Simple Encouragement for Real-Life Momentsâ. In this book, Hope writes as though she is best friends with us, her readers, as she takes the lead and guides us on a fun and fruitful journey of infusing discovery and adventure into our daily lives.

Dyerâs new release from Moody Publishers is so helpful and relevantâŚÂ Continue reading
Books From GirlDefined Ministries Never Disappoint
Over the years, Kristen Clark and Bethany Beal of GirlDefined Ministries have taught me so much about living as a godly woman and daughter of our Lord. With each new book they release, I am challenged to grow in new ways. According to Kristen and Bethany this new book is their most personal one yet, and I definitely agree – yet it is not just a âmemoir-typeâ book that gives their stories and leaves the readers wondering how it affects them. In fact, the opposite is true.  Continue reading

I have read each and every one of Kristen Clark and Bethany Bealâs books, and I was so excited to see them release a devotional for the first time this spring! âShine Bright: 60 Days to Becoming a Girl Defined by Godâ is a beautiful little hardcover from BakerBooks, and more importantly, the inside is packed with 60 daily doses of hope, reflection, and guidance for getting into Godâs word.

Authors of Biblical Fiction have a beautiful ability to bring well-known stories and characters to life in ways that expand our imaginations, and perhaps cause us to look at a portion of the Bible (that we may have read a hundred times before) in a new and exciting way.

Another Fantastic Non-Prophet Book from Todd Hampson
If you are like me, youâve always considered the last book of the Bible to be confusing, strange, and not really applicable to people living today. A new book from Harvest House Publishers, however, completely debunks each of these myths and helps us understand the book of Revelation as the fascinating and relevant message to humanity that it is. âThe Non-Prophetâs Guide to the Book of Revelation: Bible Prophecy for Everyoneâ is a user-friendly book that is carefully researched and backed by facts, and is packed with entertaining graphics and helpful visuals such as timelines and charts. If you are ready to begin uncovering what God is telling us in the words of Revelation, this book will set you off to a great start! Continue reading
Simply a Sweet Historical Romance
Last summer I was blown away by the storytelling abilities of debut author Rachel Fordham, as her book âThe Hope of Azure Springsâ was a delightful historical romance that captivated me from the first page. This summer her second novel was released from Revell, and is just as sweet and memorable as the first. Continuing in the setting of Azure Springs, âYours Truly, Thomasâ introduces new protagonists while continuing the stories of all the secondary characters we grew to love in the last book.

One of the Most Memorable Novels of 2019
I just finished one of the most beautiful, memorable, and breathtaking books Iâve read yet this year (and Iâve read some pretty great books so far in 2019!). Rachel Hauckâs âThe Memory Houseâ was published by Thomas Nelson this past spring, and I simply didnât want this enthralling saga to end. The vivid characters, the sweeping plot, the heart-wrenching themes, the two different time periods combining into one beautifully tangled tale of love and loss and forgiveness. . . It was captivating, to say the least! Continue reading
Come Along For Another Memorable Visit To Hope Harbor!
Whenever I finish reading the latest (and always much-anticipated) âHope Harborâ novel, I close the book feeling refreshed. . . As though I just spent a vacation in a favorite place, a place where you know everybodyâs story, and where the words âCome home to Hope Harbor – Where hearts heal . . . and love bloomsâ ring so true. Irene Hannonâs newest installment of the beloved âHope Harborâ series (now numbering at five, and with more to come!!) is entitled âDriftwood Bayâ. This sweet novel of healing and new beginnings tells an original tale with all new characters, though cameo appearances by many of our old friends are regular occurrences, too. Continue reading
