Edie MelsonEdie Melson wrote Soul Care: When You’re Weary.  The idea behind the book is that when we are tired and in a crisis and we need God more than ever. Unfortunately, we have no energy.

It is five short chapters. Each chapter has devotions, prayers and creative activities.  We need to make time in our life to be creative.

We are a society that is exhausted.  Surprisingly, we think that playing is wasting time.  Edie has found that when many people play, they are energized.

When Edie shares about the woman that was to be stoned it was very moving.  She shares an activity using stones.

Edie closes with sharing to those out there that feel weary.  If you missed our live interview, you can watch the interview here.
