Book Review: Family Prayer Made Easy

Praying with our children is a wonderful way to show the importance of this activity and of God in our lives. However, there are times where our lives become so busy that we can't wrap our heads and hearts around this special time. This book, Family Prayer Made Easy, can help with this.

Inside the cover is a commitment form for each member of the family to sign to show that each agree to pray together. Then each section begins with a family minute, including a short scripture. Then there is a true story from the author, some simple questions for the family and then a prayer, scriptures and promises. There are also optional activities that the family can work into this devotional time.

The different sections include Praying for a Happy Family, for Students, Schools, and Teachers, for Our World, Nation and Community, Serving God and them there are 100 more ideas for this time.

I think this is a wonderful book for any young family who is looking for a way to bring the family together during devotions, no matter the age of the children.

Devotional review: Love and Care for the One and Only You

This book first attracted me because of my health issues. Once I opened the cover I discovered this is so much more than a devotional. The sections include warm-up; cardio; strength training; and stretching. Then there is a section  with recipes.

Each of the 52 scripture-filled entry includes a reading, a power prayer, a healthy hint and a way to help the entry work with the reader's journey. This book is filled with devotions surround health and fitness, but not in a preachy, superior nature. More like an encourager who wants the reader to succeed on their journey

 I am going to be placing this book on my shelf to be looked at again, and again.

I received a copy of this book by Worthy Publishing in exchange for my honest review.

Book Review: Moms' Night Out and other things I miss

Moms' Night Out by Kerri Pomarolli is filled with devotions that help mothers see life from another perspective. Each day begins with a Bible verse followed by her on insight on the verse and how Pomarolli has found it relevant to a time, either through her children or from other parts, of her life. After this she has two reflections that leaves the reader finding importance in different parts of their own lives. Finally each devotion ends with a wonderful prayer.

Kerri Pomarolli has placed so much of her self into each entry and has made it very do-able for the reader to find the relevance in the little things. I loved sharing entries with my friends and family and I look forward to other works by this author.

I would recommend this to anyone who likes to look at the lighter side of life or needs uplifting. Thank you Kerri Pomarolli and B& H Books.
