Though each of us have busy schedules, we know we can count on each other to be there to support, encourage, and pray. Soon after that…

Mistaken Identity, Grateful Heart
Thank you to CAN member and contributor Michelle Medlock Adams for today’s edition of Fascinating Fridays! I had just finished signing my latest children’s book at the Guideposts Booth at the largest Christian Book Show.

As we studied the menu, I couldn’t help but notice a group of women sitting at a nearby table. You know why I noticed them? Because they were all staring at me.
