Connecting with God | Tia McCollors | Cheryl R. Carter
Special connecting with God thoughts from two moms…
Tia McCollors, author of Zora’s Cry
I’m a new mother of an inquisitive son who’s growing up way too fast. It’s usually early in the morning before anyone else in my house stirs. I don’t have a specific time, just whenever I wake up.

Connecting with God | Leslie Ann Dauphin

Leslie Ann Dauphin, Ph.D., author of The Germ Handbook
I have a permanent connection with God and I know that He is with me at all times. It is this connection that gives me strength and enables me to carry out my purpose. Prayer, worship and Bible reading are a part of my daily life. I also spend much time in fellowship with my husband and family members, at my church, and with friends. (read full interview)
