Coffee with God - Liesel Parkinson

Written by military women for women serving or connected with the military, Coffee with God is a unique collection of 165 reflections on the Psalms, which is enough for six a week, for a six month duration (the typical length of a deployment). Drawing on the range of themes expressed by the psalmists, the 28 authors show us what grace under pressure looks like as they write frankly about their own experience of service life. This includes topics such as; the challenge and excitement of deployment, the loneliness for those left at home, the upheaval of moving, the realities of 'mess life', the camaraderie of sharing with others and much more. Each day's entry contains a key verse from the Psalms, an additional passage, a personal reflection and a prayer or 'point to ponder' to close -- ultimately designed to draw readers closer to God and propel them further along in their journey of faith. In true military style, 'Coffee with God' also features a chuff chart allowing readers to mark off the days they have read and for those less familiar with military terms, there is a glossary.
