This book is a very personal testimony of healing with an inspirational message for those who know how shame, fear and rejection can shape and paralyse the smallest daily decisions. Using the author's own lived experiences and those of others, it encourages the reader to break free from destructive cycles of self-hate and despair by embracing the love of God and his unconditional acceptance and passion for the person he made us to be.

An affirming and insightful read which I found encouraging and would recommend to others.

A fantastic book, which at times is very moving. It is written with honesty and courage and yet challenges the reader at the same time. I did not want it to end!

I found this a book I couldn’t put down. Written in a great conversational style, I felt like I was sat with Marilyn and Tracey as they shared their lives with such honesty- two inspirational ladies! I laughed and cried...journeying with them and feeling all the threads being woven, transformed and worked together for good .a beautiful tapestry .. a must read.

First heard Marilyn Baker in the 1980’s I think. But not really listened to her music over recent decades. Loved this 3 CD set. It contains some of the songs I knew from that era, all of which are so encouraging. Delighted to be hearing songs she's written/performed since then. During this 2020 pandemic it's good to be reminded of God's unfailing grace to us. Warmly recommend this collection.

Throughout my life particular songs have spoken to me at different times.  I love to hear the Scripture that is so entwined in her songs; God often uses songs to speak to me and remind me of truth, and often uses Marilyn's songs particularly.

This 40 day devotional is like having your best friend draw alongside to comfort, support and inspire when the days are hard and your heart is hurt. Tracy is sympathetic, never condemns or judges, but seems to know exactly what you need to read and hear on any given day! She draws out helpful ideas from the Scripture verses, adds her own prophetic and reflective words, suggests prayers; and adds extra readings if you want to dig deeper or have the time. I particularly appreciated some of her poems and reflections. Her own personal story is sometimes woven into the daily (short) chapters and is also helpful. Whether or not you are in a desert experience right now, this book is recommended - and it's a good book to gift to someone else who is indeed going through a tough time. I had a pre-release copy and these are mine own experiences with the book.
