    Thanks for this video, Haley! I’d be really interested in a Christian testimony vlog discussing how you initially came to Christ, any doubts you may have developed, and how your faith has evolved over the years if you feel comfortable sharing. :)

    “Hearing God” looks like a great book! Being conversational with God is so important. I’ve just recently gotten used to being in constant, comfortable, intimate conversation with the Lord - and it’s amazing! It’s vitally important to being close with God. I’m sure “Hearing God” is a great read for anyone who hasn’t gotten into this.

    I also grew up in a church where people didn’t “hear from God” and all that jazz. But let me tell you! When you build a relationship with Him and hear and know His voice, it is a complete game changer! I’m so excited you’re getting into that and would love to hear updates on how it’s all going for you!

    Absolutely love this list!!! Love C.S. Lewis, a lot of those are on my TBR list too! Just added some new ones from your video to my list. To make a recommendation of my own, I highly recommend the book "The Reason" by Lacey Sturm, who's a Christian rock singer. She talks about her rough past and her journey going from being an atheist and also going though deep depression and almost committing suicide to finding God. I really recommend anything from her. She also wrote "The Mystery" about finding true love in this broken world, and "The Return" about how to love God back with your life. All amazing books that have changed my perspective on life.

    Haley please put ‘No Compromise: the life story of Keith Green’ by Melody Green on your tbr pile. It’s a game changer. So good.

    Love Bob Goff- listening to those books on Audio is awesome as he is the reader. He is so funny. Redeeming Love…also fantastic (movie slightly difficult to watch) I’ve been a Christian a long time and yet I’ve never read Lewis…this is my reminder to do it now
