Wells spoke with rolling out about the book and what inspired her to write it.
What is this book about?
God is Calling You is a 31-day devotional, and it’s filled with prayers, scriptures, journaling prompts, and stories from my life, to encourage people in their [faith]. When I was writing the book, I truly wanted God’s will for my life, and through that process, I was given confirmation that I am supposed to be writing books and I’m supposed to be speaking. God called me to this area, and so I believe that this book will help people discover God’s will for their lives and really follow the purpose that He has for them.
What inspired you to write this book?
My inspiration really came from a hard place I was going through. I had just lost my job, I was going through health issues, and I had lost my sister to cancer. There were so many things piling onto each other, and I just got desperate. I’m like, “God, I don’t know what’s going on in my life. I really just want you to show your face, and do something miraculous in my life.” It came from a hard place, and I truly wanted to seek God and ask his will for my life and get back on my feet because I was going through so much. I just wanted him to change my life. I wanted to improve in these different areas, so what I did was I decided to draw near to God. The verse says, “Draw near to God and he’ll draw near you,” and that’s exactly what he did. I decided to start praying and fasting, and I joined Pastor Michael Todd’s Transformation Church. They did praying and fasting in January 2022, so I decided to join with them. In one of his prayers, he said, “A lot of things will come out of the fast. There will be new jobs; there will be new things that God does.” Then he said, “Some of you will write new books.” When he said that, I was like, maybe during this time I should just write a new book. So during that time, I decided to write this book, God Is Calling You.
