About this ebook
Finally, a book of meditations for African American women that understands the world they live in. Centering on the lessons God teaches us at work, at church, and in our relationships, this book of devotions uses stories and settings that will resonate with women of color--urban life, office culture, and the leading of the Spirit in things large and small. Using Scripture, conventional wisdom, and stories from the African American community, each devotional will show women how their faith can empower them to have success on the job--at whatever workplace they find themselves. With topics such as respect, resourcefulness, image, timeliness, honesty, negativity, and balancing work and home, each devotion ends with a "power move"--practical affirmations that will move readers toward success at work.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5"Carol Mackey has done a masterful job of incorporating the practicality of God's Word into daily meditations. The down-to-earth insights she shares meet us where we really live and will empower all who read Sistergirl Devotions. Carol does not shrink from the real issues we often struggle with. She addresses them boldly, giving clear answers and 'power moves' to equip us to have the victory we long to experience in our everyday lives."--Michelle McKinney Hammond, author of The Power of Being a Woman "Sistergirl Devotions is by far one of the best self-help books I have read in a very long time. It is truly awesome, and Carol Mackey masterfully weaves in Scripture, invaluable wisdom, and her own personal experiences. Sistergirl Devotions is a wonderfully written must-read for women everywhere. Absolutely brilliant!"--Kimberla Lawson Roby, New York Times bestselling author; author of A Deep Dark Secret and Be Careful What You Pray For "Carol Mackey's Sistergirl Devotions delivers inspiring daily nuggets that will warm the soul and motivate every reader to succeed on the job for the Lord."--Stephanie Perry Moore, author of the Payton Skky series and the Beta Gamma Pi series Sistergirl Devotions by Carol M. Mackey is broken down into 90 life lessons. This book is ideal for a Women's Bible Study Group or a focused Sunday School Class. Mackey's chapter titles are so informative for a Christian education teacher that they can create their own Sunday School Class Curriculum coupling twelve life lessons together, which have similar subject matters (i.e. working moms, working wives, office politics.) Most importantly, readers can use this book as a guide to help them navigate themselves toward and through the corporate ceiling without having to lay down their religion to get there. Sistergirl Devotions is more than a devotional. Mackey gives partners life lessons with personal anecdotes, scriptural reference, action plans [her power moves] and guided prayer for readers to use when they connect with a topic. Kudos!
