A note from Shawna:
A Note From Shawna:
“He who has compassion on them will guide them beside springs of water. I will turn all my mountains into roads…” Isaiah 49:10-11
For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a list of ‘somedays.’ Someday I’ll do this great thing. Then that great thing. I’ll move to Los Angeles. Make great theater and movies. Marry my sweetheart. Choose my own path.
Until a sudden plot twist changed life as I knew it, putting a mountain between me and my growing list of hopes and dreams. The future I once felt so sure of was almost impossible to see. So I did the only thing I could do when everything was out of my control: I prayed. I asked, and God opened a window of opportunity to go after one of my somedays. With my ‘yes’ He leveled that mountain and turned it into a great story of redemption: forgiveness, freedom, healing, and hope. Which I turned into my book ‘Mountains Into Roads.’
I believe with my whole heart that God will reveal Himself to you through the pages of this book in supernatural and miraculous ways, and serve as a guide to your own healing journey. There is freedom, healing, wholeness, and a life fully alive on the road ahead, and it’s only one ‘yes’ away!
With love and deep gratitude, Shawna Kaszer
What readers are saying:
A style reminiscent of Ann Voskamp
Shawna writes her beautiful story of God’s healing touch while on a life-transforming road trip with her husband. Writing in a style reminiscent of Ann Voskamp, we join Shawna and Chad on a trip of a lifetime where every corner reveals the love of Jesus to heal every broken heart, including yours. The author invites you to join the sojourn with her where the mountains of life’s obstacles are changed into roads of healing and fulfillment.
A vulnerable and powerful memoir
The moment I could get my hands on it I read Mountains Into Roads. The journey Shawna Kaszer takes you on is both comforting and compelling. She taps into the human condition without judgement and weaves her relationship with God in seamlessly. A vulnerable and powerful memoir – I highly recommend it for anyone who needs to be reminded to live life fully and wholly.
My favorite of the whole year!
Such a great read. My favorite of the whole year! Shawna is genuine and her writing draws you in like an old, familiar friend. This book reminded me that God is not only loving & sovereign but personal. What a beautiful story. Must read.
This is one of those books
Her storytelling reads like a movie, it’s so colorful and easy to take in. She doesn’t shy away from the ‘real,’ her open, raw relatability speaks easily to men and women alike. Each page is packed with wisdom and adventure! Shawna’s testimony prompted well needed tears, laughter, and above all, a stirring of my own heart. My own ‘yes’ and ‘some days’ that are still there, now woken to the revelation that they ARE important – to me, the world, and God’s heart.
Soaked in truth, hope, healing, and love
I’m not sure I can adequately describe what this book did for my heart and soul. It’s not one filled with catchy phrases or a quick nuggets of wisdom. It’s soaked in truth, hope, healing, and love. It’s one you don’t want to put down but need to every once in a while just to process and ruminate over all you’ve read. This book buoyed me up and carried me right into the arms of the God of hope in a season where I didn’t even know I needed it. I can’t recommend this memoir enough. Order it, read it, sit with it, and let it transform you.
