Finding Refuge

Finding Refuge: A Year in His Story Reading the Bible can be a daunting task. If we are truly seeking to know God and ourselves, we must dig in! Author Jodie Montgomery begins her new book, Finding Refuge: A Year in His Story, by describing herself as an "anorexic" Christian; a Christian that was living on barely enough scriptural nourishment to even feel secure in her own salvation. Thankfully, in time and with Bible study, Jodie became fed by the Word and discovered the importance of reading His story to improve her story. Finding Refuge: A Year in His Story is a reading plan to help readers journey through the Bible in a year: 44 weeks of Bible reading and 8 weeks of restful reflection. The plan includes devotional writings from Jodie, as your traveling companion through His Word, that share aspects of her life, her marriage and children, and how God is faithful to reveal Himself to His children. The inspiration for Jodie's Bible reading plan was the fact that many, including herself, didn't see the relevance of God's Word to their lives. They didn't view Jesus as a Refuge in this world. Outside of knowing He brought salvation to our lives, it wasn't until Jodie started reading His story that she came to know the Savior as an everlasting source of wisdom, hope, strength, and refreshment. Time in the Bible is time devoted to not only learning who Jesus is, daily, in our lives, but also a time of worshiping the One True God. Jodie Montgomery has led Women's Ministry at area Bible Studies and her church for over twenty-five years; over thirteen years as a Women's Ministry Manager at Idlewild Baptist Church. She celebrates life by taking walks with her husband Scott and having game nights with her grown children Samuel, Sarah & Susan. She is a graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary. She enjoys seeing others discover His Life through His Word. About the Illustrator: Lourdes Sanabria's love of His Word developed into an expression of her faith through Scripture art.

You may witness Lourdes' tenderness in her art and in her vocation as a pediatric occupational therapist.
