Shakin' The Salt

Learn how you can apply God‘s word to change areas in your life, face the unknown trials of each day and be equipped for the great future that God has for you.

Life is short and it’s time for you to have joy for your journey.

No one that I know would want to go through suffering just to build better character in themselves! Most of us would much rather learn in a gentle and easy way how to be a better person, wouldn’t we?

Six months ago we began drafting Bud’s book when he was invited back again to be the keynote speaker for a hospital cancer awareness event. I am so proud of him for stepping out of his comfort zone and being the keynote speaker!

When you hear of someone going through the same thing you are, it seems you immediately share a “common bond” even if you don’t really know them. So it was with actor James Van Der Beek who shared his bout with cancer.

A friend recently told me she thought God was mad at her. After a brief discussion she admitted there was nothing to blame it on except for so many horrible things happening in her life! I believe whatever it is, God can use that – and us- to bring good!

I got out of my heated pool to answer the phone. Family and friends “back home” were in a horrible snowstorm with flights canceled, their roads closed, and they couldn’t even find a store that was open.

My sweet grandmother spent over 60 years attending church alone each week until my “womanizing” grandfather at 83 decided at a funeral, he wanted a “Graduation Celebration” just like this one. But my brother, the Minister, told him he couldn’t because he didn’t know if he was going to Heaven or not!

Former Bachelor Clayton Echard’s casual one-night fling turned into a paternity nightmare. When the news broke about the scandal, no one believed Clayton at first. He was a reality TV star, and an unpopular one at that. Clayton found himself trying to prove the truth, while trapped in a web of lies, manipulation, and threats. He would soon discover he was not the only one. At its core, this is a story about who you believe and why. It’s an epic battle that would take a group of strangers, citizen sleuths from across the world, to crack the case and finally hold someone accountable. New episodes of Love Trapped are released every Thursday, starting February 26th, 2026.
