Hi, I'm Diana Furr!

Six years ago, I entered the Valley of Cancer. Now cancer-free (!), I am keenly aware that cancer of a different kind is attacking one of the liberties I cherish most in America -- Religious Liberty. Who will win this battle? People of faith, empowered with knowledge, practical strategies, and the courage to stand. This blog will become your "go to" place for Learning and Leverage, especially for leaders in business -- the next great mission field for Christ.

2018’s Hottest T-Shirt Contest?

The Kentucky Supreme Court could rule on this case any day. Does anyone care? Hands On Originals, founded in 1985, is a t-shirt printing company in Lexington, Kentucky. Blaine Adamson, a key designer, became owner/partner in 2008. The company was bleeding red, over $500,000 in debt. Blaine cried out to God one sleepless December night....

Unstuck… In Spirit, If Not In Body!

Precious Readers... Yes, I've been absent the last couple of post days. Just thought I'd fill you in, since it's pretty unusual for me to not be writing. We've been scurrying around, packing for our big move south. Back to our real Home, leaving our vacation retreat behind once again. We were all set to...

Color Me… What???

Lawsuits take many years to reach the U.S. Supreme Court. Few are even considered by the highest court in the land. Most parties who prevail in such lawsuits are able to finally breathe a sigh of relief. Or so you would think. Not Jack Phillips. As owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop, he had declined to use...

When Destiny Comes Into Laser Focus

Normally, I write about Christian business owners called to impact the marketplace for Christ. Today, I feel compelled to write about a leader in government service... ... who discovered God's palpable Presence -- and his own God-given destiny -- at a time that should have ended his life. The son of a Baptist preacher, Bernie...

Expecting Victory in Every Valley!

Earlier this month, Father Shenan Boquet posted an opinion piece in Life Site News online. It is one Christians observation of growing darkness in our culture.

Don’t Play With Fire!

We all remember one or both of our parents exhorting us with this urgent warning. "Don't play with fire!" We may not have always heeded it... but we certainly heard it. Amen? Why the warning? Because of the expected consequence. If you play with fire, you're likely to get burned. Kelvin Cochran took this warning...

i61… Highway to Heaven?

She is a business owner. Not just any business owner. She's from the United Kingdom. But which one? See if you can guess. Her business logo looks like an interstate highway sign. i61. Leading to an out-of-this-world destination. Her logo's inspiration? "The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on Me, because the Lord has anointed...

Be Always Ready to Plant …

... whenever the wind of the Holy Spirit blows. I've known her for many years. We've shared many significant life experiences. Graduations. Career moves. Weddings invoking Your name, Lord. It wasn't until this week that I knew for sure... She doesn't yet know You. We were in a car for 90 minutes. Just the two...
