Gentle guidance
I love the book! I think it is a wonderful book to give a friend who has just lost a child or soon after to help them begin to grieve in a gentle loving way. I lost my son almost 6 years ago and I enjoy reading it. God's word has always been my saving grace through the grief of my son. His love can give comfort that no one else can.

Compassionately, articulately addresses ways to cope
In Restore My Soul: A Grief Companion, Lorraine Peterson presents an informative, "reader friendly" guide for Christians needing to face and understand their feelings in coping with the loss of a loved one. The emotions arising from the death of a friend, family member, or colleague can be devastating as unresolved grief threatens to result in emotional, psychological, or spiritual isolation. The thirty-one short, easy-to-read chapters compassionately and articulately address ways and means to cope with life after loss. Each chapter presents a brief reflection on the issue of loss, followed by carefully selected Scripture readings and a suggested prayer. Restore My Soul is urgently recommended reading for anyone (regardless of denominational affiliation) whose soul has been savaged by the loss of a parent, spouse, child, relative, friend, companion, or colleague.

Learned everything about Grace from this book!
I have been a Christian my whole life but still failed to grasp the concept of God's Grace. This book helps people realize how much God loves them and is cheering for them and only wants them to succeed. Not only that but He'll forgive us in a second. This book illustrates it's points by using stories of people's lives. I could identify with everyone in the book. Lorraine Peterson's book leaves you with a whole new realization of what the word Grace really means and you no longer look at God as the big judge in the sky! You learn how He'll give you everything you need to do anything, and that we never can do anything on our own strength, so there's no need to try! He'll help us. The best inspirational book I've ever read!

The best book I've ever read on prayer
I've been wanting for some time to start REALLY PRAYING, and this book was just what I needed! It CHALLENGES you to become a PRAYER WARRIOR and also SHOWS YOU HOW, explaining everything in an easily UNDERSTANDABLE way. REAL PRAYER keeps you protected and helps you and your friends in so many ways! And it is REALLY EFFECTIVE when it comes to winning people for the Lord!!!! I owe Him and Lorraine Peterson so much for this book! You should read it too! You don't know what you're missing! ...A CLOSE relationship with JESUS!!!!

Hand of God
It was awhile back when I recieved this book as a gift. I can't recall who gave it to me, or even why. I do remember it setting on my bedside table and picking it up from time to time. I remember that each time a read one of those short chapters that I understood a little more about God and my personal relationship with Him. I felt closer to Him. I thank God for giving me this book. It was a significant step in my journey.

A No-frills, Straight to the Point Devotional
After searching a long time to find a devotional just right for me I picked this one up a my local library. Unlike many of the devotional guides I've encountered this one is very direct and doesn't waste a lot of space trying to keep you entertained. It speaks right to the point, without being too blunt or preachy. Althought it's not especially funny it WILL draw you closer to God. If your looking for a real condensed devotional, then this is the book for you; if you want something more lighthearted, try one of Martha Bolton's books. I'm so glad God gave me this book!!!!

Hardline Christian attitudes overshadow the subject.
The religious right can sleep well knowing that the 1st ammendment allows such hogwash to be printed without restriction. this book was neither objective or informative. the one thing that was learned from this text is just how obscene someone can sound despite guising it as a book for preteens.

Great for Christian Teens!
Lorraine Peterson has a way of writing which really hits teenagers in the heart. She talks about issues that most of us face and can relate to. She has wonderful advice and ideas on how to solve our problems. She selects the best verses from the Bible to help us understand that what we are going through isn't new. All her books should get 5 stars, thank you for writing for Christian teens!
