Thank you for offering both a written and audio version of the article. I so want to do this, I have to get past the "want to" and get busy with actually getting it done. I am beginning to think I need to find a new way to think about it, so it's not a chore. The stories of how lives were transformed by the process is inspiring. Thank you!

Thanks for that encouragement, Suzi. And I would encourage you, if you really want to do it, to join the workshop, because there you will find people who will inspire you and the accountability that comes with community. Let me know if you have any questions!

Please let me know when the next one starts after the March session. I would end missing half of the next session offered, so best to wait for the next one. I do understand that an active community will keep me motivated.

I used to teach classes on writing life stories for family or for themselves. People have so much to share that they may not even realize how much. Thank you for a great article!

What a wonderful gift to lead people in writing their life stories, Kate! It’s true that people often don’t realize how much until they have some structured reason to do it like a class!

Your writing is so very helpful and encouraging, Elizabeth. Every parent and grandparent's hope is that following generations will love and serve the Lord with all of their hearts and wills.
