“Combining her expertise in journaling, her day-to-day challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the isolation that accompanied it with the strength and supplications provided in Bible verses and prayer, Gwendolyn Carole Tipton has given us a guidebook for therapeutic journaling that is useful in facing many of the issues we encounter in life. Journaling helps us get through today, the days ahead, and to remember the past.”
