Oct. 1st Release of e-Book & Paperback for What’s the Story, Morning Glory?

YES … it’s finally here on October 1st, so mark your calendars for my new “quirky” devotional, WHAT’S THE STORY, MORNING GLORY?

Wait … a “quirky” devotional?? Is that even spiritual?? Oh, honey, you have no idea!

My new memoir devotional, WHAT’S THE STORY, MORNING GLORY, is what I would call “DIRT PRACTICAL” because it’s real-life trials and tribulations totally transformed by the Word of God.

And you know why? Because application of God’s precepts to our lives turns tears into cheers—be it in marriage, single life, raising children, your occupation, your health, you name it. At least it has for me for over 50 years, and I’ve got the stories to prove it!

And so does my husband, the poor guy! But despite his trials and tribulations in living with me, he says that, “Reading this book is like reading the Bible and enjoying it! Or reading it with illustrations that show you how to apply it.” — Keith Lessman

And you know what? It is! Because it’s GOD’S STORY transforming ours!


Here’s what others are saying about Morning Glory:

—  “The most unique, heartfelt devotional I’ve ever read. What’s the Story, Morning Glory goes far beyond its lovely cover to encompass every season we find ourselves in from one who has made THE ONE her passion throughout life. Richly layered and relatable, with excerpts from her bestselling novels, this is a keeper shelf treasure!” —Laura Frantz, award-winning author of The Indigo Heiress

—  “I’m not a fan of devotionals. Many seem trite, a bit pretentious, and leave me longing for more…but this one is so much more! This is a journey deep into the heart and soul of real life with all its struggles, pains, heartaches, and yearnings. Everything … is proven by the Word of God, and the lessons therein will prove valuable over and over to anyone who reads this. —MaryLu Tyndall, award-winning author of the Legacy of the King’s Pirates Series

—  “I love Julie Lessman and her passion for God. This devotional is something I’ve been wanting from her for a long time. Thank you, Julie!” —Mary Connealy, Award-winning author of A Western Light series

—  “This devotional will make you laugh, think, and drive you into the lap of a loving Father. Julie Lessman’s unique way of tackling real issues and bringing scriptures into the midst makes this an eye-opening read.”  —Anne Perrault,  popular author of The Protect and Serve Series 

—  “If you want to read many deep spiritual truths from the Bible, be entertained by a fabulous novelist, and be encouraged in your Christian walk, read What’s the Story, Morning Glory? Julie Lessman digs deeply into her own life and bares her soul in this book to speak to those who might be struggling, or maybe just stumbling, as they seek to follow Christ. I recommend this nonfiction book wholeheartedly. —Hannah Alexander, acclaimed author of The Hallowed Halls of Medicine series.

CALLING ALL BLOGGERS!

A LITTLE HELP FOR MY FRIENDS!

MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR NOV. 1-14 FOR PRIZES GALORE!

SUMMER SALES, ANYONE?

Read my prior blog including excerpt from Henry’s story HERE!

 

Calling All Bloggers!

 

ARE YOU A BLOGGER WHO WOULD LIKE TO REVIEW MY NEW DEVOTIONAL?

If so, you can sign up now for the blog tour scheduled for SEPTEMBER 24-28, 2024, handled by JustRead Blog Tours. All you have to do is sign up at the following link:

SIGN-UP HERE FOR
WHAT’S THE STORY,

MORNING GLORY?
BLOG TOUR

Regrettably, per JustRead rules, the tour is open to Bloggers only (Instagram & other social media accounts do not count as blogs for tour purposes), and the tour has digital copies only. (Only 1 copy of the book will be provided for the same host on multiple tours of this title.)

BUT … for Journal Jot bloggers, if you sign up for my blog tour and state you are a Journal Jot reader, I will personally send you a signed paperback copy of the book after the blog tour is over, so just contact me through my website.

