Homeschool Bravely

This year has been one of homeschooling at our house and so this book caught my attention. I hadn't thought through some things that homeschoolers may face as far as struggles, so this book was good to draw my attention to them.

One thing that I really like was that home schooling is not school at home. Instead, we have the chance to use everything as a chance to learn and to create the world as a learning environment. Love that!

He is Enough {Book Review}

I really enjoyed getting to read through He is Enough. Asheritah walks you through the book of Colossians and gives you tools that will help you be able to study the Bible on your own.

One thing I found unique about this book was that ever chapter had a "meal on the go" section that was for when you didn't have much time. You could did into the Bible verses, but not spend a lot of time. If you had the time, you can finish out the chapter. Such a next concept.

I really like that this book was very Biblical based. There wasn't a whole lot of extras, but kept pointing you back to the Bible.

Kids Say the Wisest Things {Book Review}

Kids Say the Wisest Things was a cute book. The author took stories from little kids and applied them to spiritual truths. I thought that this was a great book to listen to whiles working around the house. The chapters were fun to listen to and challenging at the same time.

Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday {Book Review}

Grumpy Mom Takes a Holiday was a nonfiction book that actually kept me reading. I really enjoyed the book. There wasn't a lot of new information in there, but there was lots of things in this book that I needed to be reminded of. I could tell Valerie was right there with me and struggling with some things that I am struggling with and she gives great tips to overcome them.

One of the things that really stuck out to me, that I think our generation really struggles with is phone usage. One thing she does is to not get on her phone for an hour in the morning and for an hour after her kids naps. She said this helps to keep her from being so dependent on her phone. To me, this sounds very doable. These were the kind of practical tips that Valerie presented.

Susie: The Life and Legacy of Susannah Spurgeon {Book Review}

I can't say that I really though about what Susannah, or other preacher's wives, during this time gave up to be a marry a preacher. They didn't always see their husband a lot and were left to raising their children by themselves.

Susie: The Life and Legacy of Susannah Spurgeon was a good read. It wasn't a book you couldn't put down, but it was good to think about life in another time period.

Thanks to Moody for a copy of this book.

Priceless Devotional in the Psalms Review

I had read a book a few years ago about Jen Barrick and how she was in an accident. She was able to recover, but it did leave some damage to her brain. To this day, it is almost like she is stuck at the age of 15. She is able to use this as a gift to encourage other girls in what they are feeling.

Priceless is filled with verses and relate able information for especially those who are in high school. This book would be a great starting point for a young teenage girl who is trying to start a devotional time each day with God.

Some good books about discipleship

Simple Discipleship seems to me to be about balancing. Which doesn't all of life seem to be about finding a good balance?

I enjoyed the practical elements in this book about discipleship. I know this area is one that I need to work on a lot.

Thanks to Tyndale for a copy of this book.



Discipleship was a great book to listen to. A.W. Tozer is full of some great info. If you are looking for a quick easy read, this is not the book. I did enjoy listening to this book and being challenged to live a more authentic Christian life.

Thanks to Moody for a copy of this book.
