Wholehearted: A Coloring Book Devotional, Premium Edition (Devotionals for Women) Details
About the Author First and foremost, I belong to Jesus Christ and I’m passionate about encouraging friends like you in Truth. My favorite verse is Psalm 37:4 — it’s a reminder to seek the Lord in all that I do and to delight in Him so that He can mold and shape the desires of my heart. I’m from the Midwest, an Indiana girl born and raised. Indiana is known for having a whole lot of cornfields. They are fields of gold and little reminders of simple beauty that I’ve grown to really love!?I feel God most when I’m in His word and in His world, enjoying the beauty of His creation out in nature. He is so big and so alive! I hope that studying the Word creatively will help make that feeling a reality for you, too! Read more
Reviews
My review is of the standard paperback version of this book. As I have purchased and reviewed the Premium version of other of this publishers books, I'm certain that the paper in the spiral-bound version of the book is an improvement over what the paperback.This is an excellent devotional guide which can be accomplished in 30 days (as the writer suggests) or at your own speed if you prefer to save out the time you spend in devotional study.The format of the book alternates between one day of suggested tasks and prayers to the next day of coloring. That amounts to fifteen days each of both formats. Each day is prefaced with cited verse of Scripture and the task/coloring relates back to that verse.Each day has a page of verse and then the author shares her personal thoughts and experiences which relate to the verse. Then, you either follow the tasks or color the design depending on which day it is.I found the course of study to be of immense personal use for me. It seemed as if the entire book had been geared towards the issues I have been facing. The stories that the author tells are heartfelt and the suggested tasks are ones that, while I found a bit emotionally challenging, were ultimate rewarding for me.The coloring was just a small part of this book and the designs are geared to and highlight the Bible verse. Each of the drawings can be accomplished in a day.For coloring purposes, the paper in this book is white, thin, slightly rough and non-perforated. Alcohol and water-based markers bleed through. Gel pens and India ink leave shadows of color on the back of the back. Colored pencils work well (both oil and wax based) but hard lead pencils can leave dents. I use a blotter page under the page I am working on (both coloring and using a pen for writing) to keep ink and dents from marring the pages below.