For those of you who are non-bloggers, the e-book is now available for pre-order, and I am hoping the paperback will be available for a pre-order discount very soon as well, prior to the release date of October 1, 2024.

As mentioned in my last blog, this is the HARDEST book I have ever written and the one which I have been under the most attack from the enemy, so I’m pretty sure the devil hates it. Hopefully, you will like it because this is God’s book more than mine, chock-full of spiritual lessons God has taught me in my marriage, in raising my children, and in life in general, so I hope it blesses you.

Here’s the jacket blurb:

“DEAR LORD, JULIE … OUR WHOLE LIFE IS IN THIS BOOK!”

 

My heart went out to my sweet husband as he walked into our kitchen one day with a noticeable gulp, ashen-faced after reading my latest novel.“Yes, I know, babe,” I said with a repentant smile and a conciliatory hug, “but nobody really knows that.”

Ahem. Until now …

Trust me, “What’s the Story, Morning Glory? A Memoir Devotional with a ‘Novel’ Approach to Practical Christianityis not a book I wanted to write. As a novelist, I have never been partial to nonfiction, either reading it or writing it, but I had little choice when God convinced me otherwise through a number of point-blank arm-twistings I couldn’t deny and not-so-gentle proddings from family and friends.

Despite all the encouragement, I wasn’t really sure where to begin. “It will be fiction and nonfiction combined,” the Holy Spirit whispered within, and just like that, the idea for this book took flight. First, I would tell my “real” and very personal story behind the life-lesson stories in my novels, then I would follow it up with the excerpt from my books where I teach that same life lesson to my characters, finally culminating in corresponding Scriptures, a bulleted “Takeaway” list, and a related prayer.

Thus, What’s the Story, Morning Glory: A Memoir Devotional with a “Novel” Approach to Practical Christianity was born. A memoir devotional that when combined with scenes from my novels, becomes a “novotional” where I relate the life lessons God personally taught me through His Word. I am simply a child of God who applied these lessons and Biblical precepts to every situation in my life and consequently, saw nonstop answers to prayer and blessings galore. It is my profound hope and prayer that through my own very simple and personal stories and examples, I can do the same for others. Therefore, the format for each chapter of this book will be as follows:

 

      1. The Real Story (How I learned and applied the spiritual lesson in my own life)
      2. The Novel Story (The scene where I teach the spiritual lesson to my characters)
      3. The Scripture Story (Scriptures applicable to the spiritual lesson)
      4. The Takeaway Story (Bulletized points for spiritual lesson in easy-to-read/apply format)
      5. The Prayer Story (Specific prayer related to the spiritual lesson)

I pray this bottom-line, albeit somewhat quirky, 1-2-3 devotional blesses you as much as God’s spiritual life lessons have blessed me! Once the paperback is available for pre-order, I will send out another Journal Jot, but till then, you can pre-order the e-book below:

A Little Help for my Friends!

I very seldom do promotion of fellow authors or artists on my blog, but today I am going to make an exception.

The first friend I want to promote is Abigail Sloane, one of my long-time readers who is now a prominent Christian music artist that writes her own songs and performs them around the country.

Abbie is a beautiful young woman who is on fire for Christ and relates that passion in her music, particularly to ‘the broken and the hurting,’ proclaiming through Christ and her music ‘that there are better days ahead.’ 

“As someone who has battled depression and fought dark days, she wishes to equip those who hear her music with the same weapons that helped her to fight past the deepest nights. Her faith is what keeps her grounded and humble and she finds deep connections with those who are in her life. She seeks to make connections with more and more people that might need to hear words of encouragement.”

The biggest reason I wanted to promote Abbie (other than the fact she is adorable and a dear friend) is because of her newest record, Come Like the Rain, which touched me deeply. As a wordsmith, naturally I read the words first, then listened to the song, and it was SO powerful, I literally had to blink through tears in my eyes. I encourage to to take a listen by clicking on the title below to hear the song, and I promise you will LOVE it!

