ColleenWaitWrites: Book review for "Lessons Learned at Summer Camp"

Why the blog?

I write as the Spirit moves me. I have prayed about what I'm supposed to do with my life a lot. A lot. Writing. Writing is what I believe God is leading me to do. Whether or not He wants me to write for anyone to read is His business. Much of my writing has been therapy for me so maybe I'm the only one who is supposed to read it. So, why the Blog? As a sounding board, a note pad, a place to keep my ideas and thoughts. A place to share and promote my books, and photography. Written prayers, a place to vent. Possibly, even a place for the unknown reader to learn about the love of Jesus.

Book review for "Lessons Learned at Summer Camp"

"Lessons Learned at Summer Camp" answers the questions "Why wasn't I told these things? Why didn't I know?" This short inspirational fiction for teen girls and the mothers, counselors and teachers who love them confronts the wordly challenges faced by teens everywhere. Told through the memories of Angel, a summer camp counselor, who shares her story with the girls in her dorm room. She opens her heart to the girls who doubt the value of purity, as she tells of being a good girl who fell in "love", slipped into sexual promiscuity, alcholism, and a disasterous marriage.

Not only will this book open dialog between adults and teens, but will encourage and empower women who are struggling in ungodly relationships.
