    <![CDATA[<p>&quot;I believe that God wants to teach us how to dream again. I believe too that he wants to fulfill our dreams. It might not be in the way we anticipate, but if we are open to his heart, this great adventure will change us. It's a risky business to dream, for dreaming leaves us open to disappointment. But I think that when we stop dreaming, a part of us dies. So I say it's time to dream again, knowing that with God, nothing is impossible! Perhaps like Dorothy and Toto we might be in for the ride of our lives!&quot;</p><strong>Sheila uses stories from <em>The Wizard of Oz</em>, World Vision, her family, and the Bible to help women catch a vision for God's love for them and His desire to work through them, freeing them to dream again.</strong>]]>

    <![CDATA[<p><strong>Powerful and personal, <em>Get Off Your Knees and Pray</em> shows women that they have a lifeline straight to the heart of God.</strong></p>  <p>&quot;I've always shied away from this topic as I really stink at prayer,&quot; says Sheila. And she isn't alone. We know we can talk to God, but it just sounds so important, so intimidating, so <em>religious</em>. Only the very spiritual hear from Him directly. Only those who live as missionaries or in a monastery can really pray and move mountains. Right?</p><p>Wrong. Sheila has come a long way since the days when she shied away from prayer. In fact, today she says, &quot;Every sound we utter, every thank you we say, every tear we cry in God's presence is prayer.&quot; Her life message has always been <em>You are loved by God just as you are.</em> If we are loved as we are, we can talk to God as we are.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[<p>At a time that should have been considered the highlight of her career, Sheila Walsh admitted herself to the psychiatric wing of a Washington, D.C. hospital. Having worked for five years as cohost of <em>The 700 Club</em>, the years of treading water while trying to keep so much around her afloat and keep various plates spinning left her drowning in a hopeless sea of clinical depression. Despite her best efforts, she simply couldn't will herself out of it.   <p>Now more than ten years later, Sheila understands what it's like to be wounded. It has been the passion of her heart to study what God's Word has to say about this and then share her liberty with other hurting souls. Divided into three sections (Healing, Spiritual Warfare, and Relationship), this book offers readers practical steps to not only receive the healing that God offers but also to maintain the ground that Christ has restored to them.</p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[&#8220;I know firsthand the desperation a human soul can feel when every earthly remedy fails. I also know how powerfully God can intervene when we fall on our faces before him.&#8221; <br/>&#8212;Sheila Walsh<br/><br/>Talented and beautiful, Sheila Walsh seemed to be on top of the world. But behind her public success as a performing artist and talk show host, a private story was unfolding. Unable to cope with the inner turmoil that plagued her, Sheila stepped down as cohost of television&#8217;s 700 Club to deal with a pain too pressing to ignore. <br/><br/>Honestly takes you on a journey past the walls that most of us put up and into the recesses of one woman&#8217;s heart. With rare grace, Sheila shares the story of her pilgrimage&#8212;the journey of a soul as it moved from hopelessness, to honesty, to freedom, and, ultimately, to a life of deepened faith and joy.]]>

    <![CDATA[<p>Whether or not you know or even understand it, you are living a life of faith. Perhaps not the conventional, Christian ideal of faith, but faith nonetheless. You flip the light switch and have faith that the light will come on. You turn the key and expect the engine to start. But what about the big things in life? Do you have faith that you'll remain healthy? Faith that your children will be safe from violence? We all face situations that we cannot control. All we can do is trust-and have faith-that God will see us through.</p><p>Rather than a complicated, theological enigma, Sheila Walsh explains that faith is a simple, life-giving gift God offers His children. And since it is a gift, He expects us to share it-to give it away. By sharing biblical and modern examples of women of faith, Sheila opens our eyes to the extravagant gift God has for each of us.</p>]]>

Not easy, pat answers, but real-life, lived-out-in-the-flesh answers that can help all Christians find meaning and purpose in the midst of their &quot;Job experience.&quot; In<em> Life Is Tough But God Is  Faithful</em>, Sheila looks at eight crucial turning points that can help you rediscover God's love and forgiveness. She offers encouraging insight into God's presence in the midst of our questions and struggles-and highlights positive choices you can make, no matter what your circumstances.]]>
