Writing from the Heart of Africa<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Today my guest is Lisa Harris, who is a wife, mother, missionary, and award-winning author who has been writing both fiction and nonfiction for the Christian market since 2000. Her husband and she, along with our three children, are currently living in Mozambique were they are focusing on discipleship training. They are also involved in leadership training and orphan aid throughout Zimbabwe and Zambia. <\/span>So here’s Lisa:<\/p>\n

“We\u2019ve all heard of the Mary\/Martha syndrome. Martha was the woman in the Bible who ran around, taking care of all the household preparations when Jesus and his disciples came to stay. Mary, on the other hand, left the preparations to her sister to sit at Jesus\u2019 feet.<\/p>\n

I often feel a mixture between these two women. In wanting to serve others, I\u2019m quick to jump in, but like Martha, too often get caught up in the details like she did, and forget to take time to stop be still. To learn and glean from those around me. To find peace and strength in God\u2019s word.<\/p>\n

When I think about being a strong woman of God, I long to find the combination of both women. Martha opened up her home to Jesus and his disciples, and had the heart of a servant. But Mary was the one who, despite all that had to be done, remembered what was most important.<\/p>\n

\u201cMartha, Martha,\u201d the Lord answered, \u201cyou are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.\u201d<\/p>\n

In our rush, rush world, I find these words a breath of fresh air. God knows the responsibilities we as women have. But He also wants us to sit down, be quiet, and like Mary, draw from His strength.
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Love Finds You in Revenge, Ohio<\/span><\/div>\n

In my latest historical, Catherine Morgan wants to find her strength from God, but also has habit of allowing worry to take over. Catherine is bound by a promise to care for her three sisters until they marry, and will do anything to keep them safe\u2014which isn\u2019t easy. Especially when her old beau, Sheriff Corbin Hunter stands in her way. He has evidence that her sister\u2019s fianc\u00e9 is really an infamous bank robber\u2014and the man who murdered his father. Because of this, Catherine finds herself torn between saving her sister\u2019s heart and losing hers to the man who jilted her seven years ago.<\/p>\n

Through Catherine\u2019s journey in this story, she learns the important lesson of forgiveness, trust, and how to find joy, and in turn, to become a strong woman of God.
What helps you, in your busy day, to connect with God and find your source of strength?

And here’s my Family Recipe
<\/span><\/span>
When I think of summer, I think of my grandmother\u2019s angel food cake topped with strawberries and whipped cream. Definitely one of my summer favorites along with the memories of time spent in the kitchen with her.<\/p>\n

Angel Food Cake<\/p>\n

12 egg whites<\/p>\n

1 \u00bd tsp Cream of tartar<\/p>\n

1 cup sugar<\/p>\n

1 cup flour<\/p>\n

1 \u00bd tsp Vanilla<\/p>\n

\u00bd tsp Almond extract<\/p>\n

\u00bd tsp salt<\/p>\n

In a large bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar on high until foamy. Gradually add \u00be cup of the sugar, beating until sugar is dissolved and stiff peaks form. Add vanilla and almond extracts.<\/p>\n

Sift together flour, remaining sugar and salt. Gently fold flour mixture, \u00bd cup at a time, into egg mixture just until flour mixture disappears. Pour into an ungreased tube pan. Gently cut through batter with a knife to remove air bubbles.<\/p>\n

Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Invert cake pan and cool completely.<\/p>\n

Serve with whipped cream and fruit or simply enjoy plain!”–Lisa<\/p>\n
