I needed this book! Because I will admit - it is easy to load on the guilt - I am THE MASTER of that!! Don't get me wrong - I'm not about loading it onto others but I load that guilt right onto myself. So when I saw this blog tour I felt it was perfect for me. Turning Guilt Trips Into Joy Rides by Shirley Brosius, Janine Boyer and Kim Messinger is a book that highly encouraged me! This book is set up into 183 very short devotions - less than a page in length - but packed with thoughts that hit right to home. And each is followed by scripture or prayers to encourage you to get your focus on God - where it should be. I would recommend this book - it was easy to swallow and digest and PACKED with wisdom! We need that, as women, to be reminded that guilt is not necessary - let's live in grace!
Guilt! She pokes you as you write about your quaint, eccentric aunt. She grabs you as you wander from e-mail to Facebook to laundry instead of focusing on your work. She kicks you as you complain about your husband to a friend.
Have you noticed? Women seem riddled with guilt. And it’s hard to know if guilt is legitimate or simply a product of our imaginations. After all, should we really feel guilty about things over which we have no control?
We are not perfect. We have no control over some things, so it's no use feeling guilty. We can't do it all.

Thank you, Becky, for reviewing our book. We're glad you have enjoyed the content and organization of it. We were blessed in the writing and trust women are encouraged to lose the guilt and find joy in Christ as they read our stories.
