Book Review: Close Enough to Hear God Breathe


Close Enough to Hear God Breathe, by Greg Paul

The Great Story of Divine Intimacy. Greg Paul shows readers that God has a powerful message for us all regardless of where we are in our life. God thinks of us as His children through all our blunders, faults and mistakes. He gently guides us and loves us regardless of what we've done. God's Grace is alive and freely given.

This book is filled with biblical stories weaved into the present. A delight for most who enjoy this type of writing style. A blessing for all.

Start Something That Matters


I was honored to serve at the Catalyst Conference last week as a volunteer and met so many amazing people. The God Stories I took away are numerous and I have been in constant prayer ever since.

So many people that attended and spoke are so obedient and follow God's word with no fear or hesitation. They were an inspiration to me.

Blake Mycoskie, the founder of Tom's Shoes, wrote a book called "Start Something That Matters" and talked about his story at the conference.

My question is: What does God have planned for me? What does God plan for you?

I am hoping that Tom's Shoes will pick me as a candidate for Books for Bloggers. I would be honored to spread Blake's message!

Book Review: J.R.R. Tolkien

J.R.R. Tolkien

By Mark Horne

I chose this book because I enjoy reading biographies of famous people and find it fascinating to read about what life was like years ago. It is somewhat like stepping through a time capsule and coming out on the other side to an entirely different world.

This book was a quick read and I especially found Tolkien’s childhood very interesting. His mother was a very strong woman. I don’t think other single mothers in that day were quite as creative when it came to providing for the family. She sacrificed it all for her children and made sure they received what they needed.

For those who have read Tolkien’s books or watched the movies made after his books, I highly recommend that they read this biography. It will give some insight on his character and imagination.

Book Review: Your 100 Day Prayer


Lord, teach us to pray. — Luke 11:1

I was so excited to receive this book as a paperback so I could journal and write in it every day. What a blessing this book is!

What's inside: Before you even start the book, there is a place to record your start date and prayer request along with a prayer to begin your 100 day journey. Every day has a bible verse, short story, prayer and a place to list your progress. It only takes a few minutes a day but makes all the difference in the world.

This book could not have come to me at a better time. I am in a transitional stage both with my career and my physical state. I will spend the next 100 days praying over my goals and wishes.

I am excited about this book and will use it as a tool to catapult my new life.
