On the Air

Click here to listen to my first interview as an author: Sunday, 1/11/09 on Urban Literary Review (BlogTalkRadio) with L. Martin Johnson Pratt ( @iluvblackwomen on Twitter ).

Click here to listen to my Saturday, 7/11/09 interview with Evangelist Maureen Chen and her co-host Juergen on Kingdom Club on BlogTalkRadio.

Robin Tramble interviewed me on 7/14/09 on the subject "Why Forgiveness Tests Our Faith", during her awesome Dynamic Women of Faith Telesummit. (Recording issues required that the interview be split into two parts - Part II is here.)

My transformation from atheist to born-again Christian minister was fodder for a second 60-minute interview with Evangelist Maureen Chen and co-host Juergen Mair on Kingdom via the BlogTalkRadio network on Saturday, 7/25/09.

About My Book
This area does not yet contain any content.

Stepping into the Light: You’re a Christian, what now? is a great primer for the new adult Christian, as well as a devotional and inspiring Christian living guidebook.

Written by Diane L. Harris, the daughter of a South Bronx born Jew and a Jamaican-American ex-Episcopalian Jewish convert, Stepping into the Light is the fearless testimony of a former atheist who admits that while Christian salvation erases the threat of eternal damnation, becoming a Christian is not a magical pill for the ills of life on earth.

Combining curiosity, transparency, a gift for simplifying erudition and a palpable joy, Minister Diane explores the questions for God that inundated her as a “baby believer.”

With clarity and wielding a humble sense of humor, this woman of God leads the way to a down-to-earth relationship with a loving Messiah by answering such important questions as: What’s the meaning of salvation? Who do I become when I’m born again? Do I need to know about spiritual warfare? How is the Old Testament relevant to me as a Christian? What does the New Testament teach? What promises does God have for me? Can I contribute to the kingdom of God?

If you are a Christian, “baby believer” or not, who is asking yourself, “what now?” this book is written for you.

Morning Devotion 1-16-09

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee and will look up.-Psalm 5:3

Good morning, Lord. Thank you for the gift of life and thank you for waking me up this morning to enjoy it. I raise your name in praise for keeping me in my right mind so that I can continue to make right decisions based on my faith in you.

I appreciate the family into which you placed me at birth and bless your name for all the members who have joined this family since I arrived. I am grateful that in those 52 years, no one has left us through divorce or suicide or any unnatural means. That is a huge blessing today.

For the families I joined through marriage and through your salvation, I dance joyfully with my feet and in my soul, not because any of us are perfect, but because the opportunities for giving and receiving love are so great and knowing you as the source of that love are so wonderful.

In Jesus' name I pray and in His name I thank you always. Amen.

This was beautiful, and a wonderful reminder to thank the Lord when we wake up, and to shake off the dust that can accumulate in our lives.
Blessings
