Book Review Get On Your Knee Replacements and Pray!



Get on Your Knee Replacements and Pray! If your not dead, your not done by the Kandel Sisters. 
A super zany, hilarious book looking at life in retirement and realizing that if you are not dead you have something to offer to further God's kingdom here on earth. I could not put this book down. It was witty, fun, and yet rang of truth - God's truth. The sisters write as one voice, yet occasionally from the information given in the introduction it may be obvious which sister is writing that particular chapter. Most of the time, the reader is not aware. I loved this book so much, I passed it on to a friend to read. I think both of us just found the title hilarious and it just made us want to pick up the book to see what it was about. 

This is a great book and I highly recommend it.

Book Review 100 Inspirational Quotes by Joyce Meyer















Great book. Loved the pictures. Really beautiful. Lots of great bible verses along with a simple easy to relate to explanations. This is one of those books that I like to pick up when I am struggling with something and the verses just seem to speak to me. The truth in the verses just washes over me, comforts and calms. This would make a great gift for someone special female in your life.

Writing Gloves

I fell in love with these writing gloves. Living in the north where we get lots of snow and bitter cold the idea of being able to have some warmth covering your hands but still be able to utilize your fingers to write is simply amazing. The fact they are soft cashmere is a total bonus. Give them a try! I bet you too will fall in love with them. Plus they come in 13 different colors. I think the Heather Purple would be pretty.

book review James and Ephesians by Joyce Meyer



New Bible Study Series.
I have not done a bible study by Joyce Meyer before and I really like her writing style and her thoughts. Her commentary is very insightful. The sections cover just a few verses of scripture and allows you to really delve deep into the word and reflect on the meaning of those verses. Often times, she will back up her points by quoting or referring to other scripture in the bible. I find to be important and meaningful as I will go look those up for myself. I like those connections. I love the layout and while its a small thing - I like the amount of words on each page and in each section - its not overwhelming yet is more than doing a daily devotion. I find I actually do a section or sometimes several section each day. It is easy to stick with it. Plus I am just getting so much out of what she has to say about the verses. 

In each of the books there is space for personal reflection and thoughts. I think this is wonderful and it is important to take the time to truly reflect on what God is saying to me in those verses. Writing also helps to cement the thoughts and ideas for me. This time though I have to confess I am not doing it in the book itself. I took a class on journalling and have a journal that I am utilizing with these studies. It has been so rewarding and I have enjoyed being creative in the journal. I add pictures, thoughts, phrases, words, bible scripture. Often I will take her personal reflection questions and speak to them in the journal. The questions are insightful and on point to the lesson covered. 

I highly recommend both of these studies. This is a link where info about both books can be foundhttp://bit.ly/JamesandEphesians.
