Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book! The title and this beautiful cover drew me in and i was excited to read this book! I will be recommending this book to others for readers advisory.

We attend Crossroads at Eastside and Alli Patterson is one of our teaching pastors. We've heard many times so it was interesting to see her write a book and then lead a study of it. I read the book and attended the zoom meetings she led when it was published. Filled with many personal stories and discussing the lessons she has learned along the way, Alli uses the book to help us gain a better understanding of what it will take to tackle life and survive what it brings us.

So good and relatable! This book is Biblically-sound, honest, and encouraging. I loved the author’s personal stories and practical application. I have already gifted this book to several friends.

I received an ARC digital copy to review via Netgallery. This author was really transparent and gave stories from her own life to advise readers of how to stay standing. This was a great read and I was blessed by reading it. You will laugh, you will feel to pray, you will reflect and hopefully we will all work to implement so we too can stay standing.

How to Stay Standing

I am reviewing a copy of How to Start Standing through Revell and Netgalley:



This book points out that although we want to live a good life and be a "good person, but life can shift right under your feet and get messy and unpredictable. How do you stay strong and hopeful when you see cracks forming in your relationships, at work, or even in your own character? Is your faith strong enough to help you stand when life tries to knock you down?




In How to Stay Standing, Alli Patterson will shows readers how to build a faith that can withstand anything the world throws at it. Drawing insight from the parable of the wise and foolish builders, Alli helps you get honest about the foundation you are building on and offers three simple rhythms revealed from the words of Jesus come, hear, practice that will produce a faith that cannot be shaken and a life that stands firm.



You are aware that you are in the place in your life where something is just not working right now. But the next storm doesn't have to take you down. The waters may be rising, but Jesus left you the wisdom and practical help you need to stay standing.



I give How to Stay Standing five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
