About the Author

Christa Joy Spaeth is the founder of Christa Joy Ministries. It was in 2022 when Minnesota-based author Christa received a compelling message from God. In a prayer cabin called “Whisper,” He prompted her to write a seven-week devotional.

Since then, Christa’s eyes, heart, and ears were opened to more whispers, so that she may start fulfilling her new purpose of helping the hurting and share the love of Christ.


This blessed wife, mother of two, and businesswoman is passionate about living up to God’s plans for her every day. So much so that in 2022, she stepped down from her decades-long career as a Registered Dietitian at a large food manufacturing company to pursue the promptings of the Lord and encourage others in Christ.

Today, Christa owns and operates Christa Joy Ministries where she publishes her own books, writes daily encouragements and God whispers on her social media accounts. In addition, she does guest blog posts for various social media accounts.

 

More from Christa

One morning while I was away at a prayer cabin, the Lord laid on my heart that I was to write a book. My first thought was, “Oh, my!  Lord, I have never written anything other than work-related documents.  Where do I begin? What do you want me to write?”

I am so honored and humbled that the Lord placed amazing book experts in my path over the next year to launch this unique devotional book in a mere 55 weeks. This feat is spectacular as I didn’t know anything about the publishing business.

Two components of Powerful Whispers that my readers love are the suggested worship and the activations. After each devotional was written I searched for the perfect worship song. You will find several suggested indie artist songs and a few popular worship songs too.  Daily you will find an activation which engages your entire body to be able to get the daily truth deeper in your soul.

The Bible verse I read before I starting to write Powerful Whispers is found in James 1:5, “If you need wisdom, ask our generous God and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.” God continually showed His faithfulness to me by providing wisdom to share with my readers.

My heart’s desire is that readers will soon learn through this daily devotional that God chose them, He loves them, and He wants to share His powerful whispers daily for their life.

MY REVIEW 

I like how the author has set this study book up in a way  that flows from page to page. She opens the study with the most important part that will impact many. It is a simple statement which asks, “Do you know Jesus ?” Before you begin the study the author wants readers to know where they would go if they died today. I loved that this was the first page that starts your journey with Jesus.

Each chapter has a section where you read scriptures and reflect  on them. One thing I noticed about the study is how it is geared towards drawing you to open up the Bible and reading directly from it. Even though the scriptures are there in the workbook I like to look them up in the Bible. There  are many versions out there to choose from and for me I like to read from different Bibles to see how they are written and interpreted. 

The book provides personal accounts with a song that I stopped to look up. It also prompts you to take action and then pray over what you studied. I like that the author provided a prayer that goes with each section and points directly to what was just studied. The chapters are short but it does not take away from the message. It provides  a good way to spend time with God while soaking up His word.

One chapter I really enjoyed was “ God Sees You,”   found in chapter seven. It talks  about feeling invisible. I have felt  that way all my life. I often say,” If I walked into a room full of people, I would still feel alone.” This chapter reminds me that God sees me and He has never left me. I may feel alone but that is a lie from the enemy. This one chapter grabbed my attention and I probably spent days reading it, looking up verses, the song and saying the prayer over and over again. Yes I felt a release when I let go and let God. I have wanted to be free from all the lies the enemy has whispered to me since I was a child. I needed a breakthrough in my anxiety and depression. What I found was missing was I was not still. I kept running from Him and allowing others to make me feel unwanted and unloved. I now hold on to Jeremiah 31:3 “ The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying: I have loved you with everlasting  love ; I have drawn you with unfailing love.” 

As you can tell this book has impacted me in a way that I have waited my whole life to feel. You never know when your breakthrough will come but get ready . God loves us and has a plan for us. We may get what we need from a study guide, a word from the pastor or just listening to a song. Be sure you grab this book  and allow God to open your eyes and whisper truth and freedom to each of you. 

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.
