INTERVIEW | MaRita Teague
MaRita, describe yourself for our visitors.
Aside from the obvious, which is reading and writing, I love spending quality time with my husband and children. We like to take walks, go to museums, and sometimes to the movies. However, you’re most likely to find me at church. Whether it’s a church service or activity, my family is very active in church, especially in the music ministry. I sing in the choir, and my husband is a minister of music. Listening to gospel music is another favorite hobby.

God knows my name and He knows yours, too!
God knows my name and He knows yours, too!

She was suddenly hit hard. The unexpected impact sent her sprawling to her knees. She could hear the incessant sound of the rain, pelting against her large bedroom window. It was all a strange phenomenon, to her. Dark billowy clouds had gathered, hovering and intimidating. It was an remarkable sight. The howling winds were a frightening thing to hear. The ominous sound caused chills to dance over the lone woman’s slight frame.
The Harlequin More Than Words Program is looking for a few good women.
Somewhere right now a woman’s compassion is improving the quality of life in her community-not only for herself, but for those she cares about most. With each act of kindness, each word of support, she is proving that real-life heroines do exist. At Harlequin, we believe that her story should be told!
National Christian Writers Conference to be held in Virginia Beach, Virginia

Cheryl Lacey Donovan to be among presenters at the National Christian Writers Conference
Award winning author, Cheryl Lacey Donovan will be among the presenters at the National Christian Writers Conference in Virginia Beach, Virginia in September. Cheryl’s topic is Strategic Book Placement in the Marketplace.
"Writing the book is the easiest part," says Donovan. The hard part is getting the book into the hands of your target audience. One of the first things book sellers want to know about is your platform. From this they can determine if they want to have your book placed in their store. Building a platform that speaks to the needs of the people who would be interested in your book is the best way to get your book strategically placed."

The beginning of the book of Acts gives the account of Believers in the process of being transformed into the Body of Christ, transitioning the message of the Gospel with the demonstration of signs, wonders, and miracles. Jesus had ascended back to His heavenly position, releasing the Holy Spirit to move working with Believers to fulfill the Great Commission of ‘Go Ye’. “And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following.” (Mark 16:20). It was these signs, the wonderful work of God that attracted people to the truth of Jesus Christ.
