I pray that Craig Matthews' new book, 'Charity's Fire,' due out June 20, will be a story that stays with readers. It's 'The Perfect Storm meets The Screwtape Letters.'

It’s easy to be calm
when everything goes your way.
It’s what happens when chaos hits
that reveals your true character.

Have you noticed your best creative projects
reflect themes you’re wrestling with or
passionate about? Creating this way shoves formula aside, infusing your art with greater authenticity.
It reflects the journey you’re walking through, rather than what’s popular at the moment.

What is the allure of a balanced life? Everything isn’t equal. Live unbalanced by spending an abundance of your time on what matters most.

The art of soul care involves regularly saying no to many things so you can say yes to the people and projects that matter most. Getting it all done isn’t a realistic option. Being fully present when it counts is.

The creative process actually
doesn’t begin with doing.
There is a deeper foundation.

The first step is simply being.

What you create from that place is always original, because it is more about who you are becoming
than what you are producing.

You can’t rush creativity. When an idea stirs within, it’s amazing. But the process of bringing it to life takes time. The art will let you know when it is ready to be born. Deadlines and formulas may lead to a faster finish. But fast isn’t the same as a fully realized idea.

Compelling characters wrestle with their beasts, their demons, even while attempting to forgive and encourage others. Cameron's journey through his misery takes him on a real one, hiking and hiding in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
