Reviews for Margaret’s Books
Fearless: Abundant Life Through Infinite Love
If prayer and meditation are a means for developing a relationship with God, this book will not only help you to do that, but it will also challenge you to connect with Him with all of your being. Margaret is eloquent and yet writes in a clear, easy-to-understand, down-to-earth manner. Many of us struggle in prayer, or we may find ourselves feeling alone even when surrounded by people and engaged. Others live in an inner world of anxiety and chaos because they are disconnected from their true selves. Each of these issues is addressed in Margaret’s book, FEARLESS. As we seek out wholeness and connection, Margaret challenges us to live beyond our fears towards a deeper ability to give and receive love through a deeper connection to God, others, and ourselves.
More Than Words: the Freedom to Thrive After Trauma
A great resource for parents, teachers, and others who work closely with people struggling with the effects of trauma on their lives. Full of inspirational stories and hope that there is a way to move on from trauma. I cannot wait for follow-up books!
