The Secret Place.
(Psalm 91:1 – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty).
The Secret Place is where intimacy with God deepens, His presence becomes your refuge, and His secrets are revealed to those who draw near. This is the place where Secret Place SECRETS: A 31-Day Devotional Experience was born.
Beyond the 31 devotionals, the author shares intimate glimpses of her 2016 breast cancer journey in the Introduction, Personal Acknowledgements, and personal story, “A Covering on Every Side.” She reveals how The Secret Place sustained her through one of life’s most difficult seasons.
Written for men and women alike, this devotional invites you into a deeper, more personal relationship with God.
These “secrets” aren’t hidden from us, but for us. God wants you to know them, but some things are only discovered when you get close. Come closer.

- Go to Ant School
- God Will Never Divorce You
- If God Can Use a Rooster, He Can Use You!
- This Is Not A TKO!
