A wonderful book. Full of important details
A book full of spiritual ingredients and food for producing fruit in our lives. A book that challenges to examine yourself or to bring light to areas we struggle in. There is hope in Jesus Christ. We should thank the writer for this insight.

A wake up call for those who are stuck
Easy read. Simple direct message. Addresses many of the issues that hinder Christians from living the abundant life Jesus came to give us. Living abundantly means being free to contribute to building God's Kingdom. Living less than abundantly makes a Christian less effective, even to being totally useless and in bondage.

Very helpful, well written, easy to understand
Easy to read, very straight forward. Full of relevant scripture that is very helpful. Not just a one time read, also a great book to have as a reference during pitfalls in our journey.

Decent devotional
The writing style was pretty decent, but there is a lot of repetition I see in other Bible devotional books. I did enjoy how there as was plenty of scripture peppered with the author’s own words. It was a nice way to connect to the Holy Spirit in the morning.

Amazing and inspiring read.
Great advice. I love this. They give you scripts from the Bible along with message. The messages help to understand the verse in the Bible.

"Getting Unstuck" by Lilliet Garrison is a decent self-help book with helpful tips and strategies for overcoming personal obstacles. While some of the advice presented in the book is useful, I was caught off-guard by the overuse of scripture and lack of a solid strategy to move beyond what's holding you back. There are moments when the book lacks depth, but it is alright for those seeking basic guidance on getting unstuck. However, it may not offer enough new insights for those well-versed in self-help literature and may leave some readers wishing for more concrete tools to break free from their personal challenges.

I enjoyed having so much scripture to accompany the points she made in this devotional-type book. For me, I prefer personal anecdotes about different struggles interspersed with all the advice. It could have been much better if the author had done that, but perhaps that isn't her style. It's definitely a short little book with only a few chapters.

Ok I guess.
Doesn't help get you unstuck the only thing if anything at all this book tells you to put your faith in god. The whole book is nothing but bible quotes. If I wanted to read the bible I would read the bible. Seriously get a bible it's exactly the same as reading this book only better.

Was a great read. Read it in two day
I would recommend this book to anyone who is struggling with getting on the right track, as far as having God as your leader. No pressure, just helped in the direction I want to go.

Superb
God has done his best to give you a path to him.
Satan does his best to take our race off course.

Thank God for understanding and Peace. I needed to hear these things and was able to identify with behaviors not pleading in God's sight. Thank You
