The Yada Yada Prayer Group

A Found Family Story Centering on the Lives of Five Women

De: Neta Jackson

Narrado por: Julie Rogers

From award-winning author Neta Jackson comes a heartfelt and deeply relatable story about the unexpected ways God brings people together--and how faith can transform even the most unlikely friendships. In The Yada Yada Prayer Group, Jackson delivers a powerful, character-driven novel that celebrates community, grace, and the beauty of doing life together.

Jodi Baxter would be the first to admit she's not exactly the "join a group of strangers" type. So when she reluctantly attends the Chicago Women's Conference, the last thing she expects is to walk away with a circle of women who couldn't be more different from her--or more essential to her life. An ex-con, a recovering addict, a high-powered real estate broker, a college student, and a busy mom don't seem to have much in common. But when they're thrown together and decide to start a prayer group, something extraordinary begins to take shape.

As the women meet week after week, their differences give way to deep bonds of honesty, vulnerability, and faith. And when Jodi faces the greatest crisis of her life, it's this unlikely sisterhood that shows her what it truly means to lean on God--and on each other.

The Yada Yada Prayer Group is a moving reminder that friendship doesn't require perfection--just a willingness to show up. The Yada Yada Prayer Group is the first book in the Yada Yada series known for its humorous and honest portrayal of modern-day Christians navigating difficult situations.

The interaction of love between diverse backgroundsv& cultures.

I enjoyed it from cover to cover & am presently reading book 2 of this series.

A story to awaken the heart, mind, and spirit.

I met the Yada Yada Prayer Group after years of heartbreak and a broken spirit that had left me feeling a sense of disconnect from God. The ladies from the prayer group, fictional though they be, began to reach the chilled aspects of my heart. I now begin to feel the decade of pain to lessen, and the old urge to pray, simply because God is so incredible, unconsciously seeps back into my spirit. The love and prayers of the ladies in Yada Yada compels a continuation of healing in mind and spirit that is sweet and gentle, and most definitely what I needed. I look forward to what God will show me as I continue on in the series. Julie Rogers does a wonderful job helping me to see the diversity of the ladies, unobtrusively sharing the heart of the author, Neta Jackson. I suspect that you will discover, as I did, that this eclectic group of ladies will go from mere characters in a story to believable ladies who touch your heart, urging you on to love God, yourself, and others.

POWERFUL

Absolutely LOVED IT!!! This book is an easy read that paints a captivating picture in ones mind. I actually believed that I was a character in the Yada Yada prayer group...love it, love it, love it!

Diversity of Christian Love

I love the rawness behind the story. it's told with compassion for the journey of the lives before, crossroads and successful walk of the Christian.

I cried

I am not a crier. I don’t cry at sad or sappy movies. I rarely cry about anything in real life. But this book made me cry. I nearly had to pull over while listening because I felt what the main character felt so sharply. At other points I also laughed! All in all, this is a great book and I’m really glad I picked it up! I loved seeing all the women from different backgrounds getting to know one another. The narrator was amazing with all the different accents and manners of speaking! There were some powerful lessons in this book. I highly recommend it for those who want a boost in their faith, prayer time, and personal worship time.
