About Jill English Johnston

God writes His story on every heart, if we only pause to read it. My heart has lived in a fantasy world since early childhood and am delighted that God has finally brought me to the place where I can bring the fantasies to life through story. I am currently working on a fantasy trilogy (of course) but I also post thoughts, reflections and (hopefully) inspiration to my website: tabletsofhumanhearts.wordpress.com I am a follower of the Rabbi Jesus, married to my best friend and inspiration, and the mother of three incredible children, one daughter and two sons, a son-in-love, a daughter-in-love and two adorable granddaughters. When not writing, I passionately pursue prayer, reading (never enough time to read them all!), and the outdoors. My husband and I both served in the US Navy and have lived/travelled through many states and all over Asia. We both still enjoy travelling, but we really love our home in New Braunfels, located at the Texas Hill Country.

Using the clothes line is going pretty well.  I use a quarter cup of vinegar in the rinse cycle of the wash as a fabric softener.  It really makes a difference.  The clothes dry quickly in this dry Texas air and … Continue reading →

Abundant Living, First Thoughts

Posted on July 31, 2011 by Jill English Johnston

A friend often talks about the abundant life the Jesus offers: “… I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. (John 10:10 NKJV). This has resonated with me as I seek to … Continue reading →
