Holly Murray is a former school teacher. She holds a Bachelor's and Master's degree in education, and has homeschooled both of her boys for most of their educational careers. She has always enjoyed school, especially using her imagination and creativity in writing.

Holly served as a member of her church staff for seven years, but now focuses on helping writers publish their God-stories. Her company is Integrity Publishing (bookswithintegrity.com).

She loves to encourage people to go after their God-given dreams and cheering them on along the way. Her greatest joy is watching her own children pursuing the gifts with which God has blessed them, and also loves to hear her husband play saxophone. You, too, can be a superfan: skmurray.com. :)

When What You Prayed for Comes with Challenges

For a wide door of opportunity for effectual [service] has opened to me [there, a great and promising one], and [there are] many adversaries.
1 Corinthians 16:9, AMPC

I sometimes wonder what it would have been like if Jesus had said, “In this world, once you become My follower, you won’t have any trouble,”

Wouldn’t that have been nice? But that isn’t what
