This book should be on every Christian woman’s list of must reads. Glenna Marshall shares her heart and what she has learned in her adult years and as a pastor’s wife on the importance of studying God’s word, praying, and the importance of corporate worship.

Marshall dispels the excuses that we use to thwart our daily spiritual disciplines and encourages us to find time to read, memorize, and study God’s word each day.

In this book Marshall will define everyday faithfulness and show us what that would look like in different chapters of our lives. She addresses our lack of discipline and gives practical ways to find time for God each day. Her reason for being faithful in the small daily things is that it prepares us for the bigger trials and challenges to come. If we don’t know scripture how can we recall it in the midst of trouble?

This book has a great deal of encouragement and she shares scripture to show us that God wants to meet with us each day. The two chapters that impacted me the most were chapters 4 and 6 on waiting and suffering. Her words were a comfort to me in the midst of some trying times in my own life. It was deeply meaningful to me to know I am not alone and that God speaks of these very things in His word.

I highly recommend this book for your personal reading or to be used with small groups or share with friends and family. It is a very needed book in our world today. As we face uncertain futures, scary health issues, struggles with jobs and family, and the distress we feel each time we open our social media or turn on our television I believe the habits she encourages can give us a secure foundation to handle whatever comes. The most important thing we can do each day is know Christ more. This book will definitely push you in this direction and steer you toward the true Book to know Jesus more deeply.
