    About this ebook

    This short, seven-day devotional examines James 3:13-17, applying it specifically to the life of a writer, but don't let that stop non-writers from reading. The applications can be made to any Christian and is a great way to discover if we indeed have "wisdom from above." Topics covered include meekness, jealousy, ambition, boasting, and being false to the truth.

    Sheila Hollinghead

    I was raised an Army brat and lived many places, settling in south Alabama thirty years ago. I taught middle school science for nineteen years, and I'm now retired at the age of 58. Retirement has enabled me to pursue my dream of becoming a writer. My husband is a poultry farmer. We have two grown sons, a wonderful daughter-in-law, and a blessing of grandkids. I like to think of myself as eclectic. But, then again, I'm probably just ADD with a little OCD thrown in for good measure!
