First Line Friday: Words Matter by Robin Lee Hatcher

February 18, 2022 by Suzie Waltner 5 Comments

As readers, we get to know authors through the words they’ve written in story form. But what about the words written on their hearts? In Words Matter, Robin Lee Hatcher shares some of the prayers she has prayed over a group of writers over the past decade.

 

About the Book

Robin Lee Hatcher shares her heart in this slim volume of prayers. The book got its start in 2009 when she was asked to post prayers in an authors’ email group. These are prayers for anyone who loves Jesus and wants to serve Him. They are prayers that Robin needed to say for herself as well as for others. Above all, they are prayers from her heart, and perhaps they will reveal a little of who she is to those who read them.

“What an eloquent collection of prayers for writers—or for anyone who bears the image of our Creator God. (In other words, everyone!) I especially like the way the prayers are indexed to be used for specific needs, various holidays and other occasions. This is a collection I will turn to again and again for comfort and inspiration.” – Deborah Raney, author of Bridges and the Chandler Sisters Novels

5 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom by Don Willis – Review, Guest Post & Giveaway

January 14, 2019 by Suzie Waltner 3 Comments

 

5 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom by Don Willis

About the Book

5 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom cover
Title: 5 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom
Author: Dan Willis
Genre: Finances/Christian living
Release date: January 8, 2019
Publisher: Whitaker House
As a young and naïve pastor, Dan Willis maxed out twenty-three credit cards and ruined his credit to support his ministry. It wasn’t until massive debt caused the cards to stop working that he realized that God never asked him to do this. Through his candor and honesty, Dan reveals the five steps God showed him to get out of debt: stop spending, create a budget, develop a debt payoff plan, begin saving, and repair bad credit. This led him to becoming a thriving and financially-free ministry. Now, Dan is on a mission to teach this to the world. Using biblical principles, but not relying on miracles or “name-it-and-claim-it” theology, Dan provides easy-to-follow, practical steps that can be used by anyone to escape financial bondage. Finally, he encourages readers to use their financial freedom to help others and advance God’s kingdom, and to use their newfound fiscal wisdom to store up wealth. Without shaming those who struggle financially, 5 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom is the perfect combination of spiritual wisdom and practical advice for those who desperately need it.

Enough of Me by Priscilla Peters – Review

June 30, 2018 by Suzie Waltner Leave a Comment

Have you ever picked up a Bible study only to feel it was over your head or you were being preached at? In Enough of Me, Priscilla Peters takes the approach of a friend. Her hashtags and stories will make you laugh out loud but you’ll also take a real look at your priorities and dig deep into God’s word.

Enough of Me Priscilla Peters

In My Opinion…

Yes, Enough of Me is a Bible study, but there is so much more within the pages of the book. Through this study, Priscilla Peters becomes a friend. The kind that will have your sides splitting from laughter one minute only to drop a truth bomb on you that leaves your comfort and complacency in shatters.
