Walk With Me

What a lifetime with God taught me about marriage, family, home and hard seasons

For thirty years I ran the office at my church. I typed the bulletin every week, kept the prayer list, and sat with people on the hardest days of their lives. This book is what I'd tell you across my kitchen table, with the Bible open between us.

A taste of the book

Sunday is made on Saturday night.

From Section III, Sunday Best. The words below are exactly as they are printed in the book.

Chapter · Why Sunday is still different at my house

The women had their spices ready before the Sabbath began. Sunday is made on Saturday night.

Mama polished every shoe in the house on a sheet of newspaper on the kitchen floor on Saturday night, and for years I thought it was about shoes. It was about walking into the Lord's house in the morning with nothing left to do but go. What still happens at my house on Saturday night fits in an hour.

  • Stay home. Go out on Saturday night and you come to church with your mind still out.
  • Start whatever Sunday dinner needs started, so the morning has no cooking in it.
  • Hang up what you're wearing and set the shoes under it.
  • Put the offering in its envelope.
  • Read the passage ahead if your church prints it in the bulletin. If it doesn't, read Psalm 92, which my Bible titles a psalm for the sabbath day.
  • Make the phone call. One of the oldest Christian writings outside the Bible told believers to gather every Lord's day and to make peace first with anybody they were at odds with. If there is a woman you're going to have to pass in the aisle, call her Saturday night.
  • Go to bed early. John Newton wrote a hymn for Saturday night, and the end of its third verse is what I would have you fall asleep on:
From our worldly cares set free,
May we rest, this night, with thee.

Who's writing

I'm Loretta Harper.

I'm sixty-four, I live in a small town in North Carolina, and I've been married to Dale for forty-two years. We raised three children in the brick house we still live in, and there are six grandchildren now, the oldest in high school.

For thirty years I was the secretary at our church. I typed the bulletin, kept the calendar and the prayer list, and helped plan more weddings and funerals than I could count. I was never the preacher. I was the one who answered the phone on Monday morning, so I saw what people carry the rest of the week, and I kept every confidence.

I was raised by a mother and a grandmother who prayed out loud, and I still read the King James Bible I grew up on. I retired from the office last year. This book is what I'd tell you if you came by with something on your heart and stayed for supper.

Announcements

What kind of book this is.

Sister to sister

Written as one woman in the faith to another. If you're seventy or eighty, you'll find a friend your age here, not a teacher talking down.

For younger women, too

If you're thirty-five with small children and nobody older to ask, there's a whole section written to you.

The King James, word for word

Every verse quoted exactly, with book, chapter and verse. When I don't quote it, I say it in my own words.

No politics, no denominations

I've watched those arguments empty pews. You won't find them in here.

No fear, no promises of riches

Nothing in here is meant to frighten you into line, and nobody's promising you health or wealth.

Read it in any order

Every chapter stands on its own. Start with the one that's keeping you up at night.
