Okay, this was an embarrassing morning. I’m going to have to brush up on my professional sports knowledge, so I don’t humiliate myself on live TV and radio again! FamilyNet has a new news-talk show called “Mornings” with Lorri Allen – carried both on FamilyNet television and Sirrius Radio, live. A few days ago my friend Randy Singer was asked to co-host and to help arrange a few guests, and asked if I’d come on for half an hour, talk about my books, my columns, banter back and forth. No problem.

I watched today as my husband almost got run over while being a Good Samaritan. Scary.
Context: I’ve really been enjoying being done with my ‘traveling season’ for the summer (most summers – including this one -- I only have 3 or 4 trips in 3 months, instead of the usual once a week), and just hanging out with the family and doing absolutely nothing on the weekend! So we went to the mall today with the kids, and were driving back home in a pouring rainstorm.

Do you know it's going to be an interesting day when you almost get arrested before 9:30 in the morning? I am currently working on the new business book, which is the corporate application of understanding men, like For Women Only, but in the workplace.

Jeff and I dropped the kids off with their grandparents, my parents, and flew to Fresno, California in the middle of a heat wave. Fresno is in the desert in California and when we got off the plane, it was 111 degrees Fahrenheit, and we went to this absolutely fabulous Church called ‘The Wall’ in Fresno to do a marriage conference than actually really a relationship conference together.
The thing that was so cool about this Church is that the average age in this Church as I think has over thousand people in it; the average age of the full Church is 25; the average Christian is 25 and that is so exciting to us because even though we are a few older than that. Aha! Actually a more than a few years older than that, we hear all the time from people who hear the findings about how men are wired or about the women are wired and they say “Aha! We wish that have been able to hear that’s right at the beginning of our marriage or how we wish we have been able to hear 1:28 we are dating or s ...

My family spent the weekend camping in the beautiful Tennessee mountains, because it was halfway to Nashville where I was invited to speak on Monday at the GMA Week. This is the week every year where the Gospel Music Association and all the Christian broadcasters come together to have their annual convention. In the exhibit hall they have presentations on developing their business as broadcasters and get to hear new bands and old ones and generally reconnect. So it is a lot like the big week in July of every year where the Christian publishing industry comes together. I was expecting to feel somewhat at home, even though I had never been to a GMA Convention before. But I was surprised. It was full of energy and vigor and interest, but wow, is it different from the Christian publishing industry. In the publishing world, you have lots of people in business suits and dresses and people in their 30s, 40s and 50s, who have been a presence ...

I had the most wonderful weekend this weekend, as I am calling this in; I am driving home from the airport on a rainy Saturday night, and looking forward to being with my kids. But also thinking about what a fun and slightly unusual weekend I just had with the ladies of Heritage United Methodist Church in Hattiesburg. The reason that this is unusual is that Paula, the Pastor’s wife, who also runs the Women’s Ministry events told me that their goal and their purpose for their Women’s Ministry events is to purposefully go deeper and dig deeper into the issues while at the same time to have retreats that are just fun times to get women together to fellowship, socialize and teach. At the same time it’s important to really make an effort to be proactive to ensure that the women walk away with a very good idea of how to apply this teaching ...

This trip was both absolutely wonderful in many ways, yet incredibly frustrating in others. This was one of those wonderful invitations. I love speaking in a few specific parts of the Northern Hemisphere, especially the New England area and also in Canada because the culture is so different from the usual, sort of, churchy culture of many other parts of the country in this area. I was thrilled to get an invitation to speak at a Women Unlimited Conference in Ontario. This is a group of people, just a darling group of ladies led by a woman named Betty, who are putting together conferences all across Ontario that reach out to women of all different denominations, really into the secular world, and just give a woman a great day out with some other women from all over who they may not have known before and they all come together and sing and listen to a speaker and it’s just a great model. I’m so glad they’re ...

I made sure today when I headed to the airport that I did not make the same foolish mistake  that I have made before, much to my embarrassment. Last year, Jeff and I had a television program in Vancouver in Canada that we had to go to and so we packed all of our things and headed down to the airport a bit late as usual, pull up to the counter an tried to check in and the lady says, “And your passports please?” and we kind of looked at her blankly and went, “Oh my goodness, we are going to Vancouver, Vancouver is in Canada, Canada is another country, oh my! ...
