YOUR QUIET TIME WITH THE LORD IS ABOUT TO TURN COLORFUL . . . with our new Christian Coloring Book, Lord Help Me To Flourish, co-authored by Nathalie Villeneuve and myself. It's really the first of its kind, and we've lovingly named it after two activities we both love—coloring, and devotional reading. Hence the name of our subtitle— A COLORING DEVOTIONAL! Find out why this book is so unique . . . OUR MISSION— TO HELP YOU FLOURISH IN FAITH WHILE EXPERIENCING GOD THROUGH THE CREATIVE ARTS.
