""The practical guide you need to stop questioning your purpose and instead give the gift God has graciously placed within you.""-Ashley Morgan Jackson, bestselling author of Tired of Trying When the darkness of the world feels overwhelming, we wonder, Where can I find light? And even more, How can I be the light? Pediatric nurse Allyson Golden faces the hardest realities of life-and death-every day. She longed to be a light for Christ in every patient's room, but she didn't know what that looked like when she could hardly find that light herself. As Allyson immersed herself in Scripture, she began to understand the transformative truth that we have no power to shine on our own, but the Light of the World shines through us-and no darkness can overcome it. In Arise and Shine, Allyson explores our deepest questions- . Can Jesus shine through me even when I doubt His presence? . Does shining God's light mean being cheerful all the time? . How can I hold on to God's light-and is that even a thing? .Why is it so hard to give my burdens to God? . Is the darkness ever going to go away? With practical action steps at the end of every chapter, Arise and Shine helps you renew your mind, recharge your spirit, and take a positive step forward, because nothing can dim the light inside of you."
