The Beginner's Gospel Story Bible {A Book}

-

With Talitha growing more and more in her understanding of what we say and do, I have been looking for a good children's Story "Bible" read to her.  (I say "Bible" because these books are not literally what we would believe to be the inspired Word of God but rather illustrated books with the main stories of the Bible written for children.)    While I have not come across bad illustrated children's Bibles, there are, admittedly, some that are better than others. Gospel-centric children's Bibles, such as the Jesus Story Book Bible , that strive to focus on the Gospel-themes as portrayed throughout Scripture, are popular these days and are some of the best options out there!  However, I have had a hard time deciding which one I wanted to buy.    And then I read a review for The Beginner's Gospel Story Bible, by Jared Kennedy, published by New Growth Press in 2017. After about 5 minutes of "looking inside it" on Amazon, ...

So Blogging for God's Glory in a Clickbait World is all I've got to show for 2020. (I did start a handful of other books--maybe 3?--but I have yet to finish them.) Anyways...let's leave the past in the past and move on. Blogging for God's Glory was a good re...

6 Strategies to Help You Get Back Into Reading

Roughly a year ago I decided to start reading again, after having pretty much abandoned all books after college. Getting back into reading has been one of the most encouraging and profitable habits that I've ever cultivated!   Perhaps you're wondering what happened in my brain for me to, practically overnight, go from reading no books to reading multiple books at the same time. I wrote about that awhile back.  Perhaps you're wishing you could also get back into reading and actually finishing a book. Over the past year, I've unintentionally discovered some strategies that have been helpful in cultivating a reading habit. Maybe some of these strategies will resonate with you.   1.  Make it enjoyable By enjoyable, I mean fun and light. In an effort to get back into reading, make those first few books that you read be books that have a story line that you know will be easy to follow and enjoy, right then and there.  For me, my initial fun ...
