Blogging For Books Review: Torn

I just finished reading Torn by Jud Wilhite   In it he teaches that when we trust in God and his word the pieces of our lives will come together.  Maybe not always as we had thought or planned but in hind site in the way it was supposed to be.  A good book with a lot of real life examples and the application of Gods word to real life.

Blogging For Books Review: A Sound Among The Trees

A Sound Among the Trees by Susan Meissner is a great book!  I love the way it follows the history of the family from the civil war to the present time.  Rumors of espionage and ghosts add to the mystery.  I really liked the characters and the flow of the book.  I liked this book so much I am definitely going to read her other two books The Shape of Mercy and Lady in Waiting.

Blogging For Books Review: Enemies of the Heart

I liked this book a lot.  It is written in an easy to read conversational style.  I love the way the author explains biblical stories in an easy to understand way and I ecspecially love the real life examples of these stories and the lessons to be learned from them.

It is clear that the author is a gifted pastor with a knack for giving common sense advice about why we do the things we do. He explains where our feelings of guilt, anger, greed and jealousy come from and how to confront these feelings and gives sound advice on getting past them.

Another great thing about this book are the discussion questions for each chapter at the end of the book that you can work on with or without a group.

This book was provided free of charge by WaterBrook Press for this review.
