ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

award-winning insurance business before redirecting his career to write. His historical novel Crusade of Tears in The Journey of Souls series earned a Christy Award nomination. He’s completing a master’s degree in

ABOUT THE BOOK:
C.D. Baker dips into the flowing stream of God’s love and draws out relief, refreshment, mercy, hope and sustenance for a new generation of Christ-followers. Baker’s clean, simple prose is paired with evocative, black and white photographs that will etch each truth into the reader’s memory.
WHAT MAKES THIS BOOK GREAT?
- You don't have to squint your eyes because the sleek layout and Garamond typeface makes reading easy on the eyes.
- Each "Cup of the Day" comes with an illustration on the left side that reinforces the message and brings the feeling of relief and relaxation.
- The brief one-page read is just perfect. It doesn't take much of your time and gives "busy" people a chance to keep their lives on track even while they're in the car, inside the office or waiting for a bus.
- The first person narrative reads like someone is speaking to your heart but it's not another person, it's still YOU.
- The writer's honesty as scribbled on the pages is very touching and insightful. There are times when we need a friend but we don't want one and this book just fills the void.
- Each day's teachings challenges our faith, exposes our emotions, encourages character development and reminds us that God is still in charge of everything.
MY RECOMMENDATION:
We all need to feed our souls to sustain a healthy spiritual life and this book is just choc-full of writing goodness. If you have to pick a devotional today, make it 101 Cups of Water by C.D. Baker.
