If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you most likely heard the news that my new book, SONGS OF PRAISE, is being released by Ancient Faith Publishing! I'm so excited to bring you this book, the first of its kind in journaling devotionals exclusively for Orthodox women.You know how much I love our Psalter Groups and the sisterhood it creates between so many of us worldwide. Every year, I look forward to the forty day fasts when we begin our groups. Each day, no matter where we are in our day and pray for one another by name and together the entire Psalter is read--by each group. That means if we have five groups, it's read five times a day. What a tremendous blessing!It was with that joy that I wanted to create a resource that would encourage women to not only pick up their Psalters during the fasting periods but all year long. I wanted something for us. Bible journaling has been a thing for several years now and as much as I enjoy working in them, there's always something missing. No writings of the saints, no devotions that speak to us directly from an Orthodox standpoint. That really bugged me.Songs of Praise is the first in what I hope is just the beginning of devotionals for us.So what exactly is Songs of Praise?It's a 384-page devotional that includes the entire Psalter with extra-wide margins for journaling and notetaking.Inside you'll find:

Writings from various saints on the benefits of daily Psalter reading.
Prayers Before Reading.
A reflection after each of the twenty kathismata on topics relating to Orthodox women today, along with some of my favorite quotes from some of my favorite saints.
Extra journaling pages after each reflection.
An index on how the psalms can be prayed for various needs as used by St. Athanasios.

Songs of Praise Flip ThruMy prayer for this book is that it will become a place women look forward to spending time in each and every day and that instead of seeking comfort in the things offered by the world, we'll find it in the sweet words of St. David. Because, even though my name is on the front of this book, it's really not mine. It's his.Here's what people are saying about it so far: Click here to pre-order your copy! And HURRY!
