Reach Out Gather In by Karen Ehman

Reach Out Gather In by Karen Ehman is a book of 40 days to opening your heart and home, but it's SO much more! I have loved Karen's work and enjoy reading her books. I have also read many books on hospitality but found that Reach Out Gather In is so much more!

Reach Out Gather In is set up to be read as one devotional per day. I, however, was so moved by the book I read it continuously.  There is a space for journaling along the way, as well as part Bible study depending on the day.  Karen also shares the gift of her famous recipes throughout the book.  Karen shares many of her personal stories as well. This book is real and offers inspiration for women today.  

I found that this book also challenged me in an unexpected way.  It challenged me to think about my goals, dreams and aspirations.  I confess, I was not expecting that from a book about hospitality! That's what the book is so much more.  I highly recommend this book, not only for personal reflection, inspiration, Bible study and ideas, but also as a gift for anyone who may want to explore those same ideas. I also quickly found myself highlighting and starring ideas in the book! 

I was given a free copy from the publisher for my honest review, which I was happy to do.  I highly recommend Reach Out Gather In. This book is a gem!
