Resources for Christian Caregivers

As you might suspect, I do not have all the secrets, answers, or knowledge on how to become the perfect caregiver. Therefore, I thought I would create this Resource Library.  I'm grateful that there is help on the internet especially across the pages of social networks, and better still, for the advice of close friends who have either been caregivers or are going through this journey with me. 

There are plenty of books out there to help us, but this is a list of books suggested by other caregivers.

DEVOTIONALS
I can't stress enough how important it is to have a deep personal relationship with the Lord. Only He can guide us through this journey. Reading through a devotional each year, along with your Bible, is priceless. Here's the ones that I've read so far, as well as recommendations from other caregivers.

1. Long Live the Child by Christine Wyrtzen
2. More Precious Than Silver by Joni Eareckson Tada
3. Jesus Calling by Sarah Young
4. He is Real by Millie Stamm
