About D.M. Griffin

Our journey through life can be challenging and daunting at times. Our culture values reaching for the stars and making something “big” out of our life. We often strive to find worth in pursuing something extraordinary. But, what if God calls us to live extraordinary in the ordinary? How do we keep in step with His Spirit so that we are enabled to find contentment in the ordinary? Devoted Steps Ministry exists to equip women to enhance their relationship with Jesus through the daily disciplines of prayer, meditation and devotion. Utilizing the written word through prayer journeys in specific books of the bible, prayer challenges and devotionals, it is our hope that women can slow down in the midst of a hectic life in order to be intentional in developing a closer relationship with their Savior. It is our belief that an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ enables every person to live extraordinary in the ordinary.

The Storyteller: Follower Series: Andrew (The Follower Series Book 4) Jun 30, 2022

by D.M. Griffin

$7.99

Andrew lived as a dutifully devoted son. His father was a fisherman who shared a passion for telling stories with his youngest son. When tragedy thrust the family into the middle of their own drama, Andrew would begin to sense the calling of divine mystery. Rumors drew him to the Jordan River where a strange preacher spoke of the Messiah.
Andrew spent his younger years devouring Scripture, hoping for the return of Israel's true King. But the story was not unfolding according to expectations. When Andrew meets Yeshua, a Man designated 'The Lamb of God,' he is confronted with the erroneous filter of his own preconceived ideas. As he walks and learns from this controversial Rabbi, Andrew begins to see the Kingdom of heaven through the holy filter of parables spoken by the mouth of the Lord. Stories from his past mingle with the present in order to form an accurate understanding of what is to come.
How will Andrew be transformed as his own story is absorbed by a much grander narrative regarding the love of God? What will he do when the story God wrote for His people doesn't match anything they expected? Will Andrew's budding faith survive the plot twists and challenges presented as the Lord remakes him into a storyteller of the gospel?

He was the son of a simple fisherman with nothing of true worth. At least that was how he saw himself. James, the first-born son of Zebedee felt like a disappointment to his father and to the religious community he lived in. His desire for something more than a simple existence grew beyond his capacity to find contentment in an ordinary day. When God electrifies the ancient Judean landscape by sending His Son, James was divinely invited to follow this controversial Rabbi. Torn between his father's expectations and following a narrow path toward an unknown destiny, James chooses to face his fear and search for acceptance rather than stay where he is. The longer he follows Yeshua, the more dangerous things become. James fears he has nothing to offer the Son of God. After many failed attempts to battle his fear through traditional responses such as pride and positioning, James finally looks to Yeshua for help to truly see the Kingdom this Rabbi spoke of. Would the lightning strike of divine truth illuminate the dark landscape of James' soul with electrifying fearlessness? Would the desire for self-preservation give way to the honor of laying down his life in order to keep it for life eternal? Could James, a simple man, become a true apostle, walking faithfully in the steps of his Master to the end of the narrow path leading home? Book Two of the Follower Series

Two lives that were world's apart yet destined to be brought together for the purpose of fulfilling God's promise to His people. Salmon was only a boy when God rescued His people from slavery in Egypt. Yet, years of living out the consequences of unbelief consistently tested the growing man's faith in God's promises.

He wanted to believe that God would lead them to the Promised Land, where Salmon was sure a treasure awaited him if he had the patience to trust in God.

Did she really believe she could reclaim the promise given her as a child - the promise that she would be the mother of a great King?With enemy forces constantly pushing against them, how could these two people hold onto God's promise through the ravages of time? Would Salmon trust his God to lead grumbling people into the Promised Land? Would Rahab hold onto the cord of belief which was given her as girl even when a life of darkness tried to destroy her?

She was just an ordinary girl living in a small village of Ramah during the time of the judges. Her people had strayed far from pure devotion to God. Religious acts of duty became the doorway through which the corruption of the priestly line of Levi had begun. With everyone doing right in their own eyes, how long before Hannah's people experienced the full wrath of God for their continued disobedience? As a woman, Hannah doubted if she could ever make a difference for God. She settled her heart on marriage and family as was the custom of her day. Yet, a dream sparked hope inside of her that one day she would be the mother a great new leader in Israel - a man who would lead God's people back to the heart of devoted worship. When Hannah became betrothed to Elkanah, she thought her prophetic dreams would come to pass. Plagued by barrenness, tormented by her husband's wavering faith and constantly provoked by a second wife in the household, Hannah struggled to maintain belief that things would turn out as God had shown her. How does a woman walk the treacherous path of forgiveness, holding onto a thin thread of faith when everything, including time, seems to work against her? Would Hannah rise above her present suffering in order to root her faith in God and not herself? Would she resist taking matters into her own hands when everyone around seemed to be doing just that?
