Description

“What is God doing in and through you?” It’s a question we all should ask ourselves. And when Billie Jauss asked herself that question, it sent her on a spiritual journey that made her question the stagnant nature of her faith—and the reasons behind it. In Making Room, she shares her discoveries and helps each of us dig deeper toward a refreshed and renewed faith, one in which the distractions of life are put into perspective and we allow God to do more with us and through us. As Paul writes in Ephesians, God can do immeasurably more in our lives than we could think or imagine. Through Making Room, discover all the meaningful life moments that God has for you to glorify Him.”

What a great book, and yes it is aimed at Ladies but there is so much for us Guys as well so relax no one need know, you will find good sound spiritual advice and guidance. Billie Jauss book and life is testament to a lifestyle that she openly admits to mistakes having been made and who hasn't? So she lets GOD use them to lead her plus you me into life changing steps that effect those around us from our home to those we live near and meet everyday or through our everyday lives.

Making Room: Doing Less So God Can Do More by Billie Jauss 5 ☆’s

Thank you to New Hope Publishing for providing me with a free copy of this book for review purposes. All opinions are my own.

I am a reader that likes to keep my books in pristine condition – even e-books. I do not bend covers or pages. You will find no marking or highlighting if you were to ever look in my books. I like the ‘clean’ look. I knew this book would be good for my soul the moment I started highlighting the e-book.

Jauss starts right into what caused her to reevaluate her relationship with God, and what she did to make it better. She doesn’t only provide her story but includes helpful and insightful wisdom for her readers. This book is open and honest. It is convicting and challenging. Not only did I experience parts of her journey, this book made me pause and evaluate where I am in my relationship with God.

Woven throughout the novel was Biblical wisdom. Jauss heavily relies on the word of God to help show how and why it is best to do less so God can do more. Scripture is repeated. Sometimes, repetition in a novel can be redundant – but not in this case. The repetition helps remind the reader of God and His attributes and promises.

If you’ve ever felt like spending time with God is something that can be checked off a to-do list – read this book. If you feel like life is too busy and there is not enough time in one day for Jesus – read this book. If you feel like you are in control, and God isn’t – read this book. Seriously, even if none of the scenarios listed apply, still read this book. It is refreshing to the soul.

There’s one tiny hangup, this book doesn’t release until January 15, 2018. But don’t fret, it is available for pre-order.
