Quirky Letters by Faith Raine is derived from a personal journey about trusting God through heartbreaks and setbacks. Each section is filled with hope and peace, with words offering encouragement and healing. This is a unique assortment of letters, poems, and reflections, each talking to you and sharing a personal piece of Raine’s journey in which she dealt with loss, change, and faith. These vulnerable and heartfelt stories of grace and healing will uplift and encourage you on your own journey. The short sections are filled with quiet understanding from someone who knows what it means to struggle with faith and offer you support. Each section features scripture as a foundation and spiritual reminder that growth is always possible and serves a purpose. This can be a devotional reading with insights, gentle reminders, sincere words, and affirmations.
This book will appeal to readers who enjoy inspirational devotionals, affirmations, sources of encouragement, and personal essays. The book is formatted so you can take your time through each letter, with moments to reflect, and themes that allow you to think about your own faith. This creates opportunities for solo reflection, journaling, group discussion, or even as subjects for a Sunday school class. At the root of this is the concept of not giving up even when you fail to understand why or are struggling in faith. Themes include brokenness, healing, faith, problems, growing pains, and distractions. Each letter, whether it's a poem or a reflection, feels like a small testimony that speaks directly to you while incorporating Bible verses and honesty. Each is a little different, which offers a variety of thought-provoking content. The charm, sincerity, and hopefulness that Raine supplies in Quirky Letters make it perfect for those who are seeking material about faith and trusting God.
