About the author

Pat Farrell is now living her dream as she helps every person she meets to find their dream and reach their peak. If you had asked her five years ago, she didnt even have a dream or know what it would be if she did. During the twenty years that Pat owned an advertising company, she was too busy to dream. In 1994, she became an advocate of personal growth when she was challenged by her own limiting beliefs. She was convinced that things could be different and began the journey to find out how.

Her study of how people change, grow and find their own strength has become her passion. Pat sold her advertising business in 1997 to develop a career as a speaker and a corporate trainer. She facilitates workshops that provide businesses with a greater ability to access the full potential of the human spirit. She shares her gratitude, enthusiasm, and love of learning as she teaches the power of acknowledgment and forgiveness in everyday encounters.

Pat is an effective and empowering speaker who motivates people to see only the best in themselves and the world around them. Her energy, enthusiasm and effervescence inspire her audiences to go beyond success . . . to the experience of joyous living with infinite possibilities.

Pat is an experienced and popular guest on radio talk shows. Her bitesize snippets of wisdom are easily digested by the listening audience and have and immediate positive impact. She is a licensed master hypnotherapist with advanced studies in psychology and maintains a private practice in San Diego. She resides in Southern California with her two children.

[R.W. Patterson · Rating 4 out of 5]

I appreciated the honest, heartfelt story relaying the author's trials and tribulations and subsequent path to God. I especially love that Faith House exists as a beacon of light to those seeking support, acceptance, love, and healing through faith.

I had the pleasure of meeting Pat Farrell at the Academy of Spiritual Formation, and the privilege of hearing her speak one evening. Her testimony was filled with humor, and her passion for Christ was clear. I looked forward to reading her book and was not disappointed. She tells her story simply and directly, and shares the Bible verses that have spoken to her. Highly recommended.

I read the wrong book. I was planning on reading short story also called "Faith House", but ended up reading this one instead. When I clicked on Amazon from the other book's page, it took me to this one. I didn't realize until the 21st chapter (i know) that I was reading the wrong book. I was very confused when I found that this was a nonfiction book and didn't mention anything about Christmas. But, anyway, I enjoyed the author's story, even though it didn't exactly relate to me. It was inspiring, and I'm sure it inspired many women. This author clearly has a beautiful heart and a heart after God. Even though I would have preferred the other book, I'm glad I read this one.

I had a hard time focusing on this book. It is a collection of memories of the author's life. She talks about her childhood and why she ended up the way she did, and talks about how God healed her. There were a lot of good stories, but it felt disconnected to me.
