I’m new to the blogging world, but not the writing world. The words of a writer can affect and change people’s lives. It’s a true gift and I thank God each and every day for allowing me to put paper to pen. It’s a feeling only another writer could possibly understand.

Book Review:Solomon’s choice of words has chal-
lenged our intellect & forced us to “step out of the
darkness” if we are to grow & have God’s favor.

Stand Up!

Dear Manchild,
I met you when I lived in California and I bought a couple of your writings for my wall; one of which was “Woman of Substance”. I must tell you that I use that as my foundation of who I am and so very proud of that writing. Back when we met you were in the process of developing a table top book with your poems. Have you published the book and if so, where can I find it. I am currently living in Boston.

My best to you and your family. I really love this website.
Janine

Hello Alex,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I hope that we can agree to disagree in a peaceful, respectable manner. We can learn a lot from each other if we choose to do so.

Because God gave us all the “freedom to choose,” I can’t accurately predict how my readers will respond to my words. At best, we, as writers and word smiths, can only hope that our choice of words will impact the lives of our readers in some predictable, predetermined manner.

Alex, I agree with you that our main goal as writers is to effectively communicate appropriate messages that will impact our readers and inspire them to react by doing what’s best for them. I don’t believe, however, that our God-given ability to write gives us the right to manipulate, or persuade, people to do what we desire or expect them to do.

Isn’t it interesting to watch how differently two people will respond to the same words? A good example is how differently culturally diverse people will react to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Copywriters MUST know how the words impact. Their task is to communicate, and there’s no such thing without the appropriate message…

It doesn’t make a difference, does it James? Whether he’s black or white…what color is the soul? or the Spirit, for that matter?

And Solomon, if you would permit me I must say…James, though we are all created by God, we are not ALL God’s children…(do you know any Liars? You do? Well then, they have a father and he is most emphatically NOT God.)

Stay walking in love though, that’s the best and perfect thing.
