The book that inspired this blog...the novel that tells the story of one woman moving toward healing by fighting through the pain to share small acts of kindness with others...
My author copy of Stepping Into Sunlight arrived in the mail!
It's shiny, smells of fresh ink, and is such a miracle. When I think of the two years of heart, soul, and labor that went into this - not just from myself, but from editors, test readers, designers, type-setters, artists, marketing folk, critique buddies - I'm overwhelmed with gratitude.
Here's a "kindness idea" as I celebrate this arrival...
Think of a friend who could use a reminder that they are not forgotten - that you care about them, and God does, too. Order a copy of Stepping Into Sunlight, and give it to them.
It's not a "how to" book. It's not full of suggestions or advice. It's just a story.
Sometimes a story is exactly what we need.
Blessings!

A place to share ideas of small steps of kindness that we can offer others, and a place to talk about our experiences.
Small Steps of Kindness
In the novel, Stepping Into Sunlight, Penny Sullivan pulls out her little yellow notebook, and sets a goal to do a small kind act for a different person each day.
This blog is a community notebook, where we can support each other as we participate in "Penny's Project."
Please use the comments feature to tell about kind acts you've done. I know that many people feel shy about sharing good things they've done, but it can provide inspiration and ideas for others. So feel free to invent a screen name or post anonymously if you'd rather.
For the fictional character, Penny, reaching out in small and simple ways - to friends, family, neighbors, and often to total strangers - helped her in her journey of healing. I pray that each person who joins Penny's Project will be deeply blessed as they explore new ways to bless others.
“The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine,
you did for me.'"
– Matthew 25:40
