The One Year Book of Inspiration for Girlfriends: Juggling Not-So-Perfect, Often-Crazy, but Gloriously Real Lives (One Year Books)

If you’re living a perfect, charmed life . . . well, then this book isn’t going to be for you. But if, like the rest of us, you are at times broken, confused, lonely, or scared—if you’re struggling with problems that you think “good Christians” don’t have—then welcome, girlfriend, and pull up a chair! This quirky, friendly, and gut-honest devotional comes straight from the heart of Ellen Miller (CEO, marketing executive, mom, and unapologetic “glorious mess”). Despite the serious struggles she’s faced, Ellen today lives a life of profound joy, and The One Year Book of Inspiration contains 365 days worth of the principles and philosophies that have gotten her there. You’ll find there’s no subject she’s afraid to tackle! Her quick, daily doses of encouragement will make you laugh, give you something to look forward to each day, help you to stay (somewhat!) sane … and remind you that you’re never alone.

Encouraging, Entertaining and Enlightening!

Relax and enjoy Ellen Miller's humor, honesty and wisdom. This book is a delight to read. After each morning of reading a daily passage, I'd find myself full of renewed vigor for life and embrace all the day had to offer. Ellen leads us to a final (and joy-filled) conclusion: God gave us the free will to decide how we deal with life's struggles. We can choose to live an authentic life full of joy even in the midst of struggles. I love this book for so many reasons and have shared it with many of my girlfriends. It is a book that truly touches the heart.
