sheilawalsh.jpgThey are questions we've all asked: Why is this happening? Does God really care about me? Does my life even matter? Why won't God fix ...?

God's Shelter for Your Storm is a gift book from celebrated author Sheila Walsh. Adapted from her trade book The Shelter of God's Promises, this small book would be an appropriate gift for someone grieving, struggling, or facing one of life's storms.

Walsh incorporates personal stories with Scripture passages and encouragements. Each chapter is themed, explicating one promise of God.

Alicia Odell:

Hope for Each Day by Billy Graham is my favorite devotional book. I also love my monthly Journey magazines!


Jodi,

this looks like a fabulous book, I love everything that I have seen from Sheila. My fav devo book is pretty old school, it's called "Streams In The Desert". It has seriously impacted my life!


Jodi Skulley Author Profile Page:

Awesome, Chris! Streams in the Desert is one of my favorites too! :-)


Liz Gilbert:

15 minutes alone with God has been helpful in creating my habit of having a daily quiet time.


KenTripp:

My Utmost for His Highest is one of my favorites


Oswald Chambers... "My Utmost for His Highest..." most definite!


Marlene:

I love "Jesus Calling".... My next one will be Sheila's "Good Morning, Lord: I Don't Know Where You're Going Today But I'm Going with You". I love Sheila Walsh's booksl!!


I am reading thorugh Sarah Young's CJesus Calling


Michelle Stohler:

I really enjoy Jen Hatmaker's book "Out of the Spin Cycle". Very relevant to early mothering.


Nightlights by Dr. Dobson is my current favorite devotional!


Angie Burleson:

My favorite devotional book is The Way Home by Wayne Watson (the Christian music artist).


Anna Obamwonyi:

This has to be God, as I just watched Sheila being interviewed by James and Betty on Life Today and was glued to her beautiful accent and then got entrenched as she openly shared her humble heart with us all - I thought, I must get this book!

My daily devotional musts are Joel Osteen (yearly calendar and daily emails - he seems to write them just for me - how does he know!) and Everyday with Jesus - a great devotional with bible study scriptures and I journal for deeper personal reflection.

Thank you and many blessings!

Anna


Kristi J:

I have always loved Nightlights by Dobson. I received it as a gift for my wedding and love how it reconnects me and my husband and gets us thinking together.


Jessica Toland:

I don't really have a favorite devotional. To be honest I don't think I have ever owned a devotional. I love reading daily devotionals off the internet, though. I have bought many people devotionals as gifts, but I guess I put devotionals in that category of things that you should get as a gift.
On the other hand, I love Sheila Walsh. Every year that I have been to Women of Faith Conference, she is the one I anticipate seeing. Even though she makes me cry every time I see her, I love her. Her story of needing a father she didn't have is much like my own and as a mother of 2, I have had to learn to let go of the hurts of my childhood to be as good a mother as I can be. She just really touches a special place in me. I would love to win a copy of her devotional.


Jesus Calling is up there on the list! Love Sheila's writings as well!


Crystal Bethel:

Choosing to See by Mary Beth Chapman


Teresa T:

My favorite devotional book is Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. It is written as though Jesus were talking directly to me. I read it on each day. This is my second year doing the same devotional because each year, the message of the day means something different to me. Sometimes, when I need something specific, I close my eyes, ask Jesus to show me something, open up Jesus Calling and there it is, something special-just for me! I have given out many copies to friends and those who don't know Jesus.


Shelli Hetzner:

Jesus Calling by Sarah Young


Christal:

Praying God's Word by Beth Moore


Julie Clark:

"Streams in the Desert" by Billy Graham


Carol Mathenia:

My favorite devotional book is Open Windows.


Michele H.:

My all-time favorite devotional is "My Utmost For His Highest" by Oswald Chambers. He had such insight into the scriptures and how to live out the call of God.


Thus far in my recently refreshed walk with God, "Sun Stand Still" has definitely spoken to me in different ways on a personal level.
Thank you to Shelia isn't enough...for your dedication and ability to express in a real talk way.
Absolutely look forward to jumping into your books.

xo
Blessings!
- Laura


Hilda Quintanilla:

Anything with Sheri Rose Shepherd


Brenda :

Gosh... I have ALL of Sheila's books and I LOVE them all, but I have to say that my favorite devotional books are the WOF conference series devotionals. It features all the speakers on a variety of subjects, so there's sure to be something for just about anything you're going through...


Joanne Viola:

My favorite devotional is My Utmost For His Highest. Although I have used others :)


Pat Saltzgaber:

My favorite devotional book is Starting Your Day Right by Joyce Meyer.


Debbie Greenwald:

Oswald Chambers... "My Utmost for His Highest..


Julia McCoy:

Anything by Sheila Walsh, but currently God's Inspirational Promise Book by Max Lucado. I've struggled with depression most of my life, and Sheila Walsh has been such an inspiration and encouragement for me.


jennifer crosswhite:

Jesus calling by Sarah young is my favorite because each devotion can be read and understood by parents and kids and each one has so much to think about in very few words. Great for early morning or night


Montie Landrum:

I like Jesus Calling, anything by Beth Moore, and Joel Osteen's daily emails. First and foremost, I find my most precious devotions coming from the Bible itself, the book of Psalms is and has always been my "go to" source for inspiration.


I like all of the Women of faith devotions. I do want to read Sara Young's devotional.


Sallie E.:

These days email devotions are the way I go much of the time. Girlfriends in God are some of my favorites. I think my favorite devotional book is called "The Face of God", but I don't have it in front of my and I'm not sure I got the name right.


Jessica Buchanan:

My favorite is Spring Renew A Steadfast Spirit Within Me.


Toni Bowman:

Their are days that I need a good inspirational book.


tasha vance:

My favorite inspirational book is every womans battle.


Cindy:

Hi,
My favorite devotional book is Matthew Henry's Commentary. Yes, I know its not really designed as a "devotional" book, but I read my Bible every day, and then, I like to read what Matthew Henry said about the passage. It gives me new insights and a better understanding of what I have read. I LOVE Matthew Henry!
