Emily’s Chance by Sharon Gillenwater


Emily Rose may be in the tiny West Texas town of Callahan Crossing for the moment, but it's just a rung on her ladder to success. Her work at the Callahan Crossing Historical Museum will look good on her ever-growing resume as she attempts to break into the prestigious world of a big city museum curator. Little does she know that cowboy and contractor Chance Callahan has decided that he can convince her to stay--both with the town and with him. As he helps Emily restore the town's history after a devastating fire, can he help her uncover the value of love?

Endorsements
"Filled with Texas charm and the healing power of love."--Debbie Macomber, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Here is my review of this wonderfully romantic western:

I would like to say “Thank you” to Sharon Gillenwater and her publisher for sending me a copy of "Emily's Chance" to review for them. I am truly grateful for this generosity. I really appreciate the time, effort and expense it takes to make a reviewer copy available to me.

"Emily's Chance" is book 2 in "The Callahans of Texas" series by Sharon Gillenwater. In this wonderful novel, Chance Callahan has fallen head-over-heels for Emily, a museum curator who has come to Callahan's Crossing to go through articles being put aside to create a museum of the town's history. Chance has even concocted a way to keep Emily in Callahan's Crossing so that he has the opportunity to woo her.

But Chance's reputation as a heartbreaker and Emily's own disfunctional family and love relationships have jaded her ideas about love and romance. Will Chance have the opportunity to prove that he and his intentions are real? Or will Emily run away from true love to pursue the career that she believes will give her all the fulfillment she needs.

This wonderful romance will entertain, encourage, and make the reader examine their own trust issues. This is a terrific novel that I highly recommend.

Homiletics Training: Content

Homiletics .   By definition, “homiletic” is the art of preaching or writing sermons.   I think we would all agree that our pastors study the Bible thoroughly to deliver sermons every Sunday to their congregations.   The beautiful news is that every child of God can use this discipline to study the Bible for themselves. As a member of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Leadership, part of my required preparation each week is to prepare homiletics for the passage we are studying.   BSF offers an engaging seminar on how to use this method to study the Scriptures.   I’ve taken the seminar several times under two different leaders and I’ve learned something new every time I’ve attended.   I’ve also been doing the process of homiletics for over ten years and I can say that there is no better teacher than the Holy Spirit in this process!   So keep practicing.   Keep sharing and discussing.   I’ve been posting my homiletics on this blog for quite a while, now.   And I would like to share wit
