Redeeming Love


“Just a few minutes,” Mama said quickly. Too quickly. Was she afraid?

But why? “That’s all I’m asking, Alex. Please. It would mean so much to her.”

Alex Stafford stared down at Sarah. His mouth was pressed tight, and he studied her silently. Sarah stood as still as she could. She’d stared at herself in the mirror so long this morning, she knew what he would see. She had her father’s chin and nose, and her mother’s blonde hair and fair skin. Her eyes were like her mother’s, too, although they were even more blue. Sarah wanted Papa to think she was pretty, and she gazed up at him hopefully. But the look in his eyes was not a nice one. 

“Did you pick blue on purpose, Mae?” Papa’s words startled Sarah. They were cold and angry. “Because it brings out the color of her eyes?”

Sarah couldn’t help it, she glanced at her mother—and her heart fell.

Mama’s face was filled with hurt.

The Art Of Seduction

We all have the power of attraction—the ability to draw people in and hold them in our thrall.

Hypnotized by your seductive character, your victims will not notice your subsequent manipulations. It will then be child's play to mislead and seduce them. There are nine seducer types in the world. Each type has a particular character trait th...

The Art Of Closing The Sale

WHEN I BEGAN SELLING, COLD-CALLING FROM OFFICE to office during the day, and from house to apartment during the evening, I was terrified of closing. Every day, I would sally forth to sell, unafraid to get face-to-face with prospects and enthusiastically deliver my sales information. Then, at the end, I would choke up and askhesitatingly, “What do you want to do now?” Invariably, the prospect would say, “Well, leave it with me and let me thinkabout it.” I learned later that the words, “Let me think it over” or “Let me think about it” are polite customer-speakfor “Goodbye forever; we’ll never meet again.” I convinced myself that people all over town were “thinking it over” and that my phone would soon fall off the hookwith eager buyers. But no one ever called. I finally realized that it was not the product, the price, the market, or the competition that was holding me back from making sales. It was me. More specifically, it was my fear of asking a closing question. One day, I decided tha...

IN CHRISTIAN CIRCLES today, this issue of ‘God said​…’ or ‘God told me…’ has brought a lot of confusion and caused a lot of problems especially for unassuming young ladies today. You find that when it comes to marriage, a lot of people, especially ladies make the mistake of falling prey to manipulation and intimidation under the guise of a marriage proposal. A man comes to a young lady and says to her, “Thus saith the Lord: you are my wife” or another very common one you’ll hear is, “I had a dream and the Lord revealed to me that you are my husband”. You know, I hear this a lot and it really bothers me that young people will allow themselves to be held captive or manipulated by such lies. So I decided to address the issue once and for all.
