Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

CAROL ROUND, blogger, self-syndicated international columnist, Christian author, and inspirational speaker began her journey with the Lord in October 2001 when she admitted her need for His guidance.

Since then, she has sought a deeper relationship with Him through reading scripture, Bible study, and the personal discipline of keeping a daily prayer journal. After being encouraged by other Christian women, she penned an encouraging book on journaling called “Journaling with Jesus: How to Draw Closer to God” and the companion workbook, “The 40-Day Challenge.”

Before writing her books on prayer journaling, two collections of her weekly faith-based column, A MATTER OF FAITH, and FAITH MATTERS, were released by Buoy Up Press in book form. A third collection, SOLA FIDE: by FAITH alone, debuted in 2012.

She wrote a weekly faith-based column that ran in 14 Oklahoma newspapers from 2005 - 2013 before quitting to start a blog. Her blog posts have also been picked up by other online blogs and have led to an international audience.

Because of this worldwide exposure, her newspaper columns and blog posts have been reprinted in several foreign newspapers and magazines. She loves receiving emails from her readers, including those from India, Uganda, Belfast, Australia, Great Britain, France, Kenya and many more.

Carol’s writing has also led to a speaking ministry as well as nine books, including her latest, "Growing Confidently in Your Faith: A lifelong journey to becoming more like Jesus."

Her writing has also been published in numerous anthologies, including several by Guideposts.

After a 30 teaching career, Carol retired in 2005, knowing God had other plans for her life. Did you know you won’t find the word “retirement,” in the Bible? Carol calls it redirection and reminds others who are close to “retirement” to seek God’s redirection for their lives.

She is the mother of two grown sons, four adorable and talented grandchildren, and the obedient owner of a spoiled rotten dog named Harley.

When she isn’t writing or speaking, she loves spending time with her grandchildren, shooting photos, volunteering at her church, going on mission trips, hiking, and getting her hands dirty in her flowerbeds.

5.0 out of 5 stars I absolutely love these books
Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2016
I absolutely love these books! I don't know about you, but I always loved going to Grandma's house, and these books share a great story of Charlie and Emma doing just that! Not only that, but the books have important life lessons in them. These books do a great job at showing kids how to save, give, and spend their money wisely! They teach children how they can use 3 jars to create their good money habits at an early age, which is a lesson they will use in their later years as well. I know my children needed to learn how to use money wisely, and it really helped them to understand the importance of saving, spending, and giving money. I love the fact that the author, Carol Round, shows how to give back to our Veterans, supporting small businesses, and even helping our family when they need it. To top it off, there is a recipe in the back of each book that was part of the story! That was my girls' favorite part! There are also your own cutouts to start your own savings, spending, and giving money jars! How cool is that! The books are also beautifully illustrated by Cheryll Proffitt! So, if you are looking for a series of books to help your children understand the “value of a dollar,” I highly recommend Nana's 3 Jars!

4.0 out of 5 stars Saving, spending, giving – for kids!
Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2015
An author I’ve worked with in the past reached out to me recently about her new children’s book, “Nana’s 3 Jars“, so I was thrilled to accept a copy for review. Carol Round’s previous book I’d worked with her on was “Journaling with Jesus” about prayer journaling for adults. I took part in her challenge – journaling daily during Lent – and saw a huge difference in my thinking as I did so. So, when Carol asked me to read her book with my boys, I was happy to do it!

3 jarsEven before we opened the book, Max was excited. “It’s for 3 year olds!” he said (because of the 3 on the cover). Once we opened it and started reading, he immediately related to the boy and girl in the story who were on their way to Nana’s house to spend the day. Our boys spent two nights with my parents recently and did all sorts of fun things – including playing with all the big kids at church who my parents teach in Sunday school. Max loved it. (Mason is happy anytime people smile at him, talk to him, or hold him, at this point, which means he’s a very happy baby!)

In the story, the sister and brother learn from Nana what it means to set apart money for spending, for saving, and for giving. This financial lesson is one that I’m convinced we all need. I love the idea of teaching it right from the beginning of a child’s understanding about money. One way the children in the story internalize the lesson is by using some of the giving money to buy ingredients and make cookies, which they then take to share with veterans.

One of Max’s favorite things to do is help make dishes in the kitchen. We’ve been on a waffle kick lately, since my waffle maker is so easy to use. He loves pouring in each ingredient, stirring, and watching the ingredients become a meal or a “dessert item” as he calls them. That has to come from the babysitter :) Carol includes a chocolate chip cookies recipe that I’m dying to try!

For the financial lesson and the recipe especially, “Nana’s 3 Jars” deserves 4 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Story!
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2014
Carol Round has done it again! She has written another book that is simple, but carries a huge message. In this case it's in the form of Nana's 3 Jars: Giving Generously (Volume 1). Carol has written a story that shares the message of how important it is to give. The message is shared through a story of a grandmother's interaction with her grandchildren. The story is written simple enough so that children can read it on their own and understand it, but also in a way that is not too simplistic so that even adults can enjoy it.

As I read the story, I drew another message that goes beyond the lesson of giving. For me, the story's other message is also one that reminds us, the adults, about the crucial role and responsibility that we have in raising our children and continuing with our grandchildren. It's a message found in the Old Testament: Teach them to your children. Talk about them all the time—whether you’re at home or walking along the road or going to bed at night, or getting up in the morning. Deuteronomy 11:19 These words tell us how important it is to make the most of every opportunity that we have to teach our children, not just the importance of giving, but all things that will help them in their own lives, with the hope that they too will pass it on to future generations.

Nana's 3 Jars. A beautiful story with a beautiful message.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grandpa Seal of Approval
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2015
Once in a while you run across a children's book that just blows your socks off. Nana's 3 Jars by Carol Round is that kind of book. Not only is it well written and full of life lessons, it is also fun to read. Add to that the quality of the illustrations in the book and it becomes perfect book to share with your children.

I loved the storyline that Carol Round developed. Not only is it well written and age appropriate but it spells out three important life principle for us to live by in a way that even I can understand. Her storytelling style makes the lesson come to life and easy relate to.

I really enjoyed Nana's 3 Jars by Carol Round and I highly recommend this book to ALL ages.

I give it my "Grandpa Seal of Approval."
