Bluffton author Ruth Naylor says that her original intent for writing her memoir was to share her personal faith stories with family and friends.
However, at a Christian writers’ conference she was urged to expand the potential audience.
To do that she provided questions at the end of each chapter, helping readers think about their own experiences and share their stories informally with others or in small groups.
She aims to achieve that in “Faith Talk: a spiritual memoir inviting reflection and dialogue,” published by WestBow Press.
