With all that women do these days, <i>Walk Softly</i> is a 'must-have'--the practical thoughts and prayers guide readers to a deeper relationship with God. Whether you read it in the car-pool line, while waiting in the doctor's office, during Adoration, or at the end of the day before getting ready for bed, Teresa's words will speak to your heart and the prayers will move you." --<b>Julie Alexander</b>, cofounder, the Alexander House, and coauthor, <i>Marriage 911</i> <p/> "<i>Walk Softly and Carry a Great Bag</i> is just what the doctor ordered--it's precisely what every Christian woman today needs in her bag or on her night table.

I absolutely love this book!" --<b>Donna-Marie Cooper O'Boyle</b>, EWTN TV host, award-winning author, <i>The Miraculous Medal</i> <p/> "Who says you can't have style with your time with God? Teresa Tomeo finds a way to make on-the-go devotions more than just a passing fad, and she does it with style and verve. This is a book you can tuck in your bag, share with your best friend, and use to grow closer to God." --<b>Sarah Reinhard</b>, author and blogger <p/> "<i>Walk Softly and Carry a Great Bag</i> reminds me daily to ask for help, take care of myself, and appreciate all God has given me." --<b>Cary Alfonso</b> <p/> "<i>Walk Softly and Carry a Great Bag</i> is classic Teresa Tomeo: In her customary Italian style, she tells it like it is, reminding us that God loves a modern woman, and that a modern woman needs to spend time with God, no matter how chaotic her life might feel. In this book you'll find practical spiritual advice that a busy woman can consume in just a few minutes but process for the rest of the day. It's a perfect book to keep next to the makeup mirror to read while getting ready...or in your purse for whenever you find a few precious moments for reflection on the go!" --<b>Anna Mitchell</b>, news director and producer, EWTN Radio Son Rise Morning Show <p/> "This delightful little book combines the wisdom of the saints with the sassy wit of a close girlfriend.

In <i>Walk Softly and Carry a Great Bag</i>, Teresa Tomeo makes it practical for anyone to obtain a quick biblical boost whenever necessary! Each verse is personalized with an uplifting reflection--it's perfect for those who 'don't have time' to read the Bible. Highly recommended!" --<b>Gary Zimak</b>, Catholic speaker and author, <i>Faith, Hope, and Clarity</i> <p/> "Like the Martha Stewart of Catholic womanhood, Teresa Tomeo knows how to pull it all together. Faithful, funny, and a little feisty, Teresa's reflections are a treat for any woman who wants a bite-sized daily morsel to spice up her spiritual routine." --<b>Gina Loehr</b>, author, <i>St. Francis, Pope Francis</i> <p/> "An old adage in the spiritual life says that if the devil can't make you bad, he'll make you busy.
