Week in Review 6/12/22 to 6/18/22 & a Giveaway

June 18, 2022 by Suzie Waltner 4 Comments

Happy weekend! You are going to start seeing fewer review posts from me over the summer. I’ve had to really back of on review commitments because of my writing schedule. I can’t wait to share more about Midnight Blue with you, which is releasing September 6 of this year.

But even though I’m not reviewing as much, I will still be sharing all of the giveaways that I am aware of with you on Saturdays.

Also, I am way behind on getting books mailed (like a month behind) to the weekly winners, but am headed to the post office this weekend. If you are waiting for a package from me, it should arrive within the next week to week and a half.

Saturday Spotlight: Unstuck by Chris Dupre

About the Book

Title: Unstuck

Author: Chris Dupre

Genre: Self-help, personal growth

Release Date: November 14, 2017

Do you feel like you missed the boat? Are you burnt out? Have your feet been dragging the sidewalk? Do you catch yourself dreaming of what could have been? Of if-only-I-had, or if-only-I-hadn’t? This book is for anyone sitting in the audience who should be on stage, anyone reading blogs who should also be writing them, anyone supporting ministries who should be leading them. It’s for the Christians who know there is a better life, but who are just stuck in the one they’re living.

Saved in the Jesus Movement of the seventies, Chris DuPré connected with countless Christians across the world. Yet too many of those Christians, Chris discovered, have years later lost the fire and stepped back from living out their faith. Why? Because they got stuck—stuck in rejection by others, stuck in fear of the unknown, stuck in loving a comfortable life, stuck in scores of similar ruts. What can set them free from their internal prisons? And what could Christians accomplish if we all just got unstuck?
