Before you know it, I'll be a grandmother, so I'm keeping an eye on the children's books that are coming out. Faith Forward by Ruth and Patrick Schwenk is a little unique in that it's a family devotional book, which means it's for families with young children, but it's meant for the family to do…
My first teaching job out of college was a Christian school on the other side of town. It required a 45 minute commute each way, and I'd listen to the radio while driving. Each afternoon on the way home, the station would play a short segment with Dr. Tony Evans. I loved listening to him…
As a soon-to-be grandmother, I've begun adding children's books to my review repertoire. I'm finding there are some great Bible study and devotional books available nowadays, which is pretty cool because I don't remember so many choices when my daughter was little. How Great Is Our God is a unique devotional in that it combines…
It seems right now I am surrounded by women going through overwhelming situations. When I talk to them, I feel their desperation. They're drowning and struggling to stay afloat. They need hope, something to remind them that they're not alone. God hasn't forgotten them. He still loves them and is with them during these days…
I love jewelry, especially jewelry that's eye catching or tells a story, so I immediately jumped on the opportunity to check out Holly Lane Christian Jewelry.

It's still October, but Hallmark is already in Christmas mode, and Lifetime kicks off It's a Wonderful Lifetime this weekend, so it must be that time of year already. Personally, I much prefer to wait until Thanksgiving to start my Christmas movie viewing. However, Christmas Jars hits theaters November 4, and I don't want you…
Guest Post By Rev. Clay Herd Getting Up From Being Down is a book by Dr. S. Todd Townsend. With him being a pastor, educator, and rap hip hop artist, I didn’t really know what to expect when I picked it up. I will admit my hesitation in this book. From the cover it looks…
I've always loved children's books, and with a grandbaby on the way, it's given me added incentive to keep up with the latest releases. Night Night Devotions by award-winning author Amy Parker is a devotional for the littlest ones. Night Night Devotions has a nice, sturdy hardback cover with fun graphics that will appeal to…
I Am Brave is the latest book in the Brave Girls series. I wasn't familiar with the series until I got the review invitation, but I'm excited to discover it. I Am Brave is the kind of book I would have absolutely loved to have when I was a tween, and I look forward to…
