Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Is God In Your Yard" by Sita Moore "As a Christian that has been struggling with my faith and drifting further away from God by the day, this book felt like a sign from God. A personal message from Him to me. It was that impactful." "Illustrations are things I associate with children's books. I can't recall ever reading an illustrated adult book on a serious subject. So, it surprised me when I realized the book has illustrated pages. Still, I think it's a smart move by the author. Nothing emphasizes coming to God as children better than colorful and fun images, just like in children's books." "Stunning illustrations that create vivid imagery accompany Sita's writing. She makes her reader the protagonist. As a result, the book feels personal and tailored for you, the reader. Her words are simple, and her message is easy to comprehend."

God Has a Name is a simple yet profound guide to understanding God in a new light--focusing on what God says about himself. This one shift has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way. In God Has a Name, John Mark Comer takes you line by line through Exodus 34:6-8--Yahweh's self-revelation on Mount Sinai, one of the most quoted passages in the Bible. Along the way, Comer addresses some of the most profound questions he came across as he studied these noted lines in Exodus, including: Why do we feel this gap between us and God? Could it be that a lot of what we think about God is wrong? Not all wrong, but wrong enough to mess up how we relate to him? What if our "God" is really a projection of our own identity, ideas, and desires? What if the real God is different, but far better than we could ever imagine? No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, the act of learning who God is just might surprise you--and change everything.

This book contains the author's true-life stories with a few pictures to back them up. It's also based on the King James Bible. The author's life has been full of miracles since she was saved at the age of thirteen. She got married at age nineteen and then had 9 babies. After 42 years of marriage, her husband, Jim, went to heaven, and now she's had time to write this book that she calls My Walk with God. Her hope is that you will be blessed by it, and if you don't have a personal relationship with God, that you will ask Him into your Life as well, and begin your Walk with God. May He bless you all.
