Why am I passionate about this?

I am a child of God, an heir to the throne through Jesus Christ, and a living testimony to the great I Am. I have 4 children who keep me young. I have been with my spouse for 20 years (married for 10). I run a Facebook page called “Jesus Loves All of Us,” where I share daily devotionals. I opened a publishing company called Stewardship Press a few years ago, which is linked to this page. I have written over 20 books, journals, coloring books, and devotionals, most of which are Christ-centered. The others that do not have Christian content are still morally and ethically upstanding secular content.

Book cover of You Are Stronger than You Think: Unleash the Power to Go Bigger, Go Bold, and Go Beyond What Limits You

Ashley DeMarcos Why did I love this book?

Joel Osteen's book is like a shot of espresso for my soul. It's not your typical self-help book; it makes me feel empowered. What struck me is Osteen's inclusive approach. He's all about lifting you up, no matter where you're at—no matter who you love, where you work, or what your social standing is—he's there with the message of complete and unconditional love from the Lord. 

And the way he blends scripture with messages of love and grace, it’s powerful stuff. This book made me feel like I could conquer anything. Trust me, it's worth diving into.

Book cover of Authentically, Uniquely You: Living Free from Comparison and the Need to Please

Ashley DeMarcos Why did I love this book?

Each page of this book resonated with me for its powerful message. Joyce let me know without a doubt that I am not just another face in the crowd; I’m uniquely crafted with purpose.

What really struck a chord with me was her emphasis on embracing your individuality. In a world that tries to mold us into something we're not, this book is a gentle reminder that God made each of us with distinct gifts and talents. It's not about fitting into a certain mold; it's about fully embracing who I am and allowing God to work through my strengths and weaknesses. 

The book is easy to understand, straight to the point, and packed with wisdom that hits home. Joyce is also darn funny.

Book cover of He Chose the Nails: What God Did to Win Your Heart

Ashley DeMarcos Why did I love this book?

This book reshaped my understanding of faith during a pivotal moment in my life. I was right smack dab in the middle of giving my life over to Christ. I was looking forward to being baptized and doing a lot of studying on my own, but I couldn't quite wrap my head around what “exactly” Jesus’ death did for me on the cross. This book opened my eyes. 

This book was not just about learning the facts of Jesus' sacrifice; it was about experiencing the profound love and acceptance that comes with it. By the last page, I completely understood what happened at the cross and what it meant to me.

Lucado's ability to unravel the Easter story in a way that's both deeply insightful and surprisingly light-hearted. It's like he's peeling back the layers of Scripture to reveal the heart of God in a whole new light. Highly recommend!

What is this book about?

Is your heart unsettled by the chaos of the world? Are you heavy-laden with bad moments, mad moments, or anxious moments? Today, rest in God's self-giving love and leave all your troubles at the foot of the cross.

There were no accidents on the days surrounding Jesus' death. Jesus' last moments were not left up to chance. God chose the path; he selected the nails. Our Lord planted the trio of crosses and painted the sign. God was never more sovereign than in the details of the death of his Son. God didn't have to do all these things, you…


Book cover of Grace: More Than We Deserve, Greater Than We Imagine

Ashley DeMarcos Why did I love this book?

This book explores the vastness of grace; I read it at a time when I couldn't quite grasp what in the heck grace even was. I was struggling to understand what God's grace does for us and why it was so important—I know the craziness that sounds like at this point in time, but back then when I was a wee baby Christian, it was not making sense for me. Max presents it as a wild, relentless force that pursues and transforms us. He makes it a point to clarify that grace is everything Jesus—His actions, words, and essence. That was profound to me. 

After I read this book I realized that "there is nothing you can do to get grace—grace gets you." This shifted my perspective from earning grace to embracing it as a gift from God through Jesus that empowers change.

I am more secure in my faith, and I'm excited about the journey ahead. If you are where I was and you're seeking a deeper understanding of God’s grace, this is a must-read. Lucado’s heartfelt writing clarifies and challenges us to experience grace gracefully and let it transform our lives.
