Where God Finds You By Anita Higman GIVEAWAY!


In forty devotional tales, Where God Finds You breathes new life into ancient Bible characters. Live with and learn about more than forty Bible men and women, including the wife of Pontius Pilate, Esther, John the Baptist, Delilah, Lazarus, and Mary Magdalene.

Through reflection on Scripture and prayer, you’ll discover a place in each of these lives of vulnerability, tenderness, truth, and love—a place where you can find God . . . and where God finds you.

Where God Finds You is unique among women’s devotional books in that it brings dozens of men and women of the Bible to life through dramatic short stories, connects biblical truths to today’s culture, and offers readers an opportunity to reflect on what they’ve learned. Each devotion features:

• A dramatic retelling of Scripture that allows the reader to crawl into the pages of the Bible.
• The Story from God's Word: a quote or paraphrase of the applicable Bible passage in a reader-friendly version.
• The Story—From Then to Now: a personal reflection from the author to help link the passage to life today.
• The Story—Questions to Think About: prompts for personal reflection or group discussion that lead to practical application.

I just reviewed Anita's Christmas book not to long ago and I loved it. So when I got the chance to review her new devotional  I jumped on it.
I am so glad that I reviewed this book it was so encouraging.  I read one devotion a day and find that I get so much out of it, it is as if you are pulled into Bible and right there with the people of the Bible.
This is highly recommended by me and I think that it would make a fantastic gift also.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher

  7. Sounds great, Mary! I have a book that I've used for several years, and actually have made several quilt blocks to go along with "Women of the Bible" by Ann Spangler and Jean Syswerda, authors from my neighborhood. If this book is anything like it, I'm sure it would be an excellent learning tool for grasping stories from the Bible.
