Vredevelt's prescription for spiritual renewal includes a healthy dose of heartfelt and humorous anecdotes coupled with referrals to appropriate passages from the Bible. Aimed exclusively at women, this breezy pick-me-up offers welcome respite for today's typically overloaded females while extolling the power of contemplative prayer. Drawing primarily on her own experiences as a pastor's wife, a mother, a friend, and a professional therapist, the author distills inspiration in eminently digestible nuggets.
Chicken Soup with a discernibly religious twist.

Book Description
Every woman knows the draining reality of too much to do with too little time to do it in. The multiple demands of being wives, mothers, friends, daughters, and employees create a lifestyle of personal neglect: everyone else's needs come first. But exhaustion doesn't have to be habit-forming-it can be overcome! Pam Vredevelt supplies engaging, humorous, and often poignant vignettes that bring refreshment to the soul the way espresso brings energy to the body. This special brand of spiritual stimulation is a powerful source of sacred relief for those on the verge-or beyond-burnout.
