Allison Bottke has a mission to share God's good news with all that choose to rely on Him. God Allows U-Turns for Women: The Choices We Make Change the Story of Our Life is a wonderful compilation of personal stories shared by many women from the United States and Canada.
Each chapter contains a devotional reading to prepare the reader for God's grace and to help establish their faith in His goodness and mercy.
The eight chapters in the book focus on: Forgiveness, Choosing to Triumph, Friendship, Prayer, Taking a Stand, Choosing Life, Choosing Salvation and Choosing Love. Everyone reading this book will have a personal favorite. I had several. But the one that touched me the most was Saving Babies.
The stories will make your heart sing, bring a smile to your face or a tear to your eyes. While the stories are personal to each of the women telling them, we can all recognize a bit of ourselves in some of them. And they will make you consider your own U-Turns in life.
Armchair Interviews suggests: Carry this book with you to read in the small breaks we all have daily. Or read the devotional before bed and then choose a story or two. You will be enriched and challenged. What is the enrichment and challenge? Each woman will decide that for herself.
