Christian Conferences....to Go or Not to Go
In the past, I wasn’t a big fan of conferences, Christian or otherwise, probably because I saw them as being a bit like committees; places where people gather to talk and even enthuse about the work that other people are doing. I saw them as a bit of a waste of time as I wanted to get on with the task.
However, I’ve since learned the value of some conferences as well as the more obvious point

“If I firmly believed, as millions say they do, that the knowledge of a practice of religion in this life influences destiny in another, then religion would mean to me everything. I would cast away earthly enjoyments as dross, earthly thoughts and feelings as vanity. Religion would be my first waking thought and my last image before sleep sank me into unconsciousness. I should labor in its cause alone. I would take thought for the marrow of eternity alone. I would esteem one soul gained for heaven worth a life of suffering. Earthly consequences would never stay in my head or seal my lips. Earth, its joys and its griefs, would occupy no moment of my thoughts. I would strive to look upon eternity alone, and on the immortal souls around me, soon to be everlastingly happy or everlastingly miserable. I would go forth to the world and preach to it in season and out of season. and my text would be, "What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul”

Natalie, would you be willing to review my book, "Outlander Chronicles: Phoenix" ? I could provide either a digital or paper copy. [And forgive me if my request is a breach of goodreads etiquette; I'm not aware]. Thanks!

If you have your original Word doc, just do a search for God/Jesus/Christ etc and then check that they aren't used as curse words in the context....There were at least a handful...Let me know once you've done it and I'll amend my review for you!

Hi Natalie,
I'm now seeing your reply. I would very much like to see any examples of blasphemy that you came across in my book and amend them if possible.
Happy New Year!

Hi Angela, I did enjoy your book. I'm a little surprised that you weren't aware of the blasphemy--you write as if it was a surprise to you or as if the characters themselves decided what to write! Please don't blame your decision to include blasphemy on the characters that you created ....You could always remove it if you are really disappointed by it...I would happily amend my review if you choose to do so....Blessings
Hi Natalie,Thanks for your thorough review of my book Coming Out of Egypt. I do appreciate your honest opinion, but I am disappointed that you found some blasphemy. I don't recall any, but if there is, I can only accredit it to either a character's ignorance about God or his/her anger at God.
