I’m so excited for you! The first book is thrilling, but when the first book is a book of this caliber with the kinds of words you’ve written that will bless so many lives, the excitement is rich with spiritual longing to help and to teach others. I’m so happy for you! I can’t wait for my copy to arrive!
Dear Melinda. You have been so encouraging throughout the process of my writing the book. I have deeply appreciated your generous support and enthusiasm. I have been blessed by it. I have also been blessed to get to know you through social media and to call you friend. You are such a genuine, kind, caring person of faith who lives out of a generous and abundant love; a love that is big enough to celebrate and to encourage others. A love that seeks to learn and understand what others are experiencing and are walking through. A love that is big enough to admit there is more to learn and more to understand. I have followed and watched you these last weeks, seeing how you have researched and studied and listened, so that you can better understand all that Black Lives Matter means. You deeply care about others. You are a gem.
Congratulations, Anne! This will be a much needed resource of God’s truth, hope and comfort at such a time as this. May God bless you and your ministry!
Melissa, thanks for your encouraging comments. I pray that hearts will be changed and more will be able to process their suffering in healthy ways, be willing to enter into suffering and offer consolation to others in their adversity, and come away with a more robust theology of suffering. Blessings to you too dear Melissa.
Congratulations!
Thanks Stephen!
