The Dunes

Who has God created you to be and do? What's holding you back from getting there? The Dunes is an immersive faith-based journey of revelations, inspiration, breakthroughs, and transformation. Part allegory, and part journal, The Dunes helps readers explore issues of Fear, Commitment, Forgiveness, Trust, Perseverance, Surrender, and Gratitude.

The Dunes journey is for those ready to step out of their comfort zone, examine the issues holding them back, and OVERCOME THEM. Each chapter takes you through an allegorical story of The One and The Other, both wavering and flawed as they attempt to trust God to fulfill their greatest hopes. In addition, each chapter contains an inspirational narrative, journal questions, and a challenge for the reader. The journal questions usher you into a time of self-reflection and growth, followed by the end of the chapter challenge to help you solidify your new beginning with action.

CAUTION: Readers of this book are subject to significant changes for the better. Side effects may include frequent smiling and enjoying life in every season.

AMAZON BOOK REVIEWS

"We bought the hard copy. As soon as my husband began reading this book he immediately stopped and asked me to buy FIVE more copies. He was so moved and wanted to share it with other family members and friends."

-Teresa B

"As a longtime skeptic of so-called "self-help" books, I have to admit that I wasn't prepared for the intense experience of working through this book. I was happily surprised to discover that "The Dunes" is beyond the run-of-the-mill self-help tome. Part storyteller and part sage, Erin Sands has crafted a deceptively simple read that will guide you deep into uncharted paths of self-discovery. The questions she poses at the end of each of the 7 revelations invite you to be confrontational and brutally honest with yourself. Personally, the challenge to be "intrepid" by "committing to someone or something completely without fear" was like a swift kick in pants. To that I can only add: Ouch and thank you."

-T. Faye G

"I am LOVING the guidance and insights "The Dunes" has to offer. Erin Sands writes in a clear, compelling, inspirational tone that lets the reader discover "truths" for themselves - then gently challenges you to raise the standards of your life to "go for your dreams" and achieve effective, empowering change. With each revelation - the book encourages you to "peel back the layers" of limiting beliefs that hold each of us back in some way."

-Irene W

"I thought I knew myself... I even thought I was in touch with my deepest dreams and desires. The Dunes is taking me on a journey beyond the center of my being and bringing things to the surface that I never knew were there. The Dunes is more than a book and a good read... IT IS A JOURNEY!"

-Jessica H

"This book couldn't have come at a better time for me. I have experienced many radical changes over the past few years, some of which have left me wondering just who I really am and what it is I want out of life. I've also been working on seeking God's will and direction, since my own direction often leaves me lost! This book, though I haven't finished it yet, is helping me to do all of that. Written as a story or fable, with 7 different "Revelations." At the end of each revelation are journal questions, a challenge, and a "growth check." As a lifelong journaler/diarist, looking back over my journals I see mostly complaints. This book is teaching me to use journal as a tool for growth, rather than a place to write about problems without seeking solutions. Wonderful growth tool! Thank you Erin Sands!"

-Carole K

'"The Dunes' made me really think about my life journey! It is thought provoking and compelling all at the same time! I enjoyed the personal journey of Erin Sands. Her sharing her life put the whole message in perspective for me! Great read!"

-Cheri A

"Intriguing format, very well written and thought out, The Dunes will help you prioritize your life and work through to better relationships. Valuable to singles or couples, anyone can apply these ideas and processes to improve their lives. Christ-centered without beating people over the head with Him."

-JMW
