The Day I Wanted to Toss my Bible

by Lana Christian · In: Hope, Trust · on Nov 6, 2022

I’ve been a Christian since high school. One of the people who helped lead me to Christ turned against God a few years later and told me to flush my Bible down the toilet. By then I was an impressionable college freshman. So maybe you’re thinking this blog is about one of my early experiences as a “baby Christian.” It’s not….

by Lana Christian · In: God's character, Trust · on May 8, 2022

by Lana Christian · In: Encouragement, Trust · on Jan 25, 2021

In my first book about the Wise Men, the youngest Magus searches for mention of a new star in Persian and other cultures’ writings. Frustrated at the enormity of the task, he likens it to digging for treasure in the city’s trash heap….

How to Be Kind to your Soul

by Lana Christian · In: Advice, Grace, Trust · on Sep 7, 2020

Kindness seems to be in short supply these days. COVID + political mudslinging + family stressors + financial woes has created a perfect storm, sucking kindness into its vortex like Dorothy’s house in The Wizard of Oz….

Freedom from Anxious-for-Nothing Syndrome

by Lana Christian · In: Assurance, Trust · on Aug 22, 2020

Writers often suffer from “imposter syndrome.” Self-doubt and a sense of intellectual fraudulence override feelings of competence, despite external proofs otherwise. Christians often suffer from imposter syndromes, too. A particularly damaging one is “anxious-for-nothing syndrome.”…
