Book Description
Finding God Every Day God is present to us in ways too numerous to count. Unfortunately, we are often so busy that we fail to recognize and respond to this active presence. A Catholic Woman’s Book of Days offers daily meditations that clear a spiritual place—a time in our day when we can set our hearts on God. The meditations are brief, pointed, direct, and personal—and will connect you to God’s word and the Catholic faith.While a number of successful devotionals for women have been published for the general Christian market, A Catholic Woman's Book of Days is the first resource in the Catholic market featuring daily devotions and prayers for women. Written by Amy Welborn, the devotional entries are pointed and brief, and help Catholic women connect their everyday concerns with God's Word in the context of their Catholic faith. Each entry is introduced by a Scripture verse and followed by a one-sentence prayer. These devotions and prayers are sure to provide Catholic women with a dose of God's grace each day of the year.

Book Description
Every one of us is made in the image of God. We are unique, we are worthy of love, and we are called to greatness. In this world, though, it can be easy to be distracted from that truth and begin to doubt God's love is real. We live in a world that tells us we are not smart enough, not pretty enough, not sexy enough, not rich enough, not thin enough, and don t have enough friends. It's easy to focus on the ways we fall short of worldly perfection and to forget that we are already made perfect. We are already enough. God has made each of us for a unique purpose, and he calls each of us to know him in unique ways. In a world where everything feels fleeting and temporary, we are made for everlasting life; we are meant to experience God's abiding love. You Are Enough uses the timeless tales of the Bible to clarify that truth for modern women. ● See how God's love for each of us shines forth through the stories of the women of the Old Testament. ● Connect with the hopes, dreams, struggles, and experiences of these remarkable women. ● Learn how the lives of these women contain valuable lessons for our lives today. ● Find hope and encouragement as you discover that you are enough, you are accepted for who you are as a beloved daughter of God.

She is passionate about truth-telling, showing her mess and meeting people exactly where they are. Here's what other women had to say about Diana and this challenge: "I have to say, this challenge far exceeded my expectations. I learned a great deal even though I thought I already knew quite a bit. I love how real Diana is and how she made me laugh. I've always enjoyed her videos and her Sunday gospel reflections. She gives information in a way that is easy to understand and relate to. I really can't think of anything I would change about this challenge." "Diana, thank you for this challenge. I thanked God today for giving me the courage to take the challenge! I have enjoyed these 7 days and have questioned everything I thought I knew and everything wrong I have been doing in my life. Today was the first day I felt God's presence as I was sitting in mass listening to the homily. I am slowly working the courage up to attend confession." "Thank you, Diana, for creating this challenge! It is so well written and I enjoyed it so much! I am a morning person and waking up early before my kids is when I get my "me" time, which I like to spend in prayer. Often times though I feel unsure of what I should be doing/saying to be productive in prayer. I love how you walk me through it and the specific action steps are so helpful!!" "I love Diana's videos. I can't think of anything else that would make this challenge better. It's so well rounded and seems to have something for everyone--no matter where they are in their faith life. Awesome challenge!" "I found every day of the challenge helpful. I was most excited about Days 4 and 5. God is so good. Diana is an awesome light in the darkness to so many who don't know better and are too scared to talk about so many issues. Keep up the great work. This was so helpful." "I really found every single day of the challenge helpful. There's so much I don't know and am still learning. All the information was super helpful. I love the resources she shares that allowed you to learn, read, or listen to even more about that particular day's challenge." "This challenge is a great tool...I was a Director of Religious Ed for 10 years and was always looking for teaching and growing tools for my catechisms. She's got a good thing going here" "Diana, I wanted to say a huge thank you for this challenge. As a 50 year old empty nester, I can say I sure wish I had someone like you when I was a young Catholic wife/mother. You are touching lives, bringing women to the faith, and inspiring even us old gals. You have a gift, continue to share it, it's definitely your ministry. You will be in my prayers. God Bless!

Book Description
Are you missing half the story about the last days? Virtually all attention these days is focused on the coming Antichrist—but he is only half the story. Many people are amazed to discover in Revelation 17 that there is also another mysterious character at the heart of prophecy—a woman who rides the beast. Who is this woman? Tradition says she is connected with the church of Rome. But isn’t such a view outdated? After all, today’s Vatican is eager to join hands with Protestants worldwide. “The Catholic church has changed” is what we hear. Or has it? In A Woman Rides the Beast, prophecy expert Dave Hunt sifts through biblical truth and global events to present a well-defined portrait of the woman and her powerful place in the Antichrist’s future empire. Eight remarkable clues in Revelation 17 and 18 prove the woman’s identity beyond any reasonable doubt. A provocative account of what the Bible tells us is to come.
