More About the Author

'We walk by faith and not by sight.' 2 Corinthians 5:7 'It is well with my soul.' For Jennifer Rothschild, these words are much more than the lyrics from a familiar hymn; they represent a foundation upon which many life lessons have been learned in the dark. At the young age of fifteen, Jennifer was diagnosed with a rare, degenerative eye disease that would eventually steal her sight. It was more than a turning point for the Miami, Fl, native. Her dreams of becoming a commercial artist and cartoonist faded. Words and music have replaced her canvas and palette for more than 25 years. Known for her substance, and a down-to-earth style, Jennifer weaves together colorful illustrations, universal principles, and music to help audiences find contentment, walk with endurance, and celebrate the ordinary. Through her signature wit and poignant story-telling, audiences are prompted to look beyond their circumstances to find unique 'gifts,' in unusual packaging. At the young age of fifteen, Jennifer was diagnosed with a rare, degenerative eye disease that would eventually steal her sight. It was more than a turning point for the Miami, Fl, native. Her dreams of becoming a commercial artist and cartoonist faded. Words and music have replaced her canvas and palette for more than 25 years. Jennifer has taken her message of encouragement across the country speaking at national and regional gatherings of busy professionals, dedicated volunteers, salt-of-the-earth farmers, impressionable youth, and overwhelmed moms and dads. Jennifer has been a featured speaker for the Women of Faith arena events, and has teamed up with Beth Moore to lead LifeWay's National Women's Conferences. Thousands have come away with a new vision for their work, their family, and their future. Jennifer is the author of Fresh Grounded Faith (2008), Self Talk, Soul Talk (2008), Lessons I Learned in the Light (July 2006) Fingerprints of God (Multnomah, 2005), and Lessons I Learned in the Dark (Multnomah, 2002), and two best-selling DVD-enhanced bible studies, Walking by Faith (LifeWay, 2003) and Fingerprints of God (LifeWay, 2005). Her most recent study is Me, Myself and Lies: A Thought-Closet Makeover (Lifeway 2009) and is based on her popular book Self Talk, Soul Talk. In addition to her writing and speaking ministry, Jennifer is an accomplished songwriter and recording artist, with six albums to her credit including Walking by Faith: The Music Captured Live, Along the Way, and others. Her life story and message has been the cover story of numerous national publications including Virtue magazine, Becoming Family magazine, HomeLife magazine, and others. She's been interviewed on national TV and radio programs including The Chuck and Jenni Show, Hour of Power, Life Today, Family Life Radio, TBN, and others. Jennifer is also founder and publisher of the popular online magazine, WomensMinistry.NET. She resides in Springfield, Missouri with her husband of 24 years, Dr. Philip Rothschild, and their two sons, Clayton and Connor. She enjoys nature walks, visits to theme parks, and riding a bicycle built for two. She got a real charge singing the national anthem for the Atlanta Braves and bungee-jumping from seven and a half stories.

5.0 out of 5 stars Discovery of Self and Opportunity to Change the Way You Think, July 29, 2009

LifeVerse "Christine" (California, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Me, Myself, & Lies: A Thought-Closet Makeover (Bible Study Workbook) (Paperback)

This book captured my attention when it was selected by Beth Moore for the 2009 Summer Bible Study. I purchased seven copies and found some friends to join me in the study. Since I also wrote a blog about the book [...] I found myself going deeper into my faith and inside my own thought closet. The study began with a gentle "spring cleaning" of my thoughts and ended with a "wardrobe makeover." I was shocked to learn about the thoughts that were driving my decisions and thoughts that were not centered around God. The book showed me the thoughts behind my lukewarm faith and gave the tools I needed to claim a burning faith for God. I recommend this book for women who feel something is wrong in their lives, but cannot center on the root of their problems. The book is a discovery of self and a transformation towards faith centered thinking. Buy it today and refresh your thought closet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every woman should read this book., August 28, 2009

Just a woman of God (Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Me, Myself, & Lies: A Thought-Closet Makeover (Bible Study Workbook) (Paperback)

We women are so guilty of "not thinking about what we're thinking about." This book helped me to focus on the frequently destructive thoughts rambling around in my mind--and to replace those thoughts with God's truth. I am so thankful I went through this workbook with a study group from my church. It has changed me for the better. "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he."

This review is from: Me, Myself, & Lies: A Thought-Closet Makeover (Bible Study Workbook) (Paperback)

At first glance, this seems like a simple Bible study. However, as you work through the chapters and are forced to think about what you think about...all I can say is OUCH. Life changing, enlightening, painful and joyous. I highly recommend the study, but only if you are prepared to be honest with yourself !
