This book (Praying God’s Promises: The Life-Changing Power of Praying the Scriptures) is power packed with inspiration, instruction, and encouragement for both the heart and mind.
Linda Evans Shepherd has woven into 27 chapters a combination of stories, prayers, and Scriptures. The different chapters on topics like faith, direction, protection, provision, and many others make it easy to look up a needed encouragement and find the wording for praying in a particular way, along with reflecting on a promise from God’s Word.
This book is like a treasure box of faith-building tools for every
Christian. —Kathryn E. Miller
FACE TO FACE by Jayme Hull with Laura Captari
This book was not only about mentoring and being mentored, but it also shared so much practical wisdom about living life connected first and foremost to Jesus Christ. I am now motivated to find a mentor and pray how God can use me to mentor someone else. As a woman in my 40’s I still have so much to learn but also so much to share. I highly recommend Face to Face. —Becky Philo on NetGalley
Life is complicated and often difficult. Too many people are filling their lives with regrets and “if onlys.” But it doesn’t have to be that way! In her book Face to Face, Jayme Hull demonstrates how people can prosper from the wisdom, encouragement, and counsel of others along their journey. Brimming with wisdom, this book will inform, encourage, and inspire you!

POWER SUIT by Sharon Norris Elliot
This book allowed me to really understand the individiual “armor pieces” that should be worn daily and how they are used to battle sin and conquer the devil. I enjoyed the scripture references and will be sharing this book with other sisters in Christ. —Veronica Pierce
I couldn’t put The Armor of God Fit for the Feminine Frame down! The unique way Sharon Elliot weaves the fashion topic with God’s armor immediately caught my attention. She hit the nail on the head. I get sucked in by Satan in his sneaky ways. Because of reading this book I can’t help but think about it as I get dressed, physically and spiritually, which helps me become more alert to Satan’s daily challenges. Everyone should read this book. You’ll change the way you “dress.” —Annetta Dellinger
