She enjoys using her spiritual gifts of encouragement and teaching.

Her primary goal is to share her personal testimony with others while bringing hope and practical help through her book.
Deborah McCarragher has also been a small business owner for over 30 years and formed Alabaster Box Publishing as a vehicle for producing and promoting her Christian writing projects.

MISSION POSSIBLE addresses the struggles and difficulty of a marriage when one spouse find the Lord first. Being unequally yoked after you are married presents a unique situation – one that isn’t often discussed within church circles.
MISSION POSSIBLE won the Readers Favorite Gold Seal Christian Non-Fiction Award.
It has been a privilege and an honor for Celebration Web Design to help with the creation of Deborah’s redesigned website.

Thought of the day by Gregg Jones
Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path.
—Psalm 119:105
Everyone has a worldview. Our worldview is influenced by many things. It’s influenced by our culture, by our upbringing, and by our education or lack thereof. It’s influenced by the books we read or the lack of books we read. It’s influenced by the media we expose ourselves to.
A worldview is comprehensive. It will affect every area of our lives, from our morality to how we spend our money to our politics to how we vote. It affects everything about us. What we want to have is a Christian worldview, and more specifically, a biblical worldview.
C.S. Lewis said, “I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen, not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.” That’s how we need to view life: through the lens of Scripture, through the eyes of a follower of Jesus Christ.
The only way to have a biblical worldview is by studying and memorizing Scripture and spending time in it every day. We want to run everything through a biblical grid, asking ourselves, “What does the Bible say about this?”
Sometimes people have an emotional worldview. They base their views on how they feel. They’ll say, “Well, I just go with my heart, because the heart wants what the heart wants.”
Here’s what the Bible says about our hearts: “The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?” (Jeremiah 17:9 NLT).
Don’t go with your heart, because your heart can mislead you. Don’t go with your emotions, because your emotions can mislead you. And certainly don’t go with the culture, because that will mislead you. Go with the Bible. It will never take you in the wrong direction. Learn to think biblically.

Dear Partner,
During this time when many of us are being asked to shelter in place nothing is more important than to remember that God is in control of every situation. The coronavirus is not a surprise to God.
I would like to share a comforting excerpt from Leona Choy’s A Matter of Perspective blog:
“Everything may look chaotic, confusing, and out-of-control to you and me. We may feel anxious and disoriented because our status and the instructions given seem to change daily. We are tempted to fear, anxiety and panic. God's Word has a calm directive for us, a balm for our mental state and emotions and spiritual welfare in Psalm 46:10, “Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations.”
We developed Leona’s website (https://leonachoy.com/) a few years ago, right around her 93rd birthday. It was truly a priveledge being able to work with her in developing her site. She is wonderful Christian women who has been praising and serving the Lord for over 95 years. When you have the opportunity visit her website at https://leonachoy.com/ you will be truly blessed. I shared her blog with my wife, who shared it with her sister, who shared it with her husband. He is the pastor at a nursing home in PA. We may never know how what we say, what we write or what we do, affects others, but God knows and has everything under control including the coronavirus.

He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. Mark 4:39
