"Time to Reset" book sitting between two candles

Have you ever felt like you were lost in life or that you needed to somehow “reset?” Time to Reset, a 21-day devotional, can help you find your way back to God and give you the reboot you need to get back on track. Just like your cell phone needs time to shut down and reset so it will work more efficiently, it’s good to give our soul that reboot too.

Strengths

There are many strengths in this devotional, which I have highlighted below.

  • You can enjoy light reading packed with the gospel. I don’t know about you, but as a mom and a professional, my time to read is very limited. Books like Time to Reset offer short passages of reading that can be quite impactful and don’t require hours of reading either. 
  • Personal narratives are included at the beginning of each chapter. Karen Brown Tyson has a way with words that can really help you find meaning in your own life or situation.
  • Prompts are given to help you reflect upon and digest the material. 
  • Within a month, this 21-day devotional can help you turn your life around, gain insight on what God is speaking into your life, and encourage you to let go and give the reins to God.

My Final Thoughts

I love a good self-help book and after reading Karen Brown Tyson’s Time to Refresh in 2018, I couldn’t wait to dive into her next book Time to Renew. Karen has a way of intertwining her experiences with the gospel in a fluid way that’s easy to follow. She is truly gifted in writing. This book can be very impactful if you take your time to process the reading and complete the suggested Bible readings at the end of each chapter.
