My Soul's Journey: Becoming Who God Wants Me to Be [Spiral-bound]

Carol Kent (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 2002

Did you know God has a plan for you?

God formed you to play an essential role in the story He’s been writing ever since He first created the universe. Maybe you’ve wondered if your role is even important. But it is!

In My Soul’s Journey, authors Carol Kent and Karen Lee-Thorp encourage you to use journaling to discover who you are in Christ. As a guided journal, My Soul’s Journey uses the combination of encouraging text, thought-provoking questions, and inspiring topic ideas as a springboard for you to put your deepest thoughts and feelings down on paper. And if writing’s not your style, you can draw your feelings or cut out pictures from magazines and paste them in.

By recording experiences from your past, as well as hopes and desires for your future, you’ll develop a better idea of who God wants you to be. And you’ll find the greatest joy is using what you’ve learned to help others become who God wants them to be!

Founder of Speak Up With Confidence (a communications training seminar), Speak Up Speaker Services (a speakers bureau), and Speak Up for Hope (a prison ministry), Carol is an expert on public speaking, on writing, and on encouraging people to hold on to hope when life's circumstances turn out differently from their dreams.

Carol has spoken internationally in South Africa, Germany, Bulgaria, China, Korea, Hong Kong, Guatemala, Mexico, and Canada. She regularly appears on a wide variety of nationally syndicated radio and television broadcasts.

She entered the public eye with the story of her only son's imprisonment for murder, a journey she shared in the powerful book, When I Lay My Isaac Down. This painful experience has led Carol and her husband, Gene, down a long road of sacrifice and redemption.

Carol holds a master's degree in communication arts and a bachelor's degree in speech education. Her bestselling books include: A New Kind of Normal (starred review in Publishers Weekly), When I Lay My Isaac Down (winner of Christian Retailers Choice Award), Becoming a Woman of Influence, Mothers Have Angel Wings, Secret Longings of the Heart, Tame Your Fears, Speak Up With Confidence, and Detours, Tow Trucks, and Angels in Disguise (all NavPress).

Her new book, Between a Rock and a Grace Place, will be released by Zondervan in October. This book is the ongoing story of her journey with her son and it includes riveting letters he wrote from behind the razor wire of a maximum security prison. It also addresses the felt needs of people who hurt, and instills a surprisingly new way of thinking, leaving readers irresistibly drawn to see God's astonishing "grace places" in the middle of their roadblocks.

This review is from: My Soul's Journey: Becoming Who God Wants Me to Be (Spiral-bound)

This Journal book helps us look at our lives and helps us to ask the questions that can help heal.

It helps connect us in a very spirtual manner with God, by opening a dialoge upon the pages.

Wonderful gift Idea for anyone with a need to heal. Very creative and beautiful pictures.
