Mothers of the Bible (women's devotional)--March 2009. An affordable gift for every mother in your family or church, Mothers of the Bible is brimming with biblical encouragement for busy moms. 31 uplifting meditations explore the lives of Hannah, Mary, Sarah, Eve, and others. Brief biographies, Scripture verses, illuminating insights, and application questions encourage mothers to pursue God in every area of their lives.
Grace for the Race: Meditations for Busy Moms (humorous women's non-fiction; devotional)--November 2004. A book for moms by a mom, which encourages readers to surrender their time, relationships, and schedule to God. Full of real-life stories, scripture, and humor, Grace for the Race reminds women that they're not crazy, they're not alone--and that God delights in them, just as they are. Melissa Parcel of Bookloons.com says, “Each section imparts wisdom, humor, and just the right amount of encouragement for moms who are burned out, busy, and needing a pick-me-up. . . For moms (including myself) who struggle with perfectionism and busyness, Dena Dyer's transparency is refreshing.”
The Groovy Chicks' Road Trip to Peace (humorous women's non-fiction; compilation)--June 2006. Dena co-compiled this book with Laurie Barker Copeland, and she calls it “Chicken Soup meets Laugh-In with a Christian twist.” Delving into this chick-lit anthology, you'll find stories (from real women, some of them well-known authors) about infertility, depression, churchiness versus godliness, and much, much more! And as if the trip weren't unpredictable enough, the authors' 60's alter-egos, Starshine and Pepper, provide wacky, wise, and sometimes-poignant sidebars. So grab your lava lamp, jump in the van --and be inspired to live life to the fullest.
The Groovy Chicks' Road Trip to Love (humorous women's non-fiction; compilation)--June 2005. This anthology, a sequel to The Groovy Chicks’ Road Trip to Peace, features true stories about relationships with God, others, and ourselves from women of all ages and personalities. TGCRTL reminds women that if you love to laugh, see life as a celebration, and have Christ in you, then you ARE a groovy chick! So if you're in a groovy mood--or if you just need to laugh--set aside your cares, and let the Groovy Chicks drive you from fear to faith, from hurt to healing, and from chaos to contentment!
