My friend, Chrissie Tomlinson, has written a terrific book. Please check out Soul Anchors! Chrissie is a committed Christian woman who loves Jesus. I am excited for her as she travels on this journey with her book.
With in-depth instruction and personal application guides this Bible study will guide you through an examination of four soul anchors that we have through our relationship with Jesus Christ. These anchors — love, truth, peace, and freedom — are unchangeable despite the circumstances, despite our feelings, and in spite of all the obstacles that are thrown into our paths.
Chrissie Tomlinson in her own words — My education includes degrees in Christian Education, Biblical Counseling, and Organizational Leadership. But most of my real schooling has come from being on the front lines of ministry. I have served in the ministry as Christian school educator, administrator, counselor, and most recently served as Director of Education and Preschool at a Southern Baptist church in Middle Georgia. Currently, I am employed by the USAF, and work as a contract specialist.
In my spare time, I am actively serving at my church, First Baptist Perry, Georgia, and stay busy with friends and family. I enjoy reading, knitting, and cooking, and, of course, writing.
I’m thinking if this book will help me understand God’s Word as it relates to me, then I need this book. I’m struggling with my faith and want to be close to God. I am the only one in my family who wants this relationship and without people to talk to and walk this journey with, I’m finding I’m taking more steps backward than forward. I hope this wasn’t too much to post.
Your posts are never too long. I haven’t read this book yet, but I know the author and her heart. I think it will be worth it to give it a look.
It is difficult when you feel like you are going it alone. Please know that I will pray for you to come closer to God and that you will be able to feel His presence in your life.
God bless you!
Prayer is so powerful. Thank you for yours! Isn’t it amazing how God puts us in the right places at the time someone needs us the most?
Amazing indeed! And very humbling. I view my blog as a ministry, but am always amazed that someone can be encouraged by what I do. Hope that Chrissie’s book will be of help as well.
Hi Danielle, I can’t imagine how difficult your struggle must be. In Soul Anchors I really tried to get back to what the basics of a life of faith is all about, and I hope that it will be encouraging for you. You can order the book on Amazon, but I sell it a little cheaper on my blog- thisroadhome.com.
God bless you as you walk with Jesus. He will always honor our sincere desire and efforts to be close to Him.
Thanks Chrissie! I am going to edit the post to include your blog.
