Books written by Vivian:
VEGAN CUISINE: Biblical and scientific information, menus and other helpful forms, fun anecdotes, plus over 100 recipes!
THE PROVERBS 31 WOMAN'S RESUME: written after leading women in rehab through 12 weeks of life skills, it is great for young women (teens and older).
INTRODUCTION TO HEALTHY LIVING (Recipes for Life) includes chapters on faith, rest, exercise, and nutrition. It discusses vegan info plus further study on the importance of lectin-free and high nutrient diets.
JOURNEY TO ETERNITY (Positive Reflections on Death and Dying): is an easy read but packed full of info learned from 14 years as a hospice nurse and 57 years of personal experience with death and dying.
Moment of Reflection:
One powerful takeaway from Vivian’s story is the simple phrase, “but God.” In seasons that didn’t make sense—when the pain felt heavy and the answers felt far away—those two words became a declaration of trust. Not a denial of hurt, but a reminder that God is still present, still working, and still good.
Where in your story do you need to add “but God”?
Is there a situation that feels unresolved, painful, or confusing—where you’re being invited to trust before you see the outcome?
Clarity may not have come yet. The waiting may not be over. But even there… but God.
