Make Their Day: 101 Simple, Powerful Ways to Love Others Well by Karen Ehman Book Review

In Make Their Day, Karen Ehman has written a helpful book to assist readers in brainstorming up creative ideas to reach out and do something kind for someone else. In the book, she looked at how we can bless our friends, family, community, other counties or across the screen, people who are hurting, household of faith, holidays, and opening your own home. The book enclosed 101 examples and stories about how we can show the love of Christ to others and make a difference in their lives. Some of her ideas included a surprise coffee delivery, helping someone else with a chore that they are trying to finish, give God’s Word and encouragement, a book basket, honoring people who serve, prayers in a basket, co-workers snack section, couple ten-dollar date night, taking notes in your phone of special dates to bless our friends and family, giving away soup, top secret twelve days of Christmas, and much more. 

 

 

I would recommend this awesome book to anyone who is ready to get creative and become a blessing to others. I immensely loved how detailed she was in sharing how she has been able to surprisingly blessing others around her. One of my favorites was the topic of the twelve days of Christmas and how she and a few others was able to help a single divorced dad who was struggling with raising five children and he wanted to give them a normal Christmas. She came up with an idea to do a basket and they all filled with goodies each day and they were instructed to just place the basket outside. I loved this idea and how easy and helpful it could be to a person that might need cheered up. Another favorite suggestion, she gave was in paying attention to small details and take notes in our phones or important dates that matter to other people and to be a blessing to others such as a death of a love one. Maybe do something positive that day for them to show them that you care. Also, another thing we could do is remembering their favorite coffee or snack of choice. The main thing is just being creative and be open to always look for ways to be a blessing to someone else. I also liked how she enclosed a printable section that had recipes, scripture verses on tags, and fill in event suggestions.
