In a time when women carry more influence than any other generation, the power of prayer has never been more important to remind us that we do not have to bear our crosses alone. We need prayer to stand guard over our hearts and minds and over the hearts and minds of our families. Women today are shattering glass ceilings and forging new paths in the world. This audiobook is a clarion call for women to continue their progressive march of empowerment by dreaming like their daughters and praying like their grandmothers.

Before you say good night, snuggle your kids cozy close and enjoy favorite Bible stories for bedtime. Amy Parker, the author you know and love from the best-selling books Night Night, Farm and Night Night, Train, has released her first bedtime Bible storybook.

The purpose of this book is to guide you on the Ignatian contemplation form of prayer by bringing to life some of the stories in Jesus to life. Fourteen stories from the gospels have been selected to meditate on and are presented in chronological order. Also, Bible verses from other Old and New Testament books have been included that may relate to the story and enrich the text with the written word of God.

Does the Bible feel confusing and complicated to you? Perhaps some of it feels familiar, but overall, does it feel impossible to navigate? Maybe you recognize the stories, but you just don’t know how they all fit together. Yet they do fit together. In her unique and remarkably listenable way, Angie Smith - best-selling author of What Women Fear, Mended, I Will Carry You, and Seamless - helps you tie together all the loose, disconnected threads you find in the Bible, weaving them into a beautifully crafted storyline.

Why does the Bible contain so many stories of hurting people? Though their situations vary, their conditions don't. They have nowhere to turn. Yet before their eyes stands a never-say-die Galilean who majors in stepping in when everyone else steps out. Lucado reminds us that the purpose of these portraits isn't to tell us what Jesus did-but rather to remind us what Jesus still does.
