Rating: Summary: Worth Sipping Review: I knew the moment I began reading the introduction that this was the kind of book I could gulp down in just one sitting. Nicole Johnson is friendly, clear, humorous...the kind of woman other women want to have as their best friend. Holidays and busy-ness forced me to read each chapter bit by bit, which became a special treat I savored. Peppered throughout the book are recipes, movie recommmendations, and journaling ideas. All advice was based on life experience, and came through as authentic and worthwhile. I only wish I wasn't finished!
Rating: Summary: Refreshing Review: I purchased this book at a Women of Faith conference after hearing Nicole speak, I even got her autograph on the book. And the book was not disappointing, it is an upbeat, fun book on refreshing our daily life. How many times in our life do we feel uplifted? Nicole's book clearly illustrates how we need to pick ourselves up and smile more, enjoy our friends more, enjoy being a Christian more. Life should not always seem burdened, Jesus took those burdens for us to the cross. Our weight should be light, so start living a "Fresh-Brewed Life"!
Rating: Summary: Fresh Brewed Review: I read this book at the same time as other women I know, and then we would gather and discuss the chapters. My recomendation is to read with an open mind and heart. A lot of what Nicole talks about are things that I never looked deeply at before. I feel that a couple of the chapters were slow going but the rest of them made up for it! Overall I enjoyed the book and would reccomend it
Rating: Summary: A MUST READ & TERRIFIC GIFT IDEA! Review: I was impressed by Nicole Johnson's terrific sense of humor at the Women of Faith Conference last year and wanted to get a better idea of her perspective of life, so I bought this book and a journal. The only thing that disappointed me about the book was that I let in sit on the shelf too long before I made the time to read it! After that, I read it from cover to cover. I am now buying several more to give to friends as gifts with a big coffee mug and a bag of Starbucks coffee beans -- enjoy a fresh brewed life and read this one!
Rating: Summary: This book is motivating! Review: Nicole Johnson can bring out the life in anyone. This book was so inspirational and motivational, I couldn't put it down. It focuses alot on journaling and the benefits of journaling. I've seen Nicole perform her live skits in person and she is truly an amazing and talented woman with a gift for writing. Her website is also amazing!
Rating: Summary: A fresh and stimulating book, good for coffee, life, spirit. Review: Nicole Johnson did a wonderful job of putting zest back in everyday life, from fresh-brewed coffee to living a spiritual life to enriching relationships, particularly from a woman's point of view. I enjoyed the book so much, I sent my sister my copy and am looking for another for my daughter and myself. Highly recommended!!
Rating: Summary: A reality check for the soul!!!! Review: Nicole's book is so inspiring. It is a definate must read for everyone. She writes from her soul and pours out words of kindness and thoughfulness. This is a wonderful book for all of us who are trying to search for the answers of our lives. Nicole does not offer solutions but she opens the doorways and choices!!! Again, a DEFINATE MUST READ!!!!!
Rating: Summary: such a blessing Review: Reading this book was such a turning point in my life. I have been a devoted follower of Christ for many years, and have read many books by Christian authors, but Nicole puts living the life of a believer in a whole new light. The way that she sees things and communicates them to her readers is so fresh, and uplifting. This book was a great blessing. It has helped me to walk in beauty, inside and out. It helped me past a lot of hang-ups that I didn't even know I had.
Rating: Summary: I have been stirred! Review: Sometimes God brings things into our life that at first we don't think about too much or perhaps even give much thought to at all really. Sometimes the very thing that happens is not why we began a journey at all, but He intended for us to see the bigger picture He sees and surprises us by putting a seemingly 'small' moment into our path to lead us to the greater moment of Him. I met Nicole Johnson a few years ago and only bought her book to be able to stand in line to speak with her, little did I know that that would be the 'small' moment that led to the HUGE moment of pure growth in my life and sweet realization that I was made for more. My friend, if you are thinking about or looking for something different to read, something to help you find answers, you can start here with this amazing book and I can promise with complete confidence that you will not be disappointed even for a second. So go ahead and order the 'cup' that will change your life as you turn the pages! Praise Him so, for He is amazing. And thanks Nicole, I am forever changed b/c you were willing to lay it on the line and trust Him as He told you what to write.
Rating: Summary: Highly recommenced! Review: This book has permanently changed my life - forever. I am indebted to Nicole for daring to courageously write about these topics in such an honest insight way with an amazing depth, wisdom and contemporary savvy.
