I stepped out on faith to follow my lifelong dream of being an author. I made real sacrifices and took big risks. But living, it seems to me, is largely about risk.
From Jan Karon
There's nothing trite about being consoled in a world that does everything in its power to deliver sorrow.
I grew up hearing words like snakeroot, sassafras, mullein - things that had wondrous, mysterious sounds in their names.
I try to put my heart out there to everybody. They don't have to be Christian. For example, I have lots of Jewish readers. I love my Jewish readers.
My grandmother influenced me so deeply.
I remember the first time I held my book, my first book in my hands. I cannot tell you how it moved me.
