5 February 2024 – Nashville, TN – Author and multi-award-winning artist and songwriter Matthew West will release My Story, Your Glory, his sixth book, on March 19, 2024 (K-LOVE Books). He wrote this 30-day devotional to help guide readers to discover how God’s love can rewrite our stories and explore how God’s glory redeems every chapter of our lives.
With My Story, Your Glory, which was inspired by his hit song and No. 1 album of the same name, it is West’s goal to help readers reflect on the less-than-perfect parts of their lives and to point them to examples in Scripture and how God redeemed their stories while encouraging them to give God the glory in both the best days and worst days. Along with sharing his own experiences throughout the book, My Story, Your Glory reveals how God brings hope into all situations and that He will work all things together for the good of those who love Him.
“There is nothing more inspiring and uplifting than witnessing stories of God at work in people’s lives,” West exclaims. “Our testimonies of God’s faithfulness have the power to embolden each other, carry each other through hard times, and change the world. This is a devotional about your story…a guide to help you remember that your story is being written by the Master Storyteller and that you are here on this earth for a very important reason: to give God glory. Each day challenges you to consider a new truth of what God is currently doing or has done in your life, and to turn the focus of your life toward the glory of the One who loves you.”
Beginning today, the book is available for pre-order by visiting his site, MatthewWest.com, or wherever books are sold. As an incentive, those who pre-order will receive additional perks, including an exclusive virtual launch party.
West concludes, “When you complete this devotional, my hope is that you will have a journal that documents God’s enduring presence in every chapter of your story – a written testimony that you can go back to again and again whenever you need encouragement. I’m excited to spend 30 days with you learning how to craft, share, and live a more meaningful and fulfilling story with the one life we get to live. It’s your story for His Glory.”
