'Jesus Calling' Sales Soar After Walker Speech at Iowa Faith Summit

Newsmax reports:

Sales of a Christian devotional book have spiked since Republican Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin read excerpts from it during his speech at the Iowa Faith & Freedom Coalition last Saturday.

Walker, who is considering a 2016 White House run, read from "Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace in His Presence," which was written in the first-person voice of Jesus by author Sarah Young.

Young is a former missionary to Australia and other countries, Religion News Service reports. The book was published in 2004 by Thomas Nelson Publishers Inc., a division of HarperCollins.

In his speech to about 1,000 evangelical Republicans at the Point of Grace Church just outside Des Moines, Walker read from the book's entry on June 4, the date of his Wisconsin recall election in 2012.
