The Energized Family by Vickie Hodge Holt

The Energized Family by Vickie Hodge Holt We all have “characters” in our lives. Everyone has a different personality, yet somehow we all grow together, work together, and manage to love each other. The Energized Family is the perfect example of what it takes to be a family and work through the challenges of life. As you read, see if you know of any “characters” in your life that resemble Gloria’s artistic friends. If you find one of them, watch the others around him or her and see just how they deal with their personality. You might find a new way to look at your own friends and family. Later, they might find you to be quite “energized” too, in your own responses towards them. While Gloria, an artist, is on vacation, lightning strikes through her bedroom window hitting her desk she draws on. The artist’s tools become energized (the word used to describe them as being alive). Gloria’s paintbrush, pencil, scissors, eraser, paint pallet and ruler devise a plan to make a note to give Gloria the news of their changes. After all, with this plan in place she can read about their changes before she actually sees them alive, that is, energized. This is how we enter their imaginary world and they prevent Gloria from being “skeerd”. You will find this imaginary story exciting and refreshingly innocent. The story challenges us all not to compare ourselves with others but to appreciate our uniqueness, which is our strength. Everyone wants to “fit in” and “find their place in this life”, since it is energized with opportunities. Our family is our greatest resource. When we allow other family members to grow along side us, we, too, will become energized. $15.00

THE SUNDIALS OF HEART ISLAND by Vickie Hodge Holt

My newest release is The Sundials of Heart Island. AuthorHouse is the publisher. I am looking forward to going to New York this year for book signings. The story takes place on Heart Island in the Saint Lawrence Seaway. A love story that changes the past and the future through time-travel. If you have already read The Weavers, you will read the other side of the FBI's phone conversation when a Christian event is saved from a terrorist bombing. A love story you will remember, unless the heirs of the sundial decide you shouldn't.

THE WEAVERS by Vickie Hodge Holt

When his father is killed in an accidental explosion, TNT expert Weavin’ Willie Marcus is suspicious. His father was a specialist – he would not have made that many mistakes. When the word “terrorists” enters the equation, Willie realizes he might be the next target. It is a dangerous time, further complicated with the arrival of the beautiful, charming Jennifer Mason, whom Willie cannot live without.
When the dynamiting crew is commissioned to demolish an ancient prison in Jerusalem, Willie experiences the Lord as the Weaver of new beginnings. Willie discovers a mysterious diary in the rubble with an intricately woven cover. As Willie translates, he discovers the author of the diary was a weaver of a different sort-not of wires, but of baskets, and a very particular crown of thorns.
Vickie Hodge Holt’s The Weavers is a tale of our humanity, as we struggle daily to make sense of the madness while keeping our eyes on Jesus. The message is a reminder that we are not the first to experience hardship, and that God has a plan in all things. Will Willie reject the plan God is weaving into his life, or will he learn from his ancient predecessor?

Welcome

Thank you for stopping by today! I am an author from Spartanburg, SC and I've written 74 children's television shows, which were awarded 3 Silver Angel Awards from Excellence in Media, Hollywood, California.

My passion is creative writing for ministry materials and teaching aids. The workshops I conduct are packed full of fresh ideas designed to equip any teacher with the tools he or she needs to complete a task.  Each piece of material can stand alone or be blended to create a full program and lesson for all age groups.
 
I long to share my writings with you and the world and to impact future teachers and students for many years.  May you be blessed by all you read!
