In her 2017 memoir, author Adele Gill wrote of her personal journey from “Broken to Blest”,
From Broken to Blest: Embracing the Healing that Awaits You
In 2020, she sensed that many lives were being challenged and broken and that we needed help, a “how to” book. In these times is it possible to go from broken to blest? Yes! Written in a simple, yet powerful way, the calm conviction of this book will soothe you and encourage you.
Are you struggling? We all have, or we are, or we will be struggling in the future. We are human- it’s part of our condition. And the list of concerns is long: the pandemic, dealing with health issues, mental health concerns, social issues, personal relationship and job problems! What can we do?
The author presents six easy steps. These are the steps that she herself followed. I highlighted most of the words and Bible verses in this book as I read it. Here are a few thoughts that resonated with me.
God is in control.
Jesus knows us better than we know ourselves. He loves you unconditionally.
Put aside worry and fear. Pray!
Choose to have hope and a positive attitude. Eliminate the “What if’s”.
Take the high road
Let God do His finest work in your life.
This book also contains a 6 Week Small Group Discussion Guide which is brilliant-thorough and well-organized.
This short book will not take you long to read. You will want to read it over and over. You may also want to give this book as a gift to friends and family. You can be strengthened TODAY. I highly recommend this warm and welcoming book.

How to Go from Broken to Blest by Adele M. Gill is an easy-to-read 6-Step practical guide based on Biblical principles and sound wisdom as a lifelong Christian mentor. This study guide addresses many life issues that we all deal with from time to time.
The author has also expanded her book to include the fear and anxiety caused by the Covid-19 Pandemic. With that said, this is a phenomenal book giving readers understanding of how to move forward in faith, leaning on Jesus as their anchor of hope in life, and to go from broken to blest.
Jesus says he desires us to have an abundant life – but some wonder “how” to get there. This book speaks to such issues as learning to be worry and fear free, to avoid toxic people, forgiveness, accepting of the past, and learning to let go to find freedom mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. In doing so, the author highlights salvation as a key ingredient to finding peace, enjoyment, and the abundant life Jesus died to give all.
The 6 Steps Include: Acknowledge You’re Struggling, Put Aside All Worry and Fear, Recognize Your Greatest Source, Forgive and Take the High Road, Learn to Accept Imperfections, Embrace Your Healings, with a Six Week Small Group Discussion Guide & Book Reviews give readers or a small group the blueprint to healing.
This book comes highly recommended for individuals, small group sessions at home, or within church settings. Additionally, pastors, counselors, marriage and family counselors might want to keep copies to give to their parishioners or clients.
As a Christian, this short book gave me the tools and the “how to” go about living the blest life centered on Jesus, trusting in my “Greatest Resource.” Yet, this study guide is NOT for just Christians. I would also whole heartedly recommend this book for those that are struggling with life in general and to those who need encouragement during these turbulent times. Even those who are struggling with drugs and/or alcohol would benefit from this book.
This book is true to its title. You will not be disappointed!
