Judah is known round the United States and the world for his preaching ministry. His fresh, anointed, humorous messages demystify the Bible and make Christianity real. Judah is also the author of his most recent New York Times bestselling book,Jesus Is _____.
My Review:
This is the second book by Judah Smith that I have read, the first one was "Jesus is for You." I like Judah Smith's writing style but more or less I love the little stories he shares within his writing.

This devotional book is a very easy and quick read and as a reader I felt like I was getting to know Judah the author just as much as I was relating his stories to my own life and the Bible.

I enjoy when authors can share stories about them selves but then turn each story into a life lesson that is relate able to a biblical story.  Each daily read does start of with a suggested Bible scriptures to read and questions to help you dig deeper and connect more with God.  

This book would be a great book to pass on to new people in their faith or those people who struggle with making a routine of Jesus time.   The daily reads truly are short enough that you could have this book stashed in the bathroom as well as they range about 3-4 pages. 

Thank you BookLook program for sending me this book for free in exchange for an honest review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% mine.

Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review.  :)  All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review.   About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.”  The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family.  During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income. They did what they could for themselves and their five children but often it was not enough. But there were...
