Ilustration To Books Never the Bride
Eleven Bridesmaid Dresses Don’t Lie Since she was just a little girl, Jessie Stone dreamed up hundreds of marriage proposals, doodled the romantic ideas in her journal with her treasured purple pen, and fantasized about wedding dresses and falling in love. She’s been a bridesmaid nearly a dozen times, waved numerous couples off to sunny honeymoons, and shopped in more department stores for half-price fondue pots than she cares to remember. But shopping for one key component of these countless proposals hasn't been quite as productive–a future husband. The man she thought she would marry cheated on her. The crush she has on her best friend Blake is at very best…well, crushing. And speed dating has only churned out memorable horror stories. So when God shows up one day, in the flesh, and becomes a walking, talking part of her life, Jessie is skeptical. What will it take to convince her that the Almighty has a better plan than one she’s already cooked up in her journals? Can she turn over her pen and trust someone else to craft a love story beyond her wildest dreams?Identify Books Supposing Never the Bride

MY FAVORITE BOOK EVER! Reminds me that God can write my love story better than I can! God is in control of the purple pen!This book was amazing. I would love to have this book on my shelf at home. The book talks about how this girl stopped believing in God and she is on the hunt for a husband. She has never been married, but has always been the bridesmaid and she is lonely. She is trying everything possible to be a wife and to find a husband. It goes through how God wants our everything. God knows what he has planned for us and he will bring a guy into our life when it is meant to be. We can't rush God's plan!
Never the bride was a Christmas gift to me from my eldest sister. I come from a huge family and nearly all of my sisters are married, except me. I started reading this book today, while dealing with some drama with a boy friend. Half way through today, he broke up with me, half way through this book I realized what God wants from me. Never have I read a book that struck home. I was in tears for most of the book, because I relate so much to Jessie. This line from the book struck home for me. "
I have to be honest here. A chapter or so into the book, I was rather disappointed. It was like a shallow chick-lit; all about trying to find a guy. Nothing wrong with chick-lit when I'm in the mood for it, but I was expecting something a little more substantial.Well, that all changed when God suddenly showed up in the storyline. Literally. And He wasn't who I expected. And that made me think. (Not necessarily agree, but think.) And suddenly all the witty romantic dialogue wasn't so shallow any
Amusing and sometimes laugh out loud funny, Never the Bride is more than just a comedy. What really got me about this book was the way the authors depicted God--as a suitor. Handsome, kind, often mysterious, always polite, and filled with love. Even now, a week after I finished it, I think about that. I highly recommend this book.
AmazingAmazing book, loved every minute of it. Reminds you of how God wants to be there even in what we may think are the big small life moments.
This book is absolutely hysterical and relatable! God comes to Earth to guide Jessie Stone into a real love, bust she struggles to let him take the pen to write her love story!
