  • Fearless

    Fearless (Reviewed 9/9/2009)

    Max Lucado’s latest book, Fearless was released today. Certainly it is a timely topic as each day in 2009 seems to give us more to be fearful about and fewer reasons to be fearless! I usually have a book with me so I won’t be caught having to wait with nothing to do, consequently I often read ...

  • The American Patriot's Bible

    The American Patriot's Bible (Reviewed 7/22/2009)

    I wish we had had the American Patriot’s Bible to use as a devotional tool when our children were growing up. As Americans our children should know that our founding fathers believed, “It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.” That quote attributed to George Washington ...

  • The Read & Share DVD Bible - Volume 1

    The Read & Share DVD Bible - Volume 1 (Reviewed 5/7/2009)

    Young children don’t sit for long, but they usually can sit for the 3 minute animated bible stories on this DVD. I loved the music that didn’t dominate the story, but warmly set the backdrop for a Bible time atmosphere. Children need to know that biblical creation was in a different time and ...

  • The Noticer

    The Noticer (Reviewed 4/27/2009)

    It must be true. I wanted this story to be true. Aren’t all allegories based on truth! Yes, it is actually based on the remarkable true story of the author, Andy Andrews. The Noticer is one of those books you would like to give all your friends and those who aren’t because it gives hope. The ...

  • Rachel's Tears

    Rachel's Tears (Reviewed 3/16/2009)

    How did Rachel Scott know she was going to die on April 20, 1999? There is no way she could have predicted her tragic death, but the evidence left in her journals tells us somehow, she knew. In one of many similar entries she says, “This will be my last year Lord. I have gotten what I can. Thank ...

  • Same Kind of Different As Me

    Same Kind of Different As Me (Reviewed 2/18/2009)

    I don’t remember the last time I read a book, that grabbed my attention from the very beginning and didn’t let me go until I finished it several hours later at 2:30 in the morning. Thomas Nelson Publishers sent the book for review as an email attachment so I sat for those hours at my computer spellbound ...

  • Kiss

    Kiss (Reviewed 2/18/2009)

    This is Dekker’s best mystery yet, in my opinion of course! Webs of deceit seemed to have no end in this thriller. Shauna was a victim from the moment of her mother’s untimely death shortly following the birth of Rudy. She was victimized by the hands of her stepmother, her father, the driver who ...

  • House of Dark Shadows

    House of Dark Shadows (Reviewed 1/13/2009)

    The drama created in House of Dark Shadows, a spine-tingling young adult thriller, is everyone’s worst nightmare. I couldn’t put it down and I’m not a “young” adult. It kind of hits home if you’ve ever moved to a new house, a new school and /or job, in a new town thinking that the excitement ...

  • Moon Shines Down

    Moon Shines Down (Reviewed 1/12/2009)

    A child can travel the world in The Moon Shines Down. Based on the New England sampler prayer, “God Bless the Moon and God Bless Me” the koala sees the moon and prays in a different part of the world on each page. On each vibrantly, colorfully illustrated page the same moon looks down on the Dutch ...

  • Billy

    Billy (Reviewed 11/13/2008)

    I was intrigued to read the book, Billy as I couldn’t imagine what the "untold story could be"--what more could be told about Billy Graham? After all, much has been written about the most renowned evangelist of our time. Billy is so well written, like a novel, rather than a typical biographical sketch, ...
