  1. This sounds exciting! Just went and read the recommendations, and I was familiar with just about all the authors. (Austin goes to my church.) Congrats on getting published.

    BTW, I liked the phrase "freeze-frame slow motion."

  2. That phrase creates a very vivid picture, doesn't it? I knew exactly what Dr. Mabry was talking about.

    Thanks for stopping by today!
