I really enjoyed A Book of Pearlables. This book is encouraging and gives you practical guidelines to live by on a
daily basis. The language and flow of the book is powerful, direct, bold, and easy to apply to your life. A Book
of Pearlables can be used in so many ways. I am a Minister of the Gospel and I can see that this book can be
shared with our youth and young adults as well as our older members. A Book of Pearlables should be something
that you have in your daily devotion. Great material!!!

I received this great little book as a gift. It speaks so sweetly of the Lord, and is delightfully down-to-earth and an easy, uncomplicated read. I was reminded again through it that my quiet times have not been quiet enough. I tend to think, pray in tongues or do intercession, read, write, listen to worship with words, etc basically get busy with doing things, and forget to just sit still in the quiet with no distractions and simply focus on Him and His beauty and greatness. If you are searching for for love, for meaning, for growth, for peace, for purpose, or in other words, just wanting to polish up your spiritual walk in order to live in a deeper relationship with God, you will find this book is a wonderful collection of personal stories plus simple truths and reminders. I loved it!

As a spiritual author myself, I am often praised by my readers for lifting up their spirits.  But who is going to lift me up when I have allowed life to get me down?  Victoria and Joel Osteen  thats who!  I find this latest book by an Osteen to be particularly inspiring, and full of practical advice on how to live a happier more fulfilling life.  Sure, Victorias slant is towards women.  But to twist around an old advertising slogan for Secret Deodorant: Its made for a woman, but strong enough for a man.  Thank God  literally  for this book!

I was surprisingly captivated while reading this beautiful book. There are examples and practical suggestions on how to implement the strategies and principles outlined in this book. Gina's spiritual gifts came through, along with her humanness, and her willingness to experience, learn, and grow from both the pains and joys of life. What is also communicated is her warm and loving desire to help others do the same, and to help people trust in the process of life, and all the spiritual help that is available to everyone.

Spiritual development is rarely convenient. Polly's beautiful book makes you almost glad about that. Dip into this one every time you need a quick pick-me-up or a nice long soak. Great stuff - and highly practical.

Moving, practical, prayerful guide.  Am still using this book daily, in small readings as a guide to spiritual growth.  More than met my expectations!  Something that I expect to return to again and again.  Written in a manner that immediately created both hope and trust.

This is an extremely wonderful book on spirituality. It is in the form of questions and answers. It has answered all my spiritual questions. The answers are explained in a very clear, simple and practical way. The author has given many examples and quotes to reinforce our understanding.

I liked this book so much that I have gifted it to a lot of relatives and friends so that they can also benefit from it.  After reading the book, some of my friends have in turn bought more copies of this book to gift it to others.

The contents beautifully classify the questions and put them under various topics.
So they provide the reader with the opportunity to either go directly to the topic of their choice or read the book entirely.

This book is a practical resource covering every possible angle on prayer. Bill Thrasher writes as a teacher, and I appreciate his thorough approach, humble attitude, and worshipful standpoint.

Featuring 30 brief chapters perfect for daily reflection, this book could be used as a one-month prayer life restart manual. The book is written with sound theology and strong Bible emphasis, and it is enlivened with many stories from Bills life, the lives of his friends, and stories of great Christians in history.

These are my top ten favorite practical takeaways from the book:

I can give God the first hour of the day, the first day of the week, and the first few days of every year in prayer, and he will completely transform my life. (Chapter 1)
Prayer is helplessness plus faith. (Chapter 1)
I need to see my temptations as a prompt for prayer. (Chapter 4)
I can learn how to pray without criticizing. (Chapter 5)
Our society is addicted to noise, and a fruitful prayer life requires a quiet space. (Chapter 7)
I can gain comfort by knowing Jesus better in prayer. (Chapter 10)
Daily prayer can lead to soul happiness. (Chapter 11)
Scripture meditation can enhance my prayer life. (Chapter 11)
The Bible shows me how to pray lovingly for unsaved people. (Chapter 11)
Every temptation toward anxiety is a call to pray. (Chapter 25)
I need to read this book again to gain all the components I need for a revolutionized prayer life. Since its a compact, easy read, I plan to go through it one chapter at a time for the next 30 days and record one action step per chapter.

A Journey to Victorious Praying is leading me closer to God, giving me greater peace, and helping me love other people through a renewed prayer life.

Building on the power and privilege of Prayer, the author takes
the next step and elaborates on Jesus's teaching of His vineyard.
To live the truly abundant Kingdom life of love, peace, joy and the fruit of the Spirit, one must be abiding in the vine of
Christ where the flow of the Holy Spirit can fill the life of
the believer.
This book makes living in the Spirit very practical and gives
powerful illustrations about cultivating and harvesting grapes
from healthy vines in the lives of those who follow Jesus' vineyard principles.
Important concepts like Planting, Pruning, Perseverence, and
Purity flesh out the secrets of the vine. When we realize our
Heavenly Father is the Gardener/Caretaker, Christ is the Vine
and we are but branches, we realize the Lord will flow the life
sap of the Spirit through us to produce abundant quality and
quantity fruit to His Glory as we remain in His Word.
Blessed are they who hear the Word of God and keep it!
Do not be filled with spirits, but be being filled with the Spirit!

Ms. Vaughn does an amazing job in displaying the heart of a woman in her writing.  This book helps anyone who is believing and trusting God for a spouse become equipped and prepared for the arrival of that blessing. Sometimes we don't have it all together...and that's ok, we are human. The beauty emerges when we can be honest with ourselves about our shortcomings versus our growth. That's when we can truly be prepared  for answered prayer. Ms. Vaughn eloquently encourages that growth through the practical reminders of self -care found in this book. Its such a good read, you"ll be touched by its genuiness and beauty!

My brother, a very prayerful pastor, recommended this book.  It contains a practical approach to prayer that is not formulaic.  I strongly encourage believers to read this and realize that our heavenly Father is so accessible through His Son, Jesus.

I have given this book to numerous people and will continue to do so.

I love this! I have found these principles by trial and error and intuiting them. This book gives a language to these things I've come to depend on so fiercely! If you don't know how to hear from God or how to feel His presence, this is very practical. Thank you so much for writing this timely message!
