Green (Reviewed 11/9/2009)The Circle Trilogy was my introduction to Ted Dekker’s work. I have since read almost all of his writing, and have even been afforded the privilege of meeting him at a book signing earlier this year. That said, Green was a book I greatly anticipated. I was immediately drawn in, and having read the ...

The Rivers Run Dry (Reviewed 4/19/2009)“The day was bright, with clouds high and distant as wisps, and I decided the best way to deal with weather in the Northwest was to remember mood swings of a manic depressive.” (p. 87)Sibella Giorello’s name is as exotic as her writing style. The word-pictures she paints in a reader’s mind are ...

In the Footsteps of Paul (Reviewed 3/27/2009)I think it is impossible to truly capture the essence of the apostle Paul’s life in its fullness. God did such a miraculous transformation in this man’s life, and his sacrificial missionary existence the rest of his days testify to God’s strength, His wisdom, His unending grace in the lives of ...

Rachel's Tears (Reviewed 2/27/2009)
As a mother, this book is very difficult to read. My heart aches for Rachel’s parents. To read their account of that day at Columbine when so many were shot down in cold blood was so painful…so raw. I cannot imagine the terror – the hopelessness of seeing that last busload of children coming to ...

The Word of Promise The Gift of Psalms (Reviewed 1/22/2009)
The Gift of Psalms is the latest release in The Word of Promise audio series. I have to say, I was unfamiliar with this concept until I read a very touching review about it on my friend Deena’s blog. Now, having experienced this audio version of God’s word for myself, I must say it is very beautifully ...

Rex (Reviewed 1/9/2009)
Today I have experienced a bit of sensory overload. I've been reading about a delightful young man named Rex. More specifically, I've been reading the book his mother, Cathleen Lewis wrote about her journey into the world of an autistic musical savant. Her book, Rex, is both profound and beautiful. ...

Once again, God has sent a reminder of His promises for such a time as this! This ...

The Unseen (Reviewed 12/22/2008)
I'm going to state my honest opinion about this book - I didn't particularly like it, and I certainly didn't understand the point of this story. I could reach far into my imagination and my literary background and surmise that the author thinks that what is seen by others is the "insatiable hunger to ...

Boomtown (Reviewed 12/3/2008)
Boomtown is probably one of the most cleverly entertaining books I have ever read!! The author’s name alone should give you a hint that things are going to be fun and unexpected.
