From the very first page, I absolutely fell in love with this brand new novel by Marilyn T. Parker. I'll be honest - biblical fiction isn't my favorite genre, but the author immediately transported me to the world of ancient Israel to witness the bit

I've just started to read Wilber's book: Religion of tomorrow

 This is a book of 2017- not sure how I missed it. Back around 1988, I had discussions with two ministers, from different traditions, researching biblical works in the East; they both said

My Literary Ladies group read For Such a Time last month and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a retelling of the story of Esther, but set in a Concentration Camp in WWII. When I first read about it I was puzzled and just wanted to know how she wou

I am currently reading Red Scarf Girl: A Memoir of the Cultural Revolution by Ji-Li Jiang. The audience is middle-grade, but the subject matter and story can be meaningful for adults as well. I'm the type of perso

I am hooked on Patricia Bradley books! I just finished the 3rd book in the Logan Point series and can't wait to get the last one!  This is the first book in this series. Check her out, she's a Mississippi author too!!

I'm currently reading The Politically Homeless Christian: How to Conquer Political Idolatry, Reject Polarization, and Recommit to God's Greatest Two Commandments by Aaron Schafer.

The work has many good ideas in dealing with the other side, whichever

I just finished reading Keeley Brooke Keith's  "Uncharted Beginnnings" and "Uncharted" series. These are all available in large print whic is a plus for us since we have many readers who need large print. The books are about people who left the US i

Our team is currently hooked on Charles Martin books. Just about all of us have now read his Murphy Shepherd series. We are thinking through a strategy to encourage all parents to read these two books. The story truly ramps up awareness of what is cu

The book's title is Saving Eric by Joan Deneve. It was written by a sweet lady that teaches at a private christian school in Millbrook, Al. about 15 min. from my home. It may not have changed my life personally but it is the first book I recommend to

This is science fiction by CS Lewis. I'm enjoying it right now because I'm fairly new at running the church library and I've decided I need to get smart on the classics first. (Side bar: has anyone NOT read the Narnia books?)

This beautiful prayer is from a book I'm reading called, "Shiloh Autumn," by

My Labor Day weekend reading will be "The End Times Survival Guide," by Mark Hitchcock, which was published in 2018.  This is not a prediction book.  It talks about ten biblical strategies for faith and hope in these uncertain days.  Staying strong i
