Love the Christian perspective

I’ve done a lot of reading on drinking and I am loving having the Christian perspective on this and including God’s Word. So glad this is here!

Great Alcohol Free Book for a Christian Woman!

I have read so many Alcohol Free books written by women. This one is extra special to me because of the emphasis on letting go of alcohol and getting closer to Jesus and the life He has planned for us. I can relate so much to your story Christy! Thank you for being brave enough to share it with us. You’re changing lives!

Cheerful yet Compelling

I love Christy’s story and the way that she guides with so much grace towards truths that we all need to be thinking about, no matter our vices, to be reminded that we were made for so much good!

The ease of following this in my daily life

I love that I can use this in my daily life. I have found that using this has made me reflect on each thing I do from a different perspective, my desire to feel and be better. This has strengthened my faith and completely changed my desire to drink.

Not just a book, but a life changing experience.

I just finished my 40-day fast and I couldn’t imagine having done it without this book and Christy’s guidance. Today is day 40 and I am filled with energy, joy, and hope for the future. I love that she ended it with Jeremiah 29:11-13. I can’t wait to see what plans God has in store for me and I’m excited to be pursuing Him with a clear mind and an open heart.

Great resource

This has been a life-saving book for me at a time I really needed it.
The breakdown daily has been so helpful too.

A practical 40 day devotional to love life sober

This devotional is an easy to follow guide for a 40 day sabbatical from alcohol. It is vulnerable and real and encouraging. There is no guilt or shame in it for lifestyle choices. It’s a great coach/ guide with practical easy to respond to daily journaling prompts along your 40 day sabbatical. It’s faith in Christ based so very encouraging in your walk with Jesus.

More Than Quit Lit—A Scripture-Shifted Return to My Self

I loved Christy’s honesty, her use of Scripture, and the way this book became more of a spiritual mirror than just a sobriety tool. I didn’t expect it to deepen my connection with God, but it absolutely did. There was nothing I disliked—this book is filled with grace and wisdom. This book can be used any 40 days of the year!! Thanks for sharing a piece of your story Christy. Blessings and Gratitude to you. Roe

Just what I’ve been looking for!

This book is truly just what I’ve been looking for! The daily focus and ways to take action are helping me gain the traction I need to make a Christ centered change! It has been so helpful to hear Christy’s words when I need them most and to reflect on Christ’s calling for me!

Best resource I’ve come across for Christian sobriety seekers

I’ve been devouring resources since I began pursuing sobriety and I was often frustrated at the options that focused on the really bad boozy days of old with not much of helping me look forward to sober life. Christy masterfully captures the snares of alcohol spiritually, emotionally, and physically. She shared some well timed boozy bad behavior stories but she mostly turned my eyes to look to Christ, self examine with hope in Christ, and highlighted alllll the positives of sober life.

I listened on Audible but immediately ordered a paper copy so I can go back through and do the journaling activities.
