Hope Unfolding gives moms hope and assurance of God’s unique plan for your life, even if it’s not the plan you expected. The book starts with Becky sharing her plans for her life and who she would marry and many other expectations she had. But she soon found out God had a very different plan for her.
As the story unfolds, you will see the amazing story of hope and how it shapes us and changes us into more than we ever thought we could be.

A Heart-to-Heart Talk
Reading Hope Unfolding is like sitting down and having a heart-to-heart talk with your best girlfriend. Becky shares how God has worked in her life and brought her to places she never expected. All along the way, she shows us that many times God’s plan for our lives is much bigger than anything we ever imagined for ourselves.

As Becky shares her story, you will be drawn in. She has an amazing story-telling style that also beautifully points us to the rich truth of God’s plan. As a mom, you will relate to the experiences she shares – the happy moments, the sad moments, and the funny moments because we all have them. Through it all, you see God’s faithfulness.
As you read each chapter you will be encouraged and assured. You aren’t alone in your journey as a mom and God has an amazing plan for all of us.
I highly recommend Hope Unfolding, it will encourage and inspire you to see God’s plans in your life in a new, fresh way.
Your turn…
How has God worked in your life or changed your life plans? I would love to hear about your story of grace and hope.
I also really loved this book, Rachel! I wrote a review of it, as well, if you want to check it out: http://www.thejoyfuladvocate.com/2016/04/book-review-hope-unfolding/
I think one of the greatest ways God has worked in my life to change my heart to align with His is in my work. I always planned to be a teacher and even finished my degree with two small kiddos at home to teach for two years. It was literally an all-of-a-sudden thing when I realized I was being called to be a homemaker instead. The amount of personal growth I’ve experienced over the past year of being home is incredible and nothing short of amazing. I went from not knowing anything about budgeting, creating a cleaning schedule, meal planning, etc. to actually thriving in these areas. This is SO not what I planned for myself but it is truly so much better. His plans are always better!
Hi Brittany, this is a great book. Thank you for sharing how God worked in your life and changed your plans to create a better life for you.
