“Look for ways to be an inspiration to others. Become the best version of yourself so that you can help other people be the best version of themselves. If you talk about how you volunteer at soup kitchens or how you attend a Bible study and set prayer times each morning, your passion and faith will fan the flame to those who hear it.”

With a name like Sunshine, how could one ever be crabby? Sunshine Rodgers had to come to terms with the fact that she did not always have to live up to her name. But she also realized that her name could inspire her to make a difference in the lives of others. She wants to use her platform to be a blessing.

I appreciated the abundance of verses that are included in this book. It is clear that the author looks to the Bible for wisdom. She wants to point people to Jesus.

This book is full of encouraging thoughts. Sunshine wants to use her experiences to motivate others to also make a difference. Her positivity flows off the pages. Occasionally she came off a bit like a hyper cheerleader, but there is not doubt that is an optimistic person.

Sunshine decided to use her book as a way to highlight life experiences of her friends as well. She interviews several people and asks for their perspectives on her chapter themes. While I appreciate the fact that she wanted to honor others that she admires, their input was not quite as meaningful for me since I do not know them personally.

Overall, the book is encouraging and full of positive content. If you are looking for inspiration, this book could provide it. I was given an advanced copy of this book for a tour. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.
