What Others Say About This Title:
When God blessed us with our son through adoption, I swore that was the most important thing I would teach him; God's Word, how to spot Jesus in every circumstance, and to allow himself to be moved to action by belief."Shine Your Light" hit all those points! I'm weeping, because so many mamas will read this book, and build up a Godly generation, for a thousand generations! I pray it hits them as hard as it hits me. It all starts in the car! At the breakfast table. Finding shoes and homework. The night before. In the womb. In the private recesses of our hearts, minds, homes and lives. To walk out of belief, in such a way that it comes back around and around, and you and your generations after, can see and say, every day, Jesus for the Win!!!
