Stories That Matter

Hi, I’m Gloria Fennimore.

I write stories and devotionals that reveal the light of God in everyday life.

Pull up a chair and stay awhile. There’s light for you here.

And you just might find the courage to carry it with you.

I believe stories are lanterns—small lights of hope for life’s difficult moments. Especially the ones where forgiveness is hard.
