Pirouettes, Pathways, and Prayers Bonni Skipworth

This collection of writings is truly a treasure for those who hunger after the heart of God. Bonni shares her most intimate encounters with her holy and loving Lord as He teaches her and guides her through life. Her calling is not just to "know the Lord," but to teach others how to know Him, and know Him intimately. "I suppose you might say this is a mishmash of unexpected, unusual, and unpredictable experiences, encounters, and events," says Bonni Skipworth, an ordained minister, college professor, and prison chaplain in Nashville. "But is that not how life unfolds, through experiences that bless and break, lift up and lay low, reveal and refine?" From "Lessons From Living," Bonni challenges all: 1. When the Holy Spirit comes to me, am I receptive? 2. When the Holy Spirit convicts me, am I repentant? 3. When the Holy Spirit teaches me, am I listening? 4. When the Holy Spirit wants to glorify God through me, am I willing?
