I liked his book & all the creative suggestions, encouraging scriptures, notable quips and recipes to help be more present and attentive to all the heart drops in our daily lives. Karen gives wisdom on how to be more attentive to those around us, helping us to hear, see and feel when we can reach out and show the love of Jesus to them all the time.

I love Karen Ehman and look to her as a mentor in my life even though I have never met her. She always gives wisdom to women in any stage of life. Listen, Love and Repeat did not disappoint me as it made me rethink how I often I show kindness in everyday life.

I loved her idea to listening to heart drops of those around me. I kept heart drops in mind when I purchased Christmas gifts this year. I have a job where I talk to other moms daily and I am consciously trying to show kindness and a listening ear to them.

Karen is an inspiration for hospitality and I was reminded in this book that people would rather be loved in an imperfect home than not be invited at all. As always Karens recipes never disappoint and her Peanut Butter Monster Oatmeal Cookies are a new favorite for my children.

I received an advanced copy of Listen, Love and Repeat, but I would have definitely bought this book to add to my collection of Karens books. Most of my books end up at the used book store, but this one will be reread yearly.

Karen Ehman provides so many creative ideas to touch the lives of people all around us in ways that will encourage and spark a kindness revolution. Her ties to scripture make the book even more meaningful. I highly recommend this book.

I was given an advanced reading copy of Listen, Love, Repeat by Karen Ehman for an honest review of the book.

This is a wonderful book written with much love and insight. Our world needs this kind of book, especially right now. The subtitle of the book says it all Other-centered living in a self-centered world. It seems that today people are more concerned about getting their voice heard than listening to others. They want to make sure they get what they want and have no concern for what anyone else may want or need.

This book sets out to change that. It prompts you to look at others differently; not to see them as those that get in the way of what you want but as an opportunity to give back; to lend a helping hand; to show love and kindness. What makes Karens insights particularly helpful is that she doesnt just tell you to get over yourself and start being nicer to others. There are real, practical ideas in the book. She addresses different types of people that you may come across and fun easy ways to sprinkle kindness as she puts it. She even helps to uncover methods you can use to bestow kindness on those around you that may be hard to love like the grumpy neighbor or the unruly kid. Everyone can use some kindness shown their way, the hard to love most of all.

I really enjoyed the book, the lessons, the personal stories and the ideas! I hope to encourage my family to spread kindness now and throughout the new year. If you are tired of all the negativity and anger going around in the world today, get this book and follow the suggestions to bring more love and kindness to those around you. Maybe it will start a movement!

This book will make you STOP to Listen, Love, Repeat. The personal stories that Karen shares not only make her relatable but the purpose of the book relatable. You will find yourself scattering kindness and maybe even stepping outside of your comfort zone to do so. I not only tuned in more to my family members, but to other people that crossed my path throughout the day. The movement that came out of this book, #5dollardash, will warm your heart. This is a quick and easy read. There may be a little bit of repetition throughout chapters, but hey, that's how we talk. I bought a couple of copies to share with friends and family. My hope is that they pass it along to their family & friends. Disclaimer: I was given an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
