Quitman Author Julie Ann Patrick Releases Children’s Book “Honk If You Love Jesus”
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Julie Ann Patrick, an author from Quitman, Georgia, has released a new children’s book, "Honk If You Love Jesus," published through Christian Faith Publishing. The story follows a brother-and-sister pair of goslings who join their Sunday School class and Christian guidance counselors on a journey south to vacation Bible school, learning to form the letter V to guide their flock along the way.
According to the publisher’s description, the book uses the goslings’ migration as a way to introduce young readers to themes of faith, teamwork, and what it describes as God’s presence in both people and nature. The story also works in what the publisher calls spoofs of movies, television personalities, and familiar nursery rhyme rhythms, aimed at holding the attention of both children and the parents reading along with them. The book is categorized as juvenile fiction.
Patrick, who still lives on her family’s farm in Quitman, is a mother of three and grandmother of five. The announcement describes her as a longtime teller of stories within her own family, and says her writing is shaped by her Christian faith. "My greatest joy in writing this book has been sharing with children how Jesus is the source of true victory in our lives," Patrick said in the announcement. "Through the journey of these goslings, I hope young readers discover that when we form ourselves into the shape of faith, we can soar to incredible heights."
The book is available through Christian Faith Publishing’s website, in bookstores, and through major online retailers including Amazon, Apple iTunes Store, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees this as part of a steady, long-running stream of faith-based children’s titles aimed less at the bestseller list than at Sunday School shelves and family bookcases, a niche with its own loyal, if quiet, readership.

New Book Offers Couples 24 Questions to Ask Before Marriage
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Author J Renee Cole has released "24 Questions to Equally Yoked in Thought and Deed: Forget Finding Mr. or Ms. Perfect, Seek Mr. or Ms. Right-For-You," a relationship guide structured around two dozen open-ended questions meant to surface disagreements couples often avoid until after the wedding.
Rather than offering advice or prescribing particular beliefs, the book’s format puts the questions themselves at the center, covering topics including disability, infidelity, financial hardship, adoption and fertility, imprisonment and debt, gun ownership, care for aging parents, prenuptial agreements, and major lifestyle spending. The premise, according to the announcement, is that couples who build engagements on attraction and hope rather than on tested alignment about hard scenarios risk discovering incompatibility only once a marriage, and often children, are already in the picture.
"I wrote this book because I’ve watched too many couples realize, far too late, that they never actually discussed the things that matter most," Cole said in the announcement. "Marriage requires more than love; it demands honest conversation about who we really are and what we truly believe. These twenty-four questions are an invitation to that conversation."
The book is published through Christian Faith Publishing and is available at bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry notes that premarital-questions guides are a familiar category in relationship publishing, but the specific list here, built around scenarios like imprisonment, disability, and aging-parent care rather than the usual money-and-communication checklist, is a sharper bet than most.

Author Robin Jorgensen’s New Book “HOPE” Recounts Twelve Years of Nomadic Life and Faith
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Robin Jorgensen has published "HOPE," a memoir drawn from twelve years she spent living a nomadic life after first moving out on her own. The book, published through Christian Faith Publishing, is available now in bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.
According to the announcement, Jorgensen’s twelve years on the road were marked by wrong turns and unexpected detours, the kind of extended uncertainty that might have worn down someone’s resolve. She writes instead about holding onto hope through that stretch of her life, and about a faith she describes as unshaken even though she grew up without formal church structure. The publisher’s description frames her belief in a higher power as a constant across those years, something that steadied her when her circumstances did not.
The book centers on what Jorgensen describes as a turning point in her thinking: the recognition that she already had what she needed within herself to get through the uncertainty, rather than needing to find it from other people or outside validation. "This book emerged from my lived experiences during those twelve transformative years," Jorgensen said in the announcement. "I wanted to share how hope sustained me when circumstances seemed impossible, and how recognizing my own worth became the key to my liberation."
The publisher describes "HOPE" as a candid account of faith tested over a long period rather than in a single crisis, and positions Jorgensen’s story as an argument that spiritual growth tends to come out of difficulty rather than comfort.
Memoirs built around the word "hope" are a crowded shelf, and Studio CarryOnHarry will be curious whether Jorgensen’s account distinguishes itself through the specifics of those twelve years on the road, since that level of lived detail is often what separates a memoir that stays with a reader from one that doesn’t.
