I recently completed this book. It has risen to the top of my favorite list. When telling my Mom and sister about this book I started crying. I had no idea it had had that much of an impact on me. I know this for sure: God cares about the prodigals. And He cares about those who are waiting for them to come home.
A Classic! A tale of redemption and sacrifice. And really, who can’t love a guy who can write sentences like Mr. Dickens?
History! War! Secret Spy Stuff! AND forgiveness! Andy Andrews, the author, has said this is his favorite book he has written. I concur!
I first read this book years ago. I loved it so much I shared it with my husband. The principles and wisdom imparted by a gentleman called Jones are priceless.
This book made quite the impact on both my husband and me. We even adapted lessons from the book and it’s sequel for our young adult bible study. It solidified within us decision making skills and shifted perspectives on so many levels that we couldn’t keep it to ourselves. This is a book to share. I’ve encouraged friends and family (especially my young adult kids) to read this book. Mr. Andrews brings wisdom into our lives through his words.
Don’t forget the sequel! This is my husbands absolute favorite book of all time. And Mr. Andrews is his favorite author.
I’m a huge fan of historical fiction. This one just happens to be my fav!
Okay. So, this one is completely frivolous; but, we listened to this book on a family vacation. My kids didn’t even want to get out of the car to eat. They just wanted to stay in the car. To say this book is riveting would not be an understatement!
Yes. I know. I wrote this one. So, I’m prejudiced. But the cover art by Dawn Estella still amazes me. The process of writing this book forever changed me. I am not the person I was when I began writing this book. My hope is that others are healed as they read these words. We were created to FLY!
Marriage takes work. I read this book at a time in my life when the theme resonated with me.
I Am His
The song of my heart this morning was written in 1875 by Fanny Crosby and based on Hebrews 10:19-23 19Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, 20by the new and living way opened for us through the curtain of His body, 21and since we have a great priest…
Hope is a River
Hope is not a pond, stagnant, a mere watering hole for livestock. Hope is a river, undammed to run free, at times gentle and reposed, at others raging and fierce. There are those who will attempt to control the river, but the river always finds a way, cutting a path of intention. Hope teems with…
Remember
This weekend my husband texted me from work letting me know we didn’t have to have dinner rolls for Easter just because it was traditional. Unless I just wanted them. I could have said, “I love rolls. I want to have them for Easter.” But no. I’m wordy and responded with an essay on the…
