Something About Me and My Book:

ABOUT ME: With a degree in art from Meredith College, photographer and Christian writer Jean A. Sturgill is a woman with a strong Baptist faith. She and her husband have two sons and live in Mebane, North Carolina.


For anyone seeking a truer perspective of life, You Are Who God Says You Are: 8 Steps to Overcoming the Past by Jean A. Sturgill is an enlightening text that serves as a workbook to read and study the Bible and one’s personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Broken into eight steps with titles such as “FEAR: Faith and the Power to Overcome,” “LOVE: Yourself and Others,” and “SOUND MIND: Knowing Who God Says You Are,” the author unearths the tools to begin making a difference. By helping readers set themselves up to succeed through a series of meaningful journaling exercises and prompted Bible studies, she exacts a space to free one’s mind from the past to become what God expects and what He wants. To help define and articulate one’s relationship with Jesus, the author takes readers down a path of self-awareness and enlightenment for which the reader will be grateful.

 

The book of Genesis literally comes alive in Bouncing Beaver Discovers God by Christian writer and photographer Jean A. Sturgill. Inspired by her own children’s awe of the natural world, the author enlists the help of two young boys to retell the Bible’s creation story. Robbie and Drew are brothers and best friends. They like to play and explore everything—sometimes on the Internet. Drew even has his own website about all sorts of animals in God’s kingdom. One day, they come face to face with the precocious, spunky, and rather eager Bouncing Beaver and she quite literally jumps off the website. She has a few questions and in her quest to learn more about the love of God, the two brothers join together to help teach her about creation and that God is all knowing, all powerful and that He is everywhere.

    Jean, your book sounds delightful! Years ago I bought a book called "I'd Like To Ask God" by Nancy Spiegelberg (now a close friend), and it was my favorite children's book. The art work was spectacular! Sadly, it's out of print now. Is your book for sale on Amazon?

    I send you greetings of peace and love from the rest of the family. They, like I, are always with you and never leave or forsake you. The angels and the rest of us want you to know how precious you are to us.

    When I agreed to give up my divinity and be born in the flesh, I did so very willingly. I looked forward to the time when we, you and us, could all be together and share in everything that is. I looked forward to loving you, hugging you, comforting you and encouraging you so that, when your life gets tough, you will feel secure and supported enough to face whatever you have to face. I looked forward to being the one you could rely upon unconditionally for that strength, comfort and encouragement whenever and however you need it.

    Not only that, I looked forward to sharing with you that we created you to love you, and that we so hoped and desired that you would love us back. We want you in our life, and we love it when you want us in yours. It was so exciting when I could turn to my disciples and expand our relationship to include friendship and true fellowship. I offer that friendship and fellowship to you today as well, and I look forward to your inviting me into your life in that way.

    You can see there are many reasons why I came in the flesh so many years ago. There’s more! I also wanted to set you free from thoughts and behaviors that hurt you emotionally and spiritually. If you were hurt by people or experienced hard times in your life and lost things like your health, relationships, or your way of life because of disaster or unemployment, I wanted to give you the tips and tools as well as the encouragement to recover emotionally and spiritually from who or what hurt you so you could have the kind of life I want you to enjoy.

    Most of you understand why I sacrificed my life for you and what an act of love that was. It is my hope that this letter will help you understand how very much more my life and ministry were to accomplish. I look forward to expanding our relationship now and forever.

    Joyfully, Jesus
