She has been speaking and performing comedy across the country and around the world since 2006.

Note from the Writing a devotional book about hope and joy can be tricky because it has the connotation that I am the most hopeful and joyful person on the planet ...that flowers spring up where I step and some type of musical montage starts when I enter the room. This is not the case.
In fact, if you happen to see me in my car in a bit of traffic one day, I hope my face shows the hope and joy in my heart rather than any other emotion or the hormones running through my veins.
I wrote this devotional book because I am on my own joy journey .
I am learning that choosing hope and joy in the middle of chaos and difficult circumstances is not some form of unrealistic optimism -- there is actual power in the act of living hopeful .
There is joy in knowing we are deeply loved by God in the middle of our imperfections. This devotional book contains a splattering of lessons God has taught me through some of my own "Dorie stories" that I pray will be helpful to those wanting more hope and joy in their lives!

Loved reading Dorie's true life (and quite hilarious) adventures. But what I loved more was gleaning from the truths that she reflects upon based off those adventures. Hilarious and thought provoking. Can those two things come together in harmony? Dorie has made it happen in this devotional book. Her stories seem too funny to be true at times but the truths she pulls out of her experiences tell the reader that it has to be true. A great way to stop and get a shot in the arm with some laughter, joy, and hope.

Every time I’ve read these life experiences, I laugh, cry and ponder as Dorie brings humor to these not so every day situations and then applies biblical truth for us to use in our daily walk. These biblical truths she shares hit home in each devotion. This book is well worth reading and rereading for the humor, and the insight she shares with each story.

Dorie's God-given talent is making people laugh! Her ability to share a story and see God in the midst of it is a gift to us. I pray for all of us to have that same experience of seeing God work in and through our lives. Chapter 10 is my favorite! I read it to my children and they can't stop talking about the green toast!

Dorie’s Devotional made me laugh out loud & then sit quiet before God. Her book makes me look forward to waking up each day. I love reading her stories and how scriptures apply to our everyday life. Do yourself a favor & buy this book for you & everyone you know! ~ Michele VanDusen Comedian

This is an amazing devotional by an amazing woman of God! With real life stories and insights from Scripture, you'll be laughing right alongside Dorie and God. The laughs will infuse hope into your soul for whatever you are going through, knowing that our God is a good God.

Loved the book, I read it more as a chapter book. I love the journal entries, and would love to have a companion journal so that I have more room to write!
