In her book, she outlines twelve spiritual practices to strengthen and enrich our walk with God.

His message is approachable and oh so relevant for our daily lives, whether we are in ministry or pursuing our passions elsewhere. Since I’m not in full-time ministry, I’ll be sharing some of the practical personal takeaways that stood out to me as a writer and educator. Keep reading to find out how you…
