 Verified Many tools to carve your path to Christ
I love how this book summarizes tools and practical ways in each chapter on how to strengthen your connection to yourself and to Christ. It has questions for self reflection and inner dialogue to help the reader understand and ponder the direction and avenues they have taken in their own life and how to navigate a more positive course in a turbulent world. I love the openness Marnie shares about all the ways she has discovered how to strengthen her core self and walking closer to Christ. Ways to find peace, to find strength and to tap into nature and all it has to offer. Many Christians would question some of the avenues she shares but the beauty is how she shows the intention behind it and how it's key to where we can find Christ since He is everywhere if we just look and keep an open mind and open heart, we can discover even more about Him and answers we are seeking. I love all the experiences Marnie shares in this book as they are some that I have experienced as well. So many possibilities and practical ways to find answers about ourselves and Christi. I highly recommend this well written book.

 Verified Finding Peace
Marnie’s book is so insightful and enlightening! As I read each chapter, things would come to mind that I wanted to do better. Marnie combines everyday experiences and life lessons with inspirational thoughts and scripture to make this a very uplifting book. It makes me want to do better. I want to enjoy more time in nature and focus on more important things in my life. I especially love the “your turn” at the end of each chapter. This isn’t a book you want to read fast but you will feel inspired as you savor each page. I look forward to getting the journal and cards too. Thanks, Marnie for sharing your thoughts and feelings!

 Verified A Truly Inspiring Book That Will Bring You Closer to the Savior and Finding Peace in This World!
This book brought back so many memories of my younger days when I was struggling to not only find God, but was searching to discover so many unanswered questions, especially after the death of my father when I was fifteen. I remember that the only place I could find even the slightest bit of solitude and peace was when I was alone and surrounded by nature. Whether it was hiking alone in the mountains or sitting on my favorite rock overlooking the desert, or sitting on the lifeguard stand at the beach at night, watching the silver-capped waves crashing onto the shore in the moonlight ... it was where I pondered about life and death, who we really are, where did we come from, and why are we here, along with hundreds of deep, thought-provoking questions regarding the mysteries of life and death and where do we go from there?Reading Marnie's book made me realize just how much I have missed by letting the busy-ness of life get in the way of these special moments. She truly has a way with words as she shares her life experiences, stories, insights, and other helpful words of encouragement and support, and reminds us that we all are children of God and were given that special spiritual light that she describes as our Core Sacred Self.In this book, she guides us on own spiritual journey, giving us key steps to follow so that we can once again, find that spiritual awakening as we leave behind the man-made technolologies and things of this world to go back and rediscover God's natural creations. By doing so, we can rediscover a spiritual connection with everything in nature, and draw upon the life-giving energy that will help us renew our spirits, find inner peace and calmness that will in turn, help us to deal with the complexities of life.I highly recommend this book if you are searching to find more peace, tranquility, and calmness in your hectic life. I plan on purchasing the journal to go along with this book and by taking this journey, hope to let go of the stress and anxieties in my life and learn to enjoy the simple things, the things that bring joy in these later years before I leave this world.Thank you, Marnie, for a truly inspiring book!

 Verified Applicable to Today
I admit I was given an advanced electronic copy to read. I'm so very glad I accepted it. Marnie Pehrson Kuhns is an inspiring, insightful writer. Here in Northern Utah, we've been dumped on time and again this season and even had temperatures range in the -30s. Since I didn't dare venture outside, I was allowing the weather to dictate how I felt about nature, God, myself, and others. I started reading "Finding Peace in a Turbulent World: Living in Sacred Nature" just to pass the time and consider what I might share in a review. Little did I know the impact these words would have on me as I allowed them to sink in. I'm living in a turbulent season of the year. My world is turbulent. My thoughts are turbulent. This amazing book has the power to lift you out of that, planning moments and recognizing messages for calm and peace in God's gift of Sacred Nature. I'm purchasing a hard copy for sure! I highly recommend this book to anyone who desires to find peace in our troubled world. May the wisdom within help you as it has helped me!

 Verified Very Inspiring
As I read this book I could feel myself outside and I longed to sit on a rock or lean on a tree and feel the sun on my face. Marnie does a wonderful job of demonstrating how we can see and feel the sacredness of nature. She shares personal experiences that are uplifting, enlightening and inspiring. She doesn't claim to have all the answers but encourages the reader to search for their own answers and gives excellent suggestions for how to go about doing that. This book is well written, it flows, and gives the reader clear steps to try and questions to answer as they work toward their own personal peace. I'm ready to read a second time with journal in hand (you can buy a companion journal).
