Still Waiting

Advent for Women

Angela Taylor

After the prophet Malachi put down his pen, God went quiet. No prophet. No new word. Four hundred years of silence, and generation after generation left to decide whether they still believed a promise none of them had seen come true.

Then the silence broke, and it broke with a baby crying in Bethlehem.

Still Waiting begins in that long quiet and walks you all the way to the manger: twenty-eight days, four weeks, through Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love. You will keep company with Hannah, Elizabeth, Mary, Anna, and Ruth, and with Corrie ten Boom, Fanny Crosby, Mother Teresa, and Harriet Tubman. Women who waited at real cost and kept their lamps lit.

A few quiet minutes a day, written for the woman who is making Christmas happen for everybody else.

Hey Mom

Pieced Together

Angela Taylor

For thirty years, Angela Taylor called her mother from the car on the way home from work. Dinner ideas, picky eaters, marriage, money, faith, and every hard thing in between, worked out at fifty-five miles an hour with her mother on the other end of the line.

Then her mother fell asleep in her favorite chair one evening and didn't wake up. The calls stopped.

Hey Mom is what Angela did next. She kept talking. These are the conversations she remembers and the ones she wished she could still have, about a childhood in Colorado, a marriage she had to leave, two sons she raised while she was still becoming herself, and a mother who never solved a single problem for her and somehow answered everything.

If you have lost your mother, or you still have her and you're not sure you've said enough, this one is for you.

What Do I Even Say?

The Undiscussables at Work

Angela Taylor

Every workplace has them: the conversations everyone knows need to happen and nobody wants to start. The performance problem that has gone on too long. The tension between two people that the whole team can feel. The question you are afraid to ask your own boss.

What Do I Even Say? is for leaders who were promoted for being good at the work and then handed the hardest part of the job with no training at all. Drawing on decades of corporate, nonprofit, and executive coaching experience, Angela gives you a way into the conversations no one trained you for.
