Open Doors Open Hearts: Change Lives With Generosity, Love, and Compassion

by Tina Pocernich

BOOK DESCRIPTION
Have you ever been caught between a rock and a hard place, just needing a helping hand from someone to get you through? Have you needed a place to stay, even if only for a short period of time? Have you experienced financial difficulty and wished for a few months with no rent payments due, so you could get back on your feet again?

5115A-4Ui1LIn everyone’s life they experience times of need. At times throughout the life of author, Tina Pocernich, she has needed to rely on friends primarily within her church family to help her through events like her mother’s battle with cancer, and her escape from an unhealthy relationship. This led her to wonder “how do people pay it forward to those who are at their lowest, or even those who need just a little help?” Inspired by the instances she’d experienced, as well as the many examples she’d read throughout her Bible, she chose to reach out and touch the lives of those around her.

This is Tina’s story, and the story of those who have chosen to open their hearts and their homes. Join her in her journey from need to blessing others. Maybe you, too will be inspired to open your heart and home.

I enjoyed reading this book as it helped me open my heart and doors even more. Sometimes we may think that we’re doing enough but we can always do this little extra. Just recently we’ve opened our doors to travelers and the joy of sharing is very much mutual. I encourage anyone to read Tina’s book and find ways to share in life and be blessed by it.
AUTHOR BIO
I am Tina Pocernich, and I live in Wisconsin. I’ve been married nearly 25 years and am the mother and stepmother to five adult children: three boys and two girls, and eight grandchildren. I work full-time for a technical college, and recently, I’ve become an author. My passions are transparency, integrity, and truth.

In January 2017, I participated in a small group of women studying the book Dream It, Pin It, Live It by Terri Savelle Foy. For the first time in my life, I focused on looking at, and establishing personal goals and a vision board for a 12-18 month period. One of those goals was to write a book. When my goals were in front of me, I believe I was more aware of opportunities before me. In January, I also noticed an ad on my Facebook feed regarding Chandler Bolt’s Self-Publishing School. I downloaded and read two of his books, Published and Book Launch. Then I joined Chandler’s online Self-Publishing School Mastermind Community to gain even more knowledge and support throughout the book writing process. I have no idea how many times I may have seen that information in my feed previously, but I know I wouldn’t have noticed it if I hadn’t set a goal to write a book.

In July of 2017, I completed my book, Open Doors Open Hearts. God has allowed me to experience various things in life, and I believe it gives me purpose to share my possessions and experiences with others.

As a logical and direct person, I present my thoughts in a very practical way, without a lot of flowery language. My style is simple, but straight from the heart.

My hope is that you’ll enjoy my writing and find nuggets of truth you can implement in your own life.

BOOK REVIEW NEW RELEASE

Child Under Fire: Finding God’s Victory for a Child in Distress

CHILD UNDER FIRE as written by Kate Chattic.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Is your child out of control? Do you fear him?

You are not alone. I want you to avoid the mistakes I made and find God’s peace much sooner than I did. I want to give you hope and encouragement to keep going!

Do you want to keep the problem hidden?

CHILD UNDER FIRE .If we could just learn to trust each other and share our struggles, they may grow lighter. Too often, when we share what has happened (or is happening!), we are simply met with condemnation and harsh criticism. I decided to face that fear of trusting enough to share my story because I thought it might help someone else. This is not as easy as it sounds, but I have opened my heart to you in telling my story.

This book is the story of my pain, immaturity, emotions, joys, victories, and most of all, my learning experience as I let God mature me and change my heart through a spiritual battle.

You may find the answers for your distressed child, BUT more importantly, this is not a “parenting guidebook” or a self-help book. This is my story, both the ugly and the pretty parts, meant to be an encouragement to keep going. Don’t give up and don’t withdraw from your situation.

MY REVIEW

Intense and painful story. Heartbreaking really. But she persevered and it worked out in the end. With God, there is always mercy and hope. Beautiful message. I sympathise Kate! Well done for not giving up and trusting in The Lord.

Trust in the Lord and know that the experiences in our life will help us become better people if we allow HIS mercy and love to shine through.
Thank you for sharing Kate.

AUTHOR BIO

Kate Chattic is a mother of six children. Writing has been an enjoyable hobby for many years, but writing her story was not about enjoyment. It was about reaching out a hand of encouragement and love to other parents in need, especially so that they could avoid some of the mistakes that she made.

She knows the pain of a troubled child and a broken marriage. She also knows the rewards of seeking God and persevering through the toughest situations. Currently, as a happily married, home schooling mom, she finds life even more fun when she is learning new skills and researching the internet!
From DIY projects to organizing, gardening to raising meat chickens, nothing is off-limits!

A native of Minnesota, Kate was transplanted to central Illinois in her late teens. She misses the lakes and people of Minnesota, but her family in Illinois is enough to keep her roots there. She writes from a Christian perspective and has plans for more books in the future!