 

Come Like The Rain

The earth is groaning it’s crying out
For living water, here in this drought.
Wandering in wilderness, lost in a desert place
We need your mercy, Lord pour it out

So come like the rain
And take my last breath away
Fill my lungs with amazing grace
God we need you
We receive you
Oh, so come like the rain
Let me fall under every wave
I wanna be swept away
God we need you
We receive you
Oh, so come

A storm is coming, a holy flood
We’ll see the nations washed in your blood
So come fill this place
We know you will rule and reign
We want to see your kingdom come

So come like the rain
And take my last breath away
Fill my lungs with amazing grace
God we need you
We receive you
Oh, so come like the rain
Let me fall under every wave
I wanna be swept away
God we need you
We receive you
Oh, so come

One day every knee will bow before you
Every heart and every tongue will confess
You alone are Lord of salvation
Jesus, my Jesus

One day every knee will bow before you
Every heart and every tongue will confess
You alone are Lord of salvation
Jesus, my Jesus

One day every knee will bow before you
Every heart and every tongue will confess
You alone are Lord of salvation
Jesus, my Jesus

So come like the rain
And take my last breath away
Fill my lungs with amazing grace
God we need you
We receive you

Oh, so come like the rain
Let me fall under every wave
I wanna be swept away
God we need you
We receive you
Oh, so come

Oh, I want to be swept away
God we need you
We receive you
Oh, so come

 

Next, I’d like to introduce you to an up-and-coming Christian author, Melissa LaShure, who is releasing Book One in her Bounty Brothers series, Unwavering Faith, on February 1st, but you can YOU can read the first nine chapters for free by visiting her writer’s website, LiteraryScape.

What’s it about? Well, here’s the tagline—Tombstone Meets Dr. Quinn Medicine Womanbut you can check out lots of info and videos about the series on her crowdfunding campaign page HERE.

A lover of the Wild West, romance, and adventure, Melissa is launching her crowdfunding campaign to fund the publication of her book Unwavering Faith, a truly unique historical Christian suspense romance novel that I know you will enjoy, so I hope you check her links out.

A “LAME” SUMMER???

AT LAST … MY DEVOTIONAL IS UP FOR PRE-ORDER!

MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR NOV. 1-14 FOR PRIZES GALORE!

SUMMER SALES, ANYONE?

Read my prior blog including excerpt from Henry’s story HERE!

 

A “Lame” Summer?

Well, not really, at least not regarding my devotional which I FINALLY finished—thank you, Jesus!—but more about that below.

But physically? Oh, yeah, because this girl had bunion surgery that has laid me low for a while and for which I get to wear a really cute (NOT!) sandal for over a month. I can walk, but it’s not pretty, hobbling around putting weight only on my good leg and barely walking on my heel on the surgery foot.

But WHOA, what a difference it made and with almost NO pain, God’s truth! I always heard bunion surgery was one of the most painful, but I am happy to say that has not been my experience, and I attribute that all to prayer and really great surgeon! Check out the results to the right! Thank God, no more painful rubbing toe against toe. My sweet hubby is a great nurse, and my sweet son-in-law says now I can begin a new career as a foot model! 😉

 

Pre-Order Devotional Now!

DRUM ROLL, PLEASE!!

I am thrilled (reallllly thrilled because now I can move on to writing novels again!) to announce that my devotional (or I should say, “God’s devotional” since He was the One who forced me to write it!!) is now available for pre-order! And for those of you who prefer paperback, that will be available, too, come the release date of October 1, 2024.

I don’t mind saying that this is the HARDEST book I have ever written, and I hope and pray God NEVER asks me to write a nonfiction again. But … I will say that this devotional (aka “novotional”) is chock-full of spiritual lessons God has taught me in my marriage, in raising my children, and in life in general, so I hope it blesses you. Here’s the jacket blurb:

“DEAR LORD, JULIE … OUR WHOLE LIFE IS IN THIS BOOK!”
