"The first story I heard Angela share was about her Mount Kilimanjaro climbing journey. She told about the disappointment of not being able to summit the mountain (after a year of training), and as she spoke, she connected in a profound way to me and her audience. Astounded: Encountering God in Everyday Moments, does the same thing. It is rooted in honesty and reflection—an encouraging narrative of daily life struggles and the joyful realization that God is walking with you in each moment. Angela fills each page with transparency and hope—as she did the first time I heard her share a story." -Lisa Potter, Executive Director of Women Who Lead, Potomac Ministry Network
"I love how Angela hits everyday situations, struggles, and successes head on in her Astounded: Encountering God in Everyday Moments devotional. Bringing a practical approach to finding miracles in ordinary moments, Angela helps you discover purpose in the mundane as well as the miraculous through her personal touch while pointing you to Jesus. You will leave each day encouraged with practical steps to live your best life, have a renewed outlook, and unearth God in places you never knew you could. It’s a daily breath of fresh air you will want to read over and over, and one you will want to share with others."-Jessie Seneca, Founder of More of Him Ministries, Author, Speaker, and Leadership Trainer
"I rarely enjoy inspirational devotional style books yet, Astounded, is one most-welcome exception. Instead of the usual light-weight faith fluff, Angela Donadio provides some deep, soul-searching considerations through her candid personal stories—stories of our jointly shared human realities that we don’t readily admit. Beyond inspiring us to consider our ways, Angela offers clear and compelling direction for us to embrace the higher ways available to us as new creatures in Christ. Angela’s heart to see women become all God intended is evident as this book is clearly a passionate investment in her mission. This is the one book of this type, I wholly recommend."-Rev. Pamela Christian, Award-winning Author of the Faith to Live By series, Speaker, Media Personality, International Evangelist and Apostle
"Angela's stories ripple with authenticity and promise of a life lived on purpose. Through vulnerability and humor, she points out all the quiet places we find God working in our ordinary lives, and she encourages us to sit at his feet in worship, to conform to his image, and to proclaim his astonishing mercies to the world around us. These devotionals will deliver accessible doses of heaven into your day. Enjoy!"-Sue Schlesman, Author of Soulspeak: Praying God into Unexpected Places (Selah Award finalist 2019)
"Angela has a beautiful writing style that keeps the reader engaged by skillfully weaving timeless Bible truths together with unique and compelling real-life experiences. With encouraging devotions to meditate on weekly, I highly recommend Astounded as your next devotional!"-Donna Sparks, Author & Assemblies of God Evangelist
"Prepare to feel loved and cherished!! Astounded is a constant reminder of how God is in every moment of your every day.

"Have you ever felt worn out from disappointment? Exhausted from the repeat cycle of releasing your burdens to Jesus only to pick them back up again? You are not alone.

Using biblical application and personal reflection, Angela challenges us to experience the power of viewing our daily life through a holy lens. Her devotional teaches us that a surrendered heart is the catalyst for seeing extraordinary miracles in our everyday lives."-Kim Bohn, Brain Tumor Thriver and Founder/Owner of Beaded Miracles
