Book Reviews

Speaks to Your Soul in a deep and uplifting way

“This book is a true treasure. It spoke to me so much that I bought a 2nd copy to gift to a friend! The imagery and stories for each one are so inspirational, and the way Amy brings it around to everyday behaviors is truly enlightening. This book is wonderfully written, easy to read and understand, and spiritually uplifting. Buy one for yourself and one for anyone you know that can use a little sunshine in their lives! -Sundi S., In Plain Sight

So Inspirational

“Sights of Faith and Amy’s faith journey are truly inspirational. Her life experiences reveal the development of her relationship with God and give the reader a path to how we might all further enhance our relationship. I love how she captures the beauty of the cross with the clouds as a backdrop. I’m keeping this book on my coffee table as I love to re-visit the pictures, poems, and stories.” Julie Z., Sights of Faith

Beauty & Spiritual Wisdom

“The photos in this volume are unique and eye catching. The commentary on each photo is worthy of reflection. I experience reading it as a spiritual tonic. It increases my awareness to perceive unexpected crosses which remind me of the sacrifice of Jesus for our salvation. I recommend this volume for its beauty and spiritual wisdom.” -Cliff R, In Plain Sight Vol. II

Authentic & Inspiring

“Amy’s gift for seeing visual reminders of God’s presence in the everyday world is a joyful reminder of God’s constant presence. She sees them not only in beautiful places, but in broken ones; a cracked stepping stone or parking lot, a boarded up gas station. It’s a great reminder that even though each of us is broken we can still share God’s love with the world around us. Her writing matches her visual style; authentic and inspirational. For me, her book’s been a reminder that we can see God at work in the world every day, if we only slow down and look.” -Michael T., In Plain Sight

Beautiful Book

“I originally purchased this book as a gift. When it arrived, I fell in love with the photos and with Amy’s words. The book is now a welcome addition to my bookshelf where I open it regularly when I need to find space for calm or inspiration in my day.” Heather Z., Sights of Faith

Inspiring & Meaningful

“I love Amy’s work. Her insight, attention to detail and ability to capture everyday crosses in a unique and artistic way is inspiring. By coupling her images with with relevant scripture, she provides context, meaning and relevance. I thoroughly enjoy how she and the other contributors find beauty in what may be considered a mundane object or environment.” -Dave H., In Plain Sight Vol. II
