Mamma book review from author Connie Pierce!

 

This review of my book, The Gospel According to Mamma,  just in from Connie Pierce, author of My journey of real life weight loss – How I lost over 180 pound! I highly recommend Connie’s book, by the way. It was the reading of her book that helped me realize the importance of telling our “stories” to others. My life was blessed by the insights she gained and shared and I’m sure yours will be, too. I’m also awed by her success and hope to put my own weight loss plan into action in the new year!! (after I enjoy holiday treats and feasts!)

Connie wrote,

“One word comes to mind:  honesty!  “The Gospel According to Mamma” is refreshingly honest, simple yet profound in its counsel.  Annette Bridges uses the Bible in an inspired way to illustrate the thinking process her Mamma used in living and raising children.  Bridges also included quotes from a spiritual thinker and leader, Mary Baker Eddy.  Eddy states, “Honesty is spiritual power.”  The power and strength of this work is in its honest account of her life and struggles.  I highly recommend this book as one you can read many times and gain new insights with each reading.”

Introducing "What mamma says" greeting cards!

“What Mamma says” greeting cards just in time for Christmas!

A set of 12 unique greeting cards for $25!

“What mamma says” greeting cards are blank inside and feature 12 different mamma one-liner excerpts from my book, The Gospel According to Mamma

  1. Mamma says we would be wise to remember that what goes around usually comes back around to us—the good or the bad—depending on which we dish out.
  2. Mamma says if we stay so focused on our past failings, we won’t be able to move beyond them and learn what we need to know.
  3. Mamma says true self-knowledge is an awareness of the self that God sees in us—good and worthwhile, made in his image and likeness.
  4. Mamma says that God has given us the ability to be everything he created us to be, and this includes making good and wise deci­sions.
  5. Mamma says that a loving and for­giving God asks us to do the same for others and for ourselves.
  6. Mamma says we can rely on our God-given qualities anytime, and his is the only opinion that matters.
  7. Whether struggling with relationship troubles or problems at school or work, mamma says “Let nothing take your joy from you.”
  8. Mamma says she is quite certain that “how old is too old?” is not a question known to the Lord.
  9. Who is it that confines, restricts, hinders, or inhibits the days of our lives? Mamma says, “Not God!”
  10. Mamma says we should appreciate what we have and fret less about what we don’t.
  11. Mamma says gratitude helps us to see what is there instead of what isn’t.
  12. When it comes to words Mamma says, “If they are not good, then maybe they should not be said!”
