Just for Tweens

My Name is Erin:

One Girl's Plan for Radical Faith

Maybe you've had a moment-a time in your history when God did something radical in your heart. Putting your faith and trust in Him certainly feels like taking a giant leap, but really it's just the beginning of the exciting, and-yes-radical journey that comes with agreeing to live as God calls you to.

What does being radical look like? In the Bible, the common characteristics are:

* They trusted God.

* They listened to God's voice and then obeyed-even when it cost them.

* Because of their faith, they lived lives that looked different from everyone else's.

That's a short list and a tall order, but basically it means you can be a radical too. There's nothing on that list that is impossible for you. There's nothing on that list that requires you to be older, or more financially stable, or to have a college degree. No matter who you are or where you live you can live a radical faith.

Meet Erin, she has learned practical ways to do just that.

My Thoughts

How can you spot a person with Radical Faith? What makes this person different?

Do you know anyone with Radical Faith? If so how do you feel about this person? How do other people react to this person?

Are you this person? Would you like to be a person with Radical Faith? You might have to remove a few things from your life in order to make time for prayer, reading your bible, journal and worshiping with song. Listen to God's voice and obey! Become a person with Radical Faith. This may come at a cost.

This is the perfect series for tweens. It is not over bearing or in your face. It is like getting advice from a close friend. A quiet friend with Radical Faith. She definitely has the plan! I am talking about the author, Erin Davis. She backs up her advice with scriptures, accounts of many people in the bible with Radical Faith.

I highly recommend this book.

About Book

A devotional journal inviting women to embrace the spiritual journey that awaits as they prepare for the high and holy calling of motherhood.

Expecting a baby is a wonderful and exciting time for a mother-to-be. She’ll experience many joys as she shares the news with family and friends, hears the baby’s heartbeat for the first time, and bonds emotionally while dreaming about the baby to come. She’ll also experience anxieties such as the trials of morning sickness, anticipating the process of labor, and wondering if she’ll be a good mother. They are all times to be remembered and treasured for a lifetime.

With Waiting in Wonder, readers are guided through the weeks of pregnancy with devotions for reflection and guided questions for pondering deeper into their experiences both spiritually and physically. Each devotion includes Scripture and journaling space for writing personal thoughts, prayers, dreams, even love letters to the growing baby. And when baby is born, mother will be spiritually blessed and hold a lifelong keepsake for rereading and reliving a truly wonder-filled time.

About Author

I’m Catherine, lover of dappled light, and Blue Ridge hues, of closing my days nestled in my husband’s prayers, and of mornings which bud with baby coos and the voice of my tousled red-headed calling for mama, (that name I wondered if I’d ever get to wear). I’m a collector of words, a cataloger of wonders, and a curator of grace stories.

My Thoughts

How do I describe this book other than if you are expecting and wish to share your experience with God and the child He will be gifting to you, this devotional journal will go from week one of until you hold your precious gift from God.

This journey will give you devotionals and scriptures to meditate on while also explaining the stages along with a peak into the growth of your child titled The Wonder Within. It even provides a place to write down your thoughts and interpretation of the devotional and scripture, not only to God but to your child. The verses are provided as memory verse in each devotional.

I was impressed at the way the book is set up and wish I had this book when I was expecting. I have five daughters and I am pretty sure they will not be blessing me with anymore than the already fifteen grandchildren. This year four of my granddaughters with be turning seventeen so I will definitely be recommending this book for their hope chest. I am sure they will not be needing this book for at least five or more years yet.

My favorite excerpt is page 162, Patient Partners, Patient Parents, and the verse provided:

Love is patient, love is kind.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

1 Corinthians 13:4

This is a wonderful Keepsake, shower gift and more.

I highly recommend this book.
