My new book is coming out in just 15 days! Whoo! Hoo! I am celebrating because I feel that if I never write another book, this one would say what I want people to know. It’s what I want my best friends to know, what I want my kids to know, and what I want everyone who wants to live their best life to know. It’s called Self Talk, Soul Talk: What to Say When You Talk To Yourself. It captures what I’ve learned about the incredible power of the words we say to ourselves.
For centuries, people have talked to themselves. Some of the things they’ve said have brought incredible success. That’s why I wrote Self talk, Soul Talk. It uncovers the self talk phrases tucked away in the pages of Scripture which highly successful people, like King David and Deborah the Prophetess, spoke to their own souls.
Several years ago, I began to borrow those Scriptural phrases and replace my ordinary (and often destructive) self talk with powerful, life changing soul talk. It really works!
Another reason I am looking forward to the book’s release is because I am finishing a companion website to launch with the book. That means I have 15 days to get that done! Whoo! Hoo! (That exclamation is not right…I should have said “AAAHHH!”) We are putting the finishing touches on the website that will offer some deeper thoughts and some really fun light-hearted stuff too.
OOH I'm glad I saw this entry. My self talk is better...but sometimes it can be really bad!

Jennifer, I have to say I'm looking forward to this book. Our Women's Sunday School class at church is working through your first book again, and it is challenging and blessing each of the women.

Dear Jennifer, I can't wait to read your new book as I haven't read a book of yours yet that has not inspired me. I also enjoy your web site. I do hope that you will be visiting the Orlando area for your upcoming weekend series. I thank God for the words that he speaks through you and for your willingness to share those words.
Blessings to you and yours,
Laura

Jennifer,
I'm barefoot! I just finished your book and it blessed my socks off. God placed it in my home just when He knew I needed it. I have been going through a "dark" time in my life, but God is certainly doing His work in me and oh, what joy to experience His peace and freedom from fear when I keep my eyes on Him.
I especially liked the story about riding the tandem. My husband and I have a tandem, so I know whereof you speak. We're both first born and I know from experience that when both of us are trying to be in control, everything gets out of control. My daughter put it this way after a ride with her husband on our tandem, "Boy, you've really got to have a good marriage to ride that thing!"
Thank you for allowing your blindness to bless us through your obedience to our Savior. I look forward to you blog and e-newsletters.
