This book of devotions allows you to look at your assumptions and spend time with God with scripture in three popular translations (ESV, NIV and the NBLA in Spanish). Follow prayers and exercises to still yourself and come into His presence as you enter into conversation with the Lord. Yvette Walker's testimony drives this book:...

Life can be messy. Life can be difficult. Life can be painful. It's part of being human. Experiencing the struggles in life, in a way, reminds us we are alive. Yet through these struggles and often times pain, we can find beauty once again. For God is able to take our deepest disappointment and use it for His greatest good. The "Pearls of Wisdom" in this book were born out of pain and hurt, both physical and emotional. There were questions, doubts, and many tears. There was also restoration, healing, and a new understanding of God's grace. Whether you are currently enduring...

Family. It’s where we learn about relationships, communication, boundaries, and love. It is our first look into our identity and who we are, and who we’ll grow to be. This delicate, living inception from God knows no demographic boundary, blood type, or specific gene. It can consist of any combination of parents and children, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, and even close friends. Deep Roots is designed to set aside time once a week to intentionally meet, read together, and discuss God’s truth as a family. My prayer is that you will grow stronger, not only as a family...

Depending on God amid the noise, confusion, and troubles around you lands on a solid ground in Him and there is nothing in this world that can defeat you or take away your peace. To affirm God’s goodness amidst difficult times is as much an act of worship as it is a sign of integrity. Those who have trusted in Christ Jesus for salvation were never meant to live defeated, despairing, boxed-in, unhappy lives. In Romans 5:17, Paul writes that the “abundance of grace” we have received and receive every day, along with the gift of righteousness, enables us to “reign...

Ecclesiastes 3:11 tells us, "He has made everything beautiful in its time.” Everything—which includes you! Do you have trouble believing that? If so, you’re not alone. As girls and women, it's easy to become insecure about our appearance when we're bombarded with images depicting "perfection.” Comparison becomes part of our days and we struggle to believe that we are enough. Unfortunately for most, this begins at a young age and low self-esteem is carried into adulthood. Adapted from the message Jennifer has taught to countless girls and women, ...
