Just completed “Redefining Red”… it was so so good. This book came a time in my life I that I had been searching to redefine what God’s purpose is for me in this season. This book is literally a blue print to define seasons God might take you through on your way to fulfilling his purpose for your life. Not only is it easy to read, there is useful and practical tips to apply each chapter to your life. The end of each chapter ask questions how can you go deeper and often there is a prayer that is so on point and powerful you find yourself praying every word. I found many nuggets of truth that either reminded me of God’s truth or created an “ah ha” moment that helped me understand they “why” of what I am or have been going through. I would recommend to anyone who feel God is calling them to a purpose-especially if you feel stuck or like all you see are stop signs/red lights. I took so many notes I think I may have wrote almost the whole book in my journal! Grateful for God using this book and showing me how to “Redefine Red” in my life and praying that he will use it in yours too.

As a pastor, sometimes we are inundated with books that our congregation would like for us to read. I have started many only to finish them sometime much later. With Redefining Red, I was captivated from the start by #1, how easy it was to read (being a guy, we like easy reads) and #2, the stories of Pastor Elictia's career as a journalist for the different networks and sporting outlets interwoven with Biblical examples of those who had experienced moments in life that caused them to question their direction or God's direction for their lives. This book speaks to me on a level that I can understand without being tedious. I have had many red light moments in my life where God was trying to get me to move forward but I was programmed to think it just wasn't going to be possible and gave up. For any men reading this review, I suggest that you not only read this awesome book, but buy a few for your buddies. They will find enough sports stories to enjoy and learn great lessons along the way.

I am reviewing a copy of Redefining Red through Emanate Books/Thomas Nelson and Netgalley:
A red Light In T.V Means you’re On! Go!
A red light in your life is a warning! Stop!
What if you turn these red lights moments into encounters with God? What if we allowed it to give us a deeper faith, and gives you the motivation to move forward and not only grow but thrive.
This book will help you to redefine red when you are dreaming or are afraid, when you’re lost, stiluvk or weak. Elicitia used highlights from her career in broadcast journalism along with a unique look at her Bible heroes to show us how we can turn those red light moments into green light moments to go forward and trust God, allowing ourselves to trust God and embrace who we are meant to be.
I give Redefining Red five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!

One of the biggest challenges of the Christian life is staying the course when you are faced with life challenges. The challenges that we face day to day can derail us from our walk with Christ, and Elictia calls these challenges red light moments. In this book she will help you to be aware of red light moments in your life and how God can turn them into green light moments; green light moments are your victories and successes. They are a reminder that God is always working behind the scenes for our good, no matter how tough life gets or when we feel stuck. Elictia is like a friend who comes to your living room and gently shares her real life experiences and by showing you how they mirror the word of God. I recommend this book to anyone and everybody who need to redefine their life’s purpose.

Thank you, Pastor Elictia Hart, for writing this incredible book for all the world to read. It is so well written; you have inspired me to turn my past struggles into future triumphs - one step at a time. Anyone who wants to know who you are, what makes you tick, and discover what you are good at, this book is for YOU! It is NEVER TOO LATE to start over right where you are! I am going to let the Holy Spirit redefine my red lights and when He turns them to GREEN, to bravely and boldly step out in FAITH and walk out my life with grace, peace, and mercy! A "master" piece that I will recommend highly to make the name of Jesus famous!
