Do It on Purpose

Stephanie Franklin holds degrees in theology and education, and this 2015 Heavenly Realm Publishing title speaks directly to Christians who have lost their sense of calling — people who started with a clear sense of God's purpose and found it buried under hardship, discouragement, or plain exhaustion. Franklin's approach is to reframe difficulty as divinely purposeful rather than evidence of failure, drawing on her theological training and life-coaching background. The faith-rooted encouragement here is genuine and the target audience — believers navigating setbacks — is real and underserved. The honest caveat is that this is a small-press title with very limited verifiable critical coverage, and content depth is hard to assess from the outside. Available through Christianbook.com and Target, which suggests real distribution. For Christian readers in a dry season, this is worth a look — go in knowing what you are getting.
