In the deceptively simple format of a list, Karen Ehman provides a wonderful testimony of the love of God in action which spurs the reader on to spread the love themselves. Practical ideas are shared with testimonies of how these ideas have been used to make peoples day by the author and those around her. I have never been so touched by a list before.

Karen Ehman seems to thrive by doing things for others and she wants to share her knowledge and insight with you. She enjoys spreading kindness to those around her – and wouldn’t the world be a better place if we all did that?
Make Their Day is basically a book of lists – ways to make someone’s day a little brighter, a little easier, a little more fun. The subtitle says it better – “101 simple, powerful ways to love others well.” Karen gives you 101 ways to spread love and kindness to those around you.
The book is broken down into groupings: In Your Circle of Friends, Within Your Own Family, Across the Miles or through the Screen and others. Some ideas are very simple like buying coffee for a friend or writing someone a handwritten note about how much they mean to you. Others are more elaborate and would take more planning – like planning a slumber party for you and your friends or creating a snack station at your office so people can stop by for a quick pick-me-up. I’d like to say the ideas are endless, but truly there are 101 of them – but they can spark a person’s creativity to come up with some of their own ideas too.
I really enjoyed this book and the ideas Karen shared! I hope to encourage my family to spread kindness now and throughout the new year. If you are tired of all the negativity and anger going around in the world today, get this book and follow the suggestions to bring more love and kindness to those around you. Maybe it will start a movement!
