Small Potatoes (and Tuesdays @ the Piggly Wiggly)

Where are the greatest life lessons learned? Most of the time they’re not discovered in a classroom or in a book. They’re uncovered in ordinary occurrences and happenstance. Using short essays, poems, and lyrics, this collection reveals how seemingly insignificant people, places, and things (like small potatoes) or routine experiences (like Tuesdays @ the Piggly Wiggly) can greatly impact a life. Growing up in the Deep South in the 1950s and 60s, Nan Corbitt Allen describes the unique experiences that taught her valuable lessons about God’s providence and wisdom. Bible passages are given throughout the book making this a devotional book for all readers.

THE WORDS WE SING - Bringing Meaning To Worship

Though there are various genres of music—country, rap, rock, and pop, to name a few—the Christian music genre is the only genre defined by its lyric. But, how understanding are we as we write, sing, and lead others in worship with these words?
The Words We Sing is an exploration of 49 words and phrases found in both modern worship songs and hymns written years—even centuries—ago. With insight and inspiration, author Nan Corbitt Allen identifies the definition, biblical context, and historical background that make each term come to life with power and meaning. Through Allen's refreshing take on these lyrics, readers will find themselves immersed in the struggles and stories behind the words we sing.
