The Power of a Well-Placed Yes
God's Abundant Faithfulness in a Small Church

Joni's debut book.

 

Discouraged church workers take heart!

Your faithful Yes matters. Ever wonder if your 

contributions matter? Does God value obedience?

​

This memoir of one congregation spotlights the discovery that their presence in the community matters. Their purpose is clarified in each Yes. Laugh and cry as you watch God work in the lives of these everyday people.

​

Ever wonder if your contributions matter? Does God value obedience?

​

Something amazing happens when ordinary people say yes. Yes, I'll talk to someone who not like me. Yes, I'll clean up a mess that's not my own. Yes, the rude person needs love too. Yes to laughter and tears. With each Yes, we find community and connection. And we understand others in surprising ways. 

​

Walk the road to Yes - Observe the impact of God's faithfulness.

Hear the stories of Yes. Remember that God is trustworthy.

Witness the events of Yes. Renew your desire to be part of God's plan.

Marvel at the outcomes of Yes. Experience a servant's heartbeat.

Identify with the struggles of Yes. Recognize that God does not abandon you.

Rest in the hope of Yes. Leave the results in God's hands. 

​

Twenty-eight years of experiences as a pastor's wife equipped Joni Topper to tell these inspiring narratives of God's goodness in the church where she's lived out her own faith. Her hope is that you will find God's glory in your story and be encouraged. Joni's joy permeates as she shares the faithfulness of God in compelling storyteller fashion. This singer/songwriter/speaker and author knows her subject.

In a noisy world, goodness still speaks. Come listen.

Pick up an empty basket and get ready to collect the good stuff. In Gather the Goodness, twenty-three writers harvest the blessings found in the fruit of the Spirit. These pages invite you to reflect on goodness and her friends—kindness, faithfulness, and gentleness—in a collection of voices, styles, and stories.

Explore how God displays these beautiful traits and see how the Spirit expresses them through everyday believers.

  • Where there is love, kindness reaches out to someone despite what others might think.

  • Where there is love, goodness notices the needs of someone who feels invisible.

  • Where there is love, faithfulness stays loyal no matter the cost.

  • Where there is love, gentleness helps us want to care for someone who is hurting.
