This review is from: Wake up Laughing: Offbeat Devotions for the Unconventional Woman (Mass Market Paperback)

I really enjoyed each little devotional. This is a real Christian woman, with real problems, just like the rest of us. She uses humor, but there is also a very important lesson to be learned from each one. It is nice, because you can pick it up and read one devotion while waiting for an appointment, etc., since they are each about 3 pages long. I found myself laughing and being touched at the same time by the Holy Spirit. Great book!

Thank God for Rachel St. John-Gilbert! This devotional couldn't be more down to earth. It's like a favorite pair of shoes. I'm so glad that there is at least one Christian writer who isn't totally pious and trying to guilt trip me. My favorite is Chapter 13... Living Large. Every woman needs a bit of Rachel in her life!
