Reflections on Abounding Faith’s 1st Book Social!

I’m so grateful to God that Abounding Faith’s very 1st Book Social was such a blessing! We had such a sweet time of fellowship. The guests told me their favorite part of the event was the discussion time when they got to hear others share about their experiences related to the topic of Waiting on God Well.

I’m delighted that the event was a safe place where people could share their thoughts and encourage one another! That was my hope for this event. It was sweet to interact with my readers during the group discussion and to share a short encouraging word with them.

I appreciate all the help from my wonderful volunteers pictured below. My Mom was also a tremendous help, as usual! Many thanks to my friends at Open Bible Church International for once again opening up their doors to us.

We not only had a great group discussion and prayer time, but there were also special giveaways for guests. I’m grateful to my friends and Our Daily Bread for providing the Hope devotionals and my friends at TBN NY for providing the books pictured below.

Abounding Faith’s Book Social also included yummy treats and a chance to buy signed copies of Waiting on God Well, Abounding Faith and Crossing Your Jordan River.

This was the third and most likely the final event I’m hosting this year, but fret not! I’m already praying and planning for next year. I’m looking forward to having more Book Socials, so please stay tuned!

Did you know that you can host your own Abounding Faith Book Social with your friends, church, small group, women’s ministry or book club? You can get all the info by clicking here.

Whether you read Waiting on God Well, Abounding Faith and Crossing Your Jordan River (available on Amazon) on your own or with a group, I pray you’re blessed and encouraged to trust God and to live your God-given dreams! God is Faithful!

Here’s what a few readers are saying about Waiting on God Well:

  • Waiting on God Well was quite insightful and encouraging. It gave some very practical tools that can help us continue waiting on the Lord and not give up!”  – Pastor Lillian Gutierrez, Love Gospel Assembly
  • Waiting on God Well is a good and simple read with excellent scriptural references/meditation and (my favorite), the action steps. They’re so HELPFUL! I feel that women, men or anyone who’s willing to seek God’s guidance can benefit from you book.” – Manni Lee, Associate Executive Director, Women of Wonder (WOW)
  • Waiting on God Well gave me time to address a deep prayer request of my heart I had sort of ‘buried.” I took your book on a plane trip, underlined and prayed my way thru, even journaling some. Thank you for your encouragement!” – Anonymous

If you can’t finish the book in time, no worries. Come anyway and be blessed by the fellowship and the short encouraging word I’ll be sharing!

First Look at Abounding Faith’s New “NY Blessings” Collection!

I’m excited to share the latest additions to Abounding Faith’s online store! I hope the new “NY Blessings” collection will inspire you as you live by Abounding Faith!

The “NY Blessings” collection includes sporty T-shirts that are great to wear on group outreaches or outings. The motivational mug and journal are perfect for your quiet times. The tote bag, magnet and keychain make great gifts for any occasion.

I’ve used the term “NY Blessings” for some time now, but the ideas for these designs only came together this summer.

It’s nice to take a break sometimes from creating with words to create with images. It’s as if the more I create and pour out, the more the Lord fills me with new ideas. Glory!

Whether I’m writing, speaking or designing, I hope whatever the Lord allows me to create inspires you to live your God-given dreams and reminds you that God is Good!

If you’d like to see your state represented in a similar design, please let me know and I will consider adding a few items to the online store. For now, I hope you like the “NY Blessings” collection. May it encourage you and your friends as you go out to be a blessing and get blessed! I’d love to see photos of you and whichever items you choose to buy.

Thanks so much for your support! Your support of Abounding Faith’s online store, books, events and more help me to continue encouraging others on their faith journey. Blessings!

What’s New at Abounding Faith?

July has been an interesting mix of enjoying the present, reflecting on the past, and preparing for what’s next.

It’s been a delight to be part of the small group of my friends who are studying Crossing Your Jordan River! It’s surreal to hear the group take turns reading the book out loud. I’m touched to hear how the book is blessing them. Some of the words used to describe the book are “powerful” and “challenging” and the questions at the end of the chapter were described as being “insightful.” At the end of our last meeting, one of the members said he couldn’t wait to read the next chapter. Glory to God!

There are currently three local groups studying my books. I hope Crossing Your Jordan River, Waiting on God Well, and Abounding Faith are on your summer reading list!

I’ve been so blessed by the positive feedback I’ve gotten from my current books that I’m inspired to keep writing. I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve started drafting my fourth book! This book will include my testimony and stories about my adventures on five short-term missions trips, multiple outreaches in New York City, and various other travels and experiences. God is so good!

I’m also planning my next event and will be adding more inspirational items to Abounding Faith’s online store.

I’m grateful that you’re on this journey with me. I appreciate all your encouragement and support. I hope you will continue to tell others about Abounding Faith’s books, online store, YouTube channel and more. Together we can continue to encourage people to live their God-given dreams!

If you’re feeling stuck on your journey to living your God-given dreams, I’d be delighted to be your Life Coach. And if your dream is to honor God by writing a book, you can learn more about my Book Writing Coaching program and my Book Writing Strategy Call.

I look forward to sharing more updates with you soon.

I pray you have a blessed rest of the summer!

Crossing Your Jordan River Book – Update!

I’d like to take a moment to thank all of my Crossing Your Jordan River readers and to share about some of the doors the Lord is opening for my trio of books.

I’m delighted to share that pre-signed copies of Crossing Your Jordan River, Waiting on God Well, and Abounding Faith are now available in a bookstore that just opened in Lomita, CA. It’s a blessing to know that my books are on the West Coast. Glory to God! I hope you’ll tell your California friends about Pipe & Thimble Bookstore. If you swing by the store, I’d love to see pics!

I’m also excited to share that a few of my local friends are going to start studying Crossing Your Jordan River tonight. God is so Good! I’m honored and humbled. As I’m writing my books, I’m never quite sure who is going to read them. And when I’m writing the questions at the end of each chapter, I can envision groups studying the books together but I never know who will be in those groups. I’m grateful that I get to join my friends as they launch out on their faith journey together.

I’m also touched to know that my friends at Woodcrest Nursing Home and Rehab center are also studying Crossing Your Jordan River.

As you can tell, my readers are special to me. I love seeing photos of my readers. Here are just a few:

If my books have been a blessing to you, please feel free to snap a pic with your book and email it to me at info@AboundingFaith.com or post it on Abounding Faith’s Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram page. Kind and short Amazon reviews are also always appreciated.

I look forward to sharing more updates with you! Please stay tuned for more info about Abounding Faith’s fall event(s).

In the meantime, be sure to pick up copies of Crossing Your Jordan River, Waiting on God Well, and Abounding Faith in print or on Kindle on Amazon and tell your friends and small group or book club members about the trio. Once you all have your copies, why not consider hosting an Abounding Faith Book Social this summer? You can learn more about Abounding Faith Book Socials here.

Thanks for all of your support and encouragement! Blessings to you as you dare to live your God-given dreams and wait on God to fulfill His promises to you!
