Purely Wanna Be is a heartfelt devotional for anyone who has ever felt the quiet (or loud) tug of wanting to be more-more faithful, more courageous, more like Jesus. Through honest reflections, personal stories, and biblical truths, Vic invites readers to embrace the beauty of being a "Wanna Be" -not in the world's striving sense, but in God's gentle, refining way. Each devotion explores the desire to become who God truly calls us to be: a wanna be patient, wanna be forgiving, wanna be bold in faith, wanna be second so Christ can be first.
This devotional gently reminds us that it's okay to not have arrived yet-that the wanting, the trying, the growing are all part of God's amazing process of making us new. Whether you're just beginning your faith journey or longing to deepen your walk with Christ, Purely Wanna Be will encourage you to keep becoming...in Him.
