​What's new from CBP?
CBP is proud to announce the release of My Closet: A 52-Week Interactive Journal and Devotional by Shaunda Dawson
My Closet is a devotional journal by author Shaunda Dawson, designed to guide readers through a yearlong transformational spiritual journey. Shaunda Dawson’s thoughtful writing invites readers to join soulful conversations about spirituality through interactive exercises and personal journals. My Closet is centered around self-discovery and sustaining a fulfilling relationship with God. Each week, readers can explore their relationship with faith by utilizing the thought-provoking writing prompts that work alongside the author’s heart-felt, genuine observations on faith and life’s many challenges. Shaunda began writing her debut book in 2020 during a tumultuous time, saying the piece was “really birthed out of pain” after the loss of her mother. With the encouragement of those closest to her and inspiration from her church, she created a work that would be an outlet for her spiritual insights while helping others to form their own.
