Bible Bells' Adventure of Rooney Cruz is an awesome children's series on 5  superhero women from the Bible. They are action packed and full of lots of bright captivating pictures. The book I got to review as about Esther and is one of the best kid versions I've read or heard. 

I hope to get all of them for our girls when they get old enough because they make the story come alive and lots of fun! If you have girls I would highly recommend them. Girls need superheros too. :) 

You can check out their website HERE . It has all kinds of good stuff!

Children of God CD Review

  

   If you are a huge Phil Whickham fan you will love this new Cd. While it is not personally my favorite style ~ it makes good house cleaning music. I like it in the background when I'm doing something that I'm not going to be focused on the lyrics but want some motivational music. :)  

     There were a few favorites of of the CD for me and they include, Children of God, Doxology, and Spirit of God. This album was made right after Phil had vocal surgery and healed in an amazingly fast manner!

 What an outstanding book! It is packed full of wonderful truths and guidance. If you are a fan of this author's book, Love and Respect, this book is no let down for sure! You feel like with every page you turn you learn something new or see a new few of the “Mother & Son” respect affect.

I particularly loved the G.U.I.D.E.S. acronym the author gives in one of the first chapters in the book. It really spoke to me and is easy to remember. I am sure I will be rereading this book many times in the years to come as my son transitions through the different stages of growing up!

~ Guest Post By My Husband, Michael Evans!~


“Hey Dude, Wise Up!” I've heard that phrase many times from my older two brothers all my life. They always found the most opportunistic times to “give me words of wisdom”. Like when that girl broke up with me and left be heartbroken but still convinced that she was “the one”. Another time when I misspoke during a family holiday and made my one and only sister mad. During those times I did not understand what my older brothers were trying to do or say. I was blind to the fact they they had been there and done that. If I had any sense in my head I would perk my ears up and glean from their experience and words of wisdom.

This is exactly what this book is about. Kent Evans does an amazing job at getting the message across that we as men need to swallow our pride, and even sometimes arrogance, shut our mouth, open our ears and listen to the wisdom from the men who have been there and done that. Wise Guys is a much needed book for men from young to old. We men need each other even though at times that is hard to admit. It is so easy to be independent and think that we know it all. Kent Evans hits the sweet spot that I believe men in the church need to hear. So guys, listen up and unlock the hidden wisdom from the men around you.

8 Simple Tools for Raising Great Kids


What a great book stuffed full of awesome parenting tips. It is nothing profound or probably anything you haven't already heard but it is a fresh view of the basics! I personally found the second  half of the  book more challenging and enlightening than the first. I think maybe that is because the tools addressed in that part of the book are the ones I need to work on the most as a parent. 


Each of the chapters are SHORT! You can read one literally in just a couple of minutes. This is wonderful for busy parents. Each one has it's own thoughts so it is not necessary to read several to get the complete thought.



This book would be great in your library to use as a quick reference when you needed a fresh outlook on a parenting problem or just wanted a quick "refresher course" to put things in perspective. You can purchase a copy for yourself over at

ESV Men's Devotional Bible Review

My sweet husband is doing a guest blog post for me! Enjoy. :)


    First of all I was not sure what to expect when my wife approached me about doing a review for the ESV Men's Devotional Bible. So my first question was what is the ESV Men's Devotional Bible? Well guess what....it's a Bible! But it is so much more than just a Bible. When I received my copy in the mail the first thing I noticed was how classy the outside cover looked. As I opened its pages I was instantly drawn to a passage of Scripture in Luke chapter 2 where it was talking about the birth of Jesus. As I read that passage, I then noticed that on the opposite side of the page was a devotional titled Unexpected Revolution by Jared C. Wilson. As I read that devotional, my heart was challenged to find joy even in unexpected circumstances.


The ESV Men's Devotional Bible is full of great devotionals and incredible insight from great men such as Sam Storms, Tom Nelson, and J.J Seid just to name a few. The Articles and Resources in the back is an amazing resource and easy to navigate. I would highly recommend the ESV Men's Devotional Bible to any man who desires to grow in Christ. So guys if your looking for a great devotional Bible with easy to access articles that range from leadership, joy, your calling, or even the local church, this is the devotional Bible for you!

The 5 Love Languages for Men

    “When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie…That's amore....” Love and pizza, well to be honest that sounds pretty good to me! Speaking of love and pizza, go ahead... order your favorite kind of pizza, sit back, and read this book with your wife. Once you start reading you will not be able to put this book down!

      The 5 Love Languages for Men, is an incredible guide to really understanding how to love your wife. From the front cover, to the last page, this book is an exciting and easy to understand guide about how to love your spouse the way that they “understand”. Dr. Chapman breaks down each love language separately and helps the reader comprehend that with a little effort and knowledge any marriage is able to thrive if both spouses learn how to recognize, understand, and communicate each others love language.

     I would highly recommend this book to everyone! If you’re frustrated with feeling like you and your spouse are on separate pages and are speaking a different dialect, then read this book and learn how to speak the language of love to your spouse.
