There’s a multitude of “rock and a hard place” scenarios my mind could ponder. Sometimes the outcome doesn’t seem quite as assuredly joyous as the birth of a baby. The rocky place of unemployment and serious health concerns in which we currently find ourselves offers decidedly daunting outcomes. None of the options are appealing right now, and there’s a temptation to throw hands in the air and just settle. … More He didn’t settle

The title intrigued me first – Walking on Water – in reference to Peter’s bold request to walk out on the stormy sea to meet Jesus in the darkness. The subtitle also caught my attention – experiencing a life of miracles, courageous faith, and union with God – because this is where I’m walking in my real life.

These life applications of scripture caused me to pause and ask Holy Spirit for deeper application of God’s word in my life. My journey through Jennifer’s book has been interactive and life-changing. I can’t wait to pass this book to a friend and recommend it to many others. Most likely, Walking on Water will be a Christmas present or birthday gift for family and friends in the near future. … More Book Review: Walking on Water by Jennifer A. Miskov, Ph.D.
