Made to Move Mountains by Kristen Welch

Kristen Welch’s latest book, “Made to Move Mountains: How God Uses our Dreams And Disasters To Accomplish The Impossible” is so very timely. As we as a society face  the decision of what to do with our fear in this season of uncertainty, be encouraged as you read this book of hope and reminders of the character of God throughout the high and low times of life. A deeply personal look at her own dreams and disasters, Kristen shares with authenticity and a heavenly perspective how to take the next step. I loved this quote from the beginning of the book: “I pray you are inspired to step out in faith and climb the mountains in front of you—not because you are good enough or adequate or able, but because God makes a way where there seems to be no way. We stand on the edge of the cliffs of our lives, and although we are afraid of stepping into the unknown, terrified where we will land and unsure of how to overcome, we do not run away. We stand firm in the face of the impossible, muster up as much faith as we can—even as small as a mustard seed—and we take one step. We were made to move mountains.”

Each chapter is full of pages you will want to mark up and dog-ear. Each chapter has space to journal and questions to prompt heart work. I loved this book and highly recommend it to anyone going through a faith shaking time, wondering if now is the time to pursue a dream, or just wanting an encouragement in who God is. As you read, you will be reminded there is a beautiful peace that comes with the knowledge and trust that the mountains in your life are put there for a purpose to grow your faith.

I received this book for free from the publisher. My opinions are my own.

The Postage Stamp Vegetable Garden

The Postage Stamp Vegetable Garden is a must read for new gardeners! My four year old son and I have been wanting to start a garden and when I saw this book up for review on Blogging for Books I just knew I had to get it. And it did not disappoint! I learned everything I need to know to plant an awesome vegetable garden. The book is chock full of great advice and information including garden maps and a list of every vegetable with information on how to best grow each variety. The author gives great advice on soils, compost, where to plant, how to plant, and when to harvest. I can't recommend this book enough! Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy. I will have it with me year-round as I am growing my first crop of veggies. I received this book for free from Blogging For Books. These opinions are my own. 

The Christian Parenting Handbook

I've been reading The Christian Parenting Handbook and it's great! Dr. Scott Turansky and Joanne Miller wrote the book and say you will learn how to:  Identify character qualities to address problems Build internal motivation Use creativity to teach your kids spiritual truths I love the way the book is set up with 50 short chapters on different parenting tips, common problems, and biblical truths. It's perfect to pick up and read whenever you have a free second. They offer real, practical, and biblical advice. I really appreciated the way the authors gave concrete examples and how to  implement them into your family.  One of my favorite chapters is titled "Don't Practice In The Grocery Store-That's The Final Exam." It's all about what to do when your child acts out in public. They wisely suggest that you, "practice in the kitchen, bedroom, laundry room, and backyard. Children need to learn how to handle disappointment at home so they can accept a
