opinion, there are several indisputable proofs that Christ rose from the dead; one of the most basic proofs comes from Acts 1:3: “To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.” Jesus showed himself alive after his death to His apostles. He showed them his wounds and the stripes on his back and the piercing in his side. “Here in Acts 1:3, we are told that Christ was "seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God" (...

Hi Folks, Just published and posted my new ebook, "Maria's Final Days" on Lulu.com. It is my version of what happens to a fictional character, Maria after the Rapture. Maria is agoraphobic and struggles with the stress and the breakdown of society; a society where most people are numb to what has happened and where every man and woman fight for resources left behind. Maria, like many, has to find a way to live in a world that is without love and compassion. It is a story of Christianity--the good and bad of it--and what happens to those who are left behind. With our current healthcare in disarray and world governments collapsing, the words in my book may be prophetic, true and a bit frightening.  Of course, no one knows when the end will come but there are certain predictions in the book of David and in the book of Revelations that may astound you and make you think twice about what is going on now. Check Maria and see what you think..... Here is th...

Self Improvement : Personal Growth   Ruminating, the process of constantly thinking and rethinking about problems and concerns, is unnecessary and can be harmful to your physical and mental health. However, there are easy things you can do to put rumination in its place such as practicing "reverse rumination." Reverse rumination is when you replace negative and hurtful thoughts with positive, happy and uplifting thoughts. Ruminating is often a sign that a person is obsessive-compulsive; that is, he or she is often troubled by disturbing and intrusive thoughts--thoughts that are repetitive and worrisome. For example, a person may think that he or she may need to engage in a certain ritual so that nothing bad will happen such as checking and rechecking appliances in their kitchen; to ensure that the appliances are off and that nothing bad will happen. Ruminating can harm your Health Ruminating can be hazardous to a person's physical and mental health because ...

My mother at the age of 88 and suffering from Alzheimer's disease died five months ago. It was a sad and gut-wrenching end to a life that was good but also rifled at times with mental and physical illness but throughout her five to seven years of Alzheimer's I saw the glory and promises of the Lord. You might say, "How can you say that with all of the suffering that she went through?" Yes, she did suffer, as well as some of the family but throughout her hospital and doctor visits, times of confusion and loneliness, I saw the power of God and I saw how he took care of her from day to day. She did suffer and at times and I'm sure she wondered where God was in all of this but I feel certain from the way she acted at times, that she knew God was with her and that he would see her through. All I want to say in this brief article is that observing how God provided for her throughout her life--especially the last four years--told me that no matter what goes on i...

Easter Story For Easter 2013 Jennifer was so sad; her father was dying of cancer and she wasn’t sure she was going to make it without emotionally breaking down. Her husband, Fred, was also sick and had been sick for about two weeks. She knew besides praying, that there was nothing she could do for her father but for her husband, she would continue giving him tender loving care for as long as it took. Because he was in the Heart Section of the hospital, doctors and nurses were doing everything they could to make sure he was comfortable and ready for the operation. What made all of this hard to bear, was that Easter Sunday was only six days away and on every Easter Sunday as a child, teen and young adult, her father had always been there for her and for the last 10 years she and her husband always went to church on Easter. She prayed that her father and Fred would both be feeling better by Easter and that they could all go to church together. Several days later, it looked like Jennif...

Giving your Best to God Will come Full Circle! When you think about how God blesses your life everyday and how He provides for your needs, it makes sense, doesn’t it, to give your best to Him? But, how to do that and what can we give to Him that will show that we care; that we believe in Him? Sometimes, I think about this, especially if when I face a need in my life or when I feel my faith is slipping away from me. The thing is, when we give our best to God; be it in the form of loving someone who is unlovable, when we forgive someone who has wronged us or when we help out a neighbor who is struggling or lonely, we are giving our best to Him. And, when we do something wonderful or even ordinary but with a good heart, God will reward us with better health, a better ability to handle difficulties in our life or show us the importance of relationships and how they can be a positive influence in our lives. For example, my husband and I have a neighbor who has been so kind and helpful t...
