Book Feature Thursday

For today's book feature, I'd like to introduce you to a book that's closer to my heart than many of the books I've feature before. That's because I wrote one of the chapters! Chicken Soup for the Soul: Devotional Stories for Mothers just hit the shelves this week. This book would make a great gift.

There are 101 stories in the book, and it's divided into themes which makes it easy to find a devotional that fits what the reader is going through. Or, it could be used as a daily devotional book, going cover to cover over several months. Each devotional story includes a prayer at the end and a theme scripture verse. The foreword to the book is written by Lisa Whelchel (of Facts of Life and Women of Faith fame) who says, "this devotional is just what the doctor ordered. It is tailor-made for you at this busy season of your life."

Themes include:

• Treasured Moments
• God's Guiding Hand
• Loving Through the Years
• In the Beginning
• Lessons from our Kids
• Comfort Through Prayer
• Help from Above
• Surrendering Our Worries
• Whispers of Wisdom
• Giving Them Wings
• Celebrating Our Families
