BATTLEFIELD OF THE MIND STUDY BIBLE REVIEW

Image
Hey ladies, I just wanted to share with you my study bible that has been really helpful in me getting deeper into the word and scripture. Commentary and notes in this bible are by Joyce Meyer, who has been a great teacher to me for many years. It is a fantastic study bible, using the amplified version which I find helpful to get a more rounded understanding. You can get this bible both as a paperback and hardback, however I would recommend investing in a hardback version for longevity and durability. The paperback wears and tears more easily. The pages in these bibles are also quite thin so be careful if you are also someone who likes to highlights/underlines scripture.

Hey fellow booklovers, Today I am sharing another book recommendation from one of my favourite authors Joyce Meyer. One thing I love about Joyce Meyer besides her no nonsense approach is that she has a way of making you feel like she is talking to you directly and knows exactly what's going on in your mind and heart. She is relatable and conversational in her writing, something I think a lot of people can resonate with in her books. In her teachings and sermons she is known to have tough love approach however her message has always been that no matter who you are and what you have gone through, you can do better and that you absolutely can enjoy your life.    This is a book that instigates action and builds you up where you're saying to yourself - the only person in my way is me and the enemy who loves to get in my way. One thing I personally got from reading this book was realising just how much my habits were holding me back. Something Joyce s
