Book Review

I'm so appreciative of receiving this timely book. I have found the scriptures within to be beneficial to one's peace of mind while journeying through life's ups and downs. The best solution for carrying any kind of tension that life throws at us is to discover His peace and calm from within. I haven't met anyone who escapes life's storms totally, so when the waves of stress, conflict, illness, and misfortune come our way, we can exchange our cares for His calm. This is one of the best books written by my favorite author. Practicing gratitude and getting rid of guilt are two special chapters that you will want to use the tools Max shares with us. The beautiful glossy photos of nature scenes reveal peace and comfort to us and excite a wonderment of what heaven will be like. The scriptures are so encouraging as we walk together with Him through many hard trials. He gives us the victory and Max show us what it looks like to manage our fears and worries. I love the book and use its references often with several ministries at our church. The passages are for everyone who wants to be free from the worries that weigh us down. A must read and a great gift for friends!

5/5 stars! Highly recommend!

How To Fix a Broken Record: Book Review

How To Fix A Broken Record: LadyD Books






Book Description

Your soul holds a massive record collection: melodies, rhythms, and bass lines. Memories that ask you to dance and memories that haunt you in a minor key. Lies that become soundtracks to your days while truths play too softly to be heard.
Spoken word poet Amena Brown’s broken records played messages about how she wasn’t worthy to be loved. How to Fix a Broken Record chronicles her journey of healing as she’s allowed the music of God’s love to replace the scratchy taunts of her past. From bad dates to marriage lessons at Waffle House, from learning to love her hair to learning to love an unexpected season of life, from discovering the power of saying no and the freedom to say yes, Amena offers keep-it-real stories your soul can relate to.
The hurtful words of others and the failures of your past often determine what record you play the most in your mind. Those painful repetitions can become loud at the most inopportune time, keeping you from speaking up, pursuing your dreams, and growing closer to God.
Recognize the negative messages that play on repeat every day in your mind. Learn how to replace them with the truth that you are a beloved child of God. And discover how to laugh along the way as you find new joy in the beautiful music of your life.

Book Review

Amena Brown's journey of accepting herself and knowing who she is in Christ is a good, inspirational read. A few chapters like 'Searching for the Groove' and "Finding Your Voice' spoke to me. I felt like the author was conversing with her readers on real life-changing experiences. For those seeking some healing and breakthrough answers, persevere through the pages on how to fix a broken record.
