When You Can't Find Hope and Peace . . .


Linda Evans Shepherd, author of the new book When You Can't Find God (Baker Publishing Group), is a woman who knows pain and suffering and disappointment first-hand. Yet in all the years I've known her, she continues to choose joy. If you are stuck in the mire of life, I hope you will purchase a copy of her book. Real-life examples, practical prayer, and the word of God will lift you up and help you "ignite the power of His presence" as the subtitle promises. I particularly liked the side-bars throughout the pages, each one offering a tid-bit of hope and inspiration. Here's one I especially liked."Don't let the enemy convince you to pick up the invoice for your past mistakes. You owe nothing. Jesus already paid the bill."
