It became a two year project, but it is now complete. I put unrealistic goals upon myself. I had the lofty idea of writing, editing, and proofing my second book, “On the Way - 40 days Traveling With Jesus On The Way To The Cross,” in one year. I had hoped to release this book … Continue reading Books are here!
