Ramblings from the Shower by Faye Bryant
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Reminding me of Erma Bombeck,”Ramblings from the Shower” is both an emotional and human look of how God reaches to us in our oddest moments, be it when we are completely unguarded in the shower, to when we are hurting at our most, that He reaches out to us and us to Him.
There were moments I found myself smiling and nodding in agreement while others, just wiping away tears as I read of Faye Bryant’s experiences and her love for the Lord as she reaches out to show how much we do matter to Him.
“Ramblings from the Shower” is straight from the heart and encourages the reader to find strength that can be found in the Lord; Written in a way that everyone can find a connection to, in both good times and in bad times too.
There is a very authentic voice and Faye speaks clearly about living with faith, an authentic faith and with integrity and talks plainly to all about how we have all been there and can get through at the same time.
I personally like,”Pedestals and Potato Soup” which I think we have all encountered on both ends of the spectrum and just really illustrates how openly and honest, Faye writes in, “Ramblings from the Shower”.
After reading that particular chapter, it left me crying and smiling and going, yes, on both ends, how putting people on pedestals or being put on a pedestal with false expectations can be difficult. It was such a reminder of how we can often create a mental image of what we think a person is or expect a person to be and, she really helps the reader the repercussions to both parties.
“Ramblings from the Shower” is more than just that one chapter and there are many more to be discovered, which makes this a book that is so well worth getting.
You will laugh,cry and find yourself, comforted, knowing you’re not the only one, as you read, “Ramblings from the Shower” and discovered a book that captures the spirit and truth of an authentic walk with God.

This sounds like such a good book. It seems like it is more of a personal read. One that every woman might enjoy.
