Power Thoughts Devotional: 365 Daily Inspirations for Winning the Battle of the Mind

Based on Joyce Meyer’s New York Times bestseller Power Thoughts, this devotional includes 365 opportunities to tap into God’s power in your daily life by thinking and speaking His way. The POWER THOUGHTS DEVOTIONAL will provide you with life-changing declarations of truth, directly from God’s Word, to think and speak over your life every day of the year.

Proverbs 18:21 says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Simply put, words are containers for power–positive or negative, creative or destructive. Therefore, it is imperative that you learn to think and speak on purpose, using the life-giving wisdom in God’s Word. When you do, your life will never be the same!

If you struggle with being negative, critical, or judgmental of people and situations, don’t be discouraged. God wants to help you renew your mind to think and speak as He would. It won’t happen overnight–but each day you will make progress as you choose power thoughts to be more like Jesus.

It’s time for you to experience and enjoy the life God created you to live, and Joyce wants to help you get there. You can do it with this devotional by learning how to think and speak power thoughts daily.

Charlotte Moss: A Visual Life: Scrapbooks, Collages, and Inspirations

The celebrated designer’s latest book, devoted to gleaning design inspiration from the personal scrapbooks and notebooks of great women of style—including her own. Interior designer Charlotte Moss has spent years collecting as well as creating scrapbooks—a pastime both meditative and instructive about her own ideas regarding design and style. In this unique book, Moss brings together her own scrapbooks along with those of notable women, both contemporary and historical, whose flair for style inspires us, including interior designer Elsie de Wolfe and society doyenne Gloria Vanderbilt—all never before published. Organized by theme—home, garden, travel, entertaining, and fashion—each chapter includes examples of Moss’s signature style mingled with excerpts from the scrapbooks of these great women. From the ambassador’s wife and bon vivant Evangeline Bruce, we learn that she preferred accessorizing tabletops with simple florets of broccoli in biscuit tins. And from the iconic Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, we see her notes and menus from the legendary White House dinners she threw. One piece (among many) of sage advice includes perfecting one extraordinary meal and serving it again and again, rather than experimenting endlessly.

Inspirations from Ancient Wisdom: At the Feet of the Master, Light on the Path, the Voice of the Silence
