She has authored two faith-based parenting books. ##### “Manifesting God's Love in my Life and Family” I was raised in a middle-class family where my father worked three jobs, yet Sunday church and family time were deeply cherished. In my teenage years, I embarked on my own and hit the streets running. I ran so hard and continued to do so as a free spirit hippie girl. At the age of 23, I knew it was time to get real with life. I worked hard and yet I still wasn’t free from the party life. Many years later and several relationships later, I thought I had found the right one. The one that I would settle down with and start a family. Things were amazing the first five year and then it all changed. I be- came pregnant, and upon sharing the news with my boyfriend, he told me to ‘do what I needed to do – he was out! I stood, alone, pregnant… This major life changing experience, as a single mom, motivated me to recommit to learning and practicing the teachings around what it meant to manifest God’s love in my life, and now in Blaine's life. A family was born. Through our journey together I consistently evi- denced God’s love in our family, despite unexpected challenges. We loved each other more than I had ever known this kind of love. I began going back to church, where months later, my son befriended this man and a very sweet friendship began. He would soon become my husband and my son’s ‘father.’ While living in Colorado, I became ill and after many hospital trips I had a burning desire to move to the warmth of Florida. We moved away from everything we knew and family and friends we so loved. Finding a church home in a new place proved to be stressful and challenging. My heart's desire was to learn how to better manifest God’s love, yet my frustration grew so great that we stopped going to church alto- gether. Bad mistake! Out of my journey I'd eventually write two books, THE BOOK, “I’m Doing The Best I Can!” (They won’t always be cute and adorable) and Manifesting God’s Love in Your Family (Growing Together In Faith.) Over the years my family unit began to deteriorate as hardship and bitterness grew between myself and the most important people in my life. Anger and discontent replaced love in a now divided home. Frustrated, I began to journal, to help me process what I was experi- encing while asking God for insight. A couple of years later I remember feeling a presence as though the Lord was standing at my side asking if ‘I was still mad at Him for allow- ing my family to have fallen apart the way it did.’ The message I received was that; He brought my son home every night. Instantly, and at that moment I fell to my knees and asked for forgiveness. He had never abandoned me, I left Him. He just had to remind me of His fatherly love towards me. These experiences led me to convert my journal writings into two books.

In my book, Manifesting God’s Love In Your Family, you will find healthy and loving ideas on how to empower and direct the way they will go. Families are in trouble with all the different ideas coming at our chil- dren and it's our job to direct them through biblical principles rather than new wordly ideas. That many younger and adult children are feeling a shift in the way of the world. With sound advice, which is in my book, there is a great possibility that your family will get through it unscathed. As parents, we carry much of the burden of the homelife. It can be a very hard journey if we allow it to overwhelm us and get out of hand. In my book, I continually go back to the fact that, the Bible, is our handbook to a successful marriage and raising of children. When we take time with God every morning in prayer, and we pray consistently over our family, the load may become much lighter. Our children need us to be totally committed, healthy parents not their friend. To build a solid and healthy family, it’s an excellent idea to provide a platform for your family to build on. When the relationship with God and Jesus are a normal way of life, you may see that deci- sions being made about life situations may take a more positive turn. Praying together allows everyone to share their heart and thoughts openly and honestly. When we set up a time, daily, to spend time in the Bible and/or a bible study (which in my book, there are 5 ques- tions at the end of each chapter), we find that everything that is going on around us becomes quiet. That when we Manifest God In Our Family, we are equipping one an- other to go into the world boldly while understanding that we are in the world but do not have to be a part of it. ### NEXT STEP Schedule a Complimentary Discovery Call. ##### Lisa Rusciano LisaRusciano.com Click to call/TXT 727-434-0155 LisaRusciano23@gmail.com Instagram.com/lisarus1952 Linkedin.com/LisaRusciano ## Summary - Authored "I'm Doing the Best I Can!" and "Manifesting God's Love in Your Family (Growing Together in Faith)." - Former co-host of the TV show "A View from the Pew" and host of the radio show "Everyday Parenting." - Books have been reviewed by Bernie Siegel, MD and #1 New York Times best-selling author Richard Paul Evans. - Contact: LisaRusciano.com, 727-434-0155. ## Clerk **Received.** Chapter 31 — Lisa Rusciano McPherson (Lisa Hein) — is now in the vault. The thread that stands out: the long arc from running hard, single motherhood, church fracture, and bitterness, to the moment she realized He had never left, only she had stepped away, and how the journals became two books that now carry that same message outward. The deposit is held. I'm here if there's more. --- _PRISM refractions and Sherlock notes may be appended to this item in later turns._
