ENDORSEMENTS:

My father sent me this book and I couldn't relate more to Mrs. Starr's testimony. I can't put this book down!!! It has so much truth and perfect quotes... Every single person, male or female, needs this book for encouragement during difficult times. This is such a great resource. Can't thank you enough!! (New Jersey lady)

I’m so glad God created you two!! I wanted to tell you, Shirley, that your books are helping save lives in our local County jail. There is a young woman there who has accepted the Lord as her Saviour; she usually smiles and loves to sing, but she is going through such a depression that she’s on restriction (like a suicidal watch). I’ve no clue what she did, but she was so glad to get Clouds of Adversity, Valleys of Despair; she’d expressed an interest in Esther, so I gave her my copy of your book, Women of the Bible, v. 5 - Powerful and Prestigious. Please pray for her; So broken, so much pain and sorrow. (Oklahoma Customer)

Thanks for coming and ministering to us. We enjoyed you both. I loved the Clouds book, so I bought one for a friend. Now I realize I should have gotten two more for other friends. (Arizona Customer)

Your book on Clouds came at just the right time. Our family has been going through a trial. I've started reading it through for the second time. Thank you. (Missionary's wife, OH)

Dear Mrs. Starr, I am writing this with a heart of gratitude for your book, Clouds of Adversity, Valleys of Despair. You spoke about encouragement in one chapter and mentioned that sometimes the encouragement comes from people who are unaware of the problem. Even though you do not know the details and situation, you have been an encouragement to me through the book... It was a help as I was almost to the point of giving up...There are still difficult roads ahead (on my field as I return), but I am trusting completely in the Lord. Thank you once again for being a blessing! (Missionary, Mexico)

Shirley, God has been so good [in our church planting ministry] to send encouragement just when we need it most. I am reading your new book, Clouds of Adversity, now--very timely! I have been going through the same kind of depression you experienced. ...the Lord has been teaching me much these past few months. I am so grateful for those He has placed in my path to help me through this... Thank you again for your support and prayers. (Pastor's wife)

I have read the books, The Prayers of Christ and Clouds of Adversity, Valleys of Despair. Thank you for letting God use you--and for the wonderful fellowship last Sunday. (Maine)
