INTERVIEW | Cheryl R. Carter
Cheryl, describe yourself for our visitors.
I am a rather busy yet not consumed home schooling mother of three. I have also written and self published time management and organizing books. I speak regularly at churches, women retreats and organizations on issues of time management and spiritual growth. I also assist my husband in his ministry to families (www.FamilySuccess.org) in crisis and we regularly do parenting, marriage and family workshops.
In my spare time I enjoy reading, spending time with my husband and kids and doing anything but writing. I enjoy various genres but especially like books whether fiction or nonfiction that inspire me to grow and change or provide me with insights. Everyday, I strive to be more like Jesus than the day before and enjoy doing anything that aids me in that process.
INTERVIEW | Sheila Lipsey
Sheila, describe yourself for our visitors.
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” This is one of my favorite passages of scripture, Jeremiah 29:11. I hope this scripture alone gives you some insight as to who I am and the purpose for my life.
I am actually a “people” person though I do enjoy my solitude as well. Writing and speaking are definitely gifts that I know have been given to me by God. I love doing both of them. I am the proud, single parent of two adult sons and I have three grandsons. My mother is my staunchest supporter and I love her dearly. I come from a strong family structure and am extremely close to my three older siblings. Read more
