One Thousand Gifts-The Book!!

If you have read this blog long enough, you will know I am a huge fan of Ann Voskamp and her blog–The Holy Experience.

I was so excited when I heard she was writing a book. I ordered it from last week Amazon, it arrived in two days, and I am reading it through for the second time. I can’t tell you how much I love this book! I feel it changing me already. It is called:

“One Thousand Gifts”

–a dare to LIVE FULLY right where you are.

It is the perfect book for me to chew on as I am entering in the (hopefully) final phase of this cancer fight-6 weeks of radiation. After fighting cancer, I have a huge desire to fully live. This book is giving me an idea of just how to do that.

I. Love. It.

I want to buy a copy for every one of my friends!!
It is that good..

Here is what the back cover of the book says:

One Thousand Gifts beckons you to leave the parched ground of pride, fear, and white-knuckle control and abandon yourself to the God who overflows your cup. As Ann Voskamp invites you into her own moments of grace, she gently teaches you how to biblically lament loss, turning pain into poetry; intentionally embrace a lifestyle of radical gratitude/ and slow down and catch God in the moment.

Please take a peak at this awesome video. It speaks my heart. It puts into words all the things that this battle for my life has caused me to think about, to ponder.

If you are interested in the book, you can order it at Amazon, where it is doing quite well! It has 5 stars and 215 reviews…I’m not alone in my praise of this book!
