6/10/2023 0 Comments Echoes by Alice ReedsWhile I may not have a lot of male readers in my family, I’m thankful for each person in my family who pushed me to read. My mom is a huge reader and I got my stepmother back into reading when I was in high school. I still remember walking into her personal library for the first time and realized where my love of mysteries and the paranormal derived from. One of the books I mainly remember asking her to read me was a condensed younger children’s book version of The Wizard of Oz. She’d take me to the library to get the old Disney books on cassette to listen too. My Grandma B was the main one out of all three who got me started in the first place. Three of my grandmothers were huge readers when I grew up. I haven’t done one of these in a very long time….Let’s do this! Shout out to the wonderful Ashlee at My Bookish Life for creating this book tag and taking the time to come up it! Check out her blog and send her love!

There is no consensus list of spiritual disciplines. This verse is the cornerstone of the spiritual disciplines because it spells out their purpose-training for godliness. This is why Paul coaches Timothy: “train yourself for godliness for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come” (1 Tim 4:7-8). Just as the undisciplined body becomes sluggish and fat, the undisciplined spirit becomes weak. The sad reality is that many Christians are unfit because they are undisciplined. We know this is true for our physical condition, but there’s a disconnect with how we think about our spiritual condition. They follow strict diet and exercise regiments to beat their body into peak physical condition, so when the game is on the line, they are ready. The best athletes are intensely disciplined. Nobody can sit on the couch eating Cheetos for months and hope to compete. 6/10/2023 0 Comments Arlen the warded manThe pacing is much improved from the last couple of books, partially because it finally abandons the flashback structure which held back the previous novel, focusing much more on the here and now. Finally we follow Leesha and Rojer as they journey to Angiers to forge closer ties with Duke Rhinebeck to help them fend off the Kraisans to the south and the nightly terrors of the Core.Īs can often be the case with penultimate books, The Skull Throne strongly feels like it’s mostly about moving things into place for the finale, but based on where things are left off The Core is going to be a hell of a book. We probably spend most of our time with the Kraisans as Jardir’s sons begin to vie for the Skull Throne in the power vacuum left by their father, whilst Inevera manipulates from the shadows. The first, most exciting and unfortunately briefest follows Arlen and Jardir following their epic battle at the conclusion of The Daylight War. The Skull Throne follows three stories primarily. Some of these elements are still here, but overall The Skull Throne is a major improvement over it’s predecessor and does just what a penultimate book should gets you rabidly hyped for the finale. The last book, The Daylight War began to feel like a middle Wheel of Time book as the focus shifted from the central narrative of humanity facing a demon horde to a series of far less engaging subplots. The Demon Cycle is a cool, if flawed series, with a lot of stuff going for it. It is a gripping saga alive with astonishing characters: Henry Knox, the former bookseller with an uncanny understanding of artillery Nathanael Greene, the blue-eyed bumpkin who becomes a brilliant battle captain Benjamin Franklin, the self-made man who proves to be the wiliest of diplomats George Washington, the commander in chief who learns the difficult art of leadership when the war seems all but lost. From the battles at Lexington and Concord in spring 1775 to those at Trenton and Princeton in winter 1777, American militiamen and then the ragged Continental Army take on the world's most formidable fighting force. Now he turns his attention to a new war, and in the initial volume of the Revolution Trilogy he recounts the first twenty-one months of America's violent war for independence.

And it’s her foray into the natural world, which is so welcome right now. It steps back to examine the policing powers she has traditionally taken for granted. It’s unusually contemplative and visual, as if she literally needed this breath of fresh air. Where does The Searcher” stand in the lineup of French’s books? It’s an outlier: not her most accessible but not to be missed. As you read this scene, the sidelong glances and daggers in the small talk come flying off the page. This is why you read Tana French: for the nuances that go into an ambush like this, and for her ability to immerse you in the moment completely. Nobody beats French when it comes to writing pub scenes fraught with tension. They’re also ominous, given what we know about the close-knit, gossipy nature of the town. These scenes are keenly observed, with a strong sense of place, and unfailingly entertaining. One of this book’s many pleasures is French’s way of building Cal and Trey’s bond. there’s a lot at work in The Searcher, even if its story sounds simple. an audacious departure for this immensely talented author. She speaks from real-life experience of the personal and intellectual challenges we encounter today in considering the claims of Jesus Christ. “A deep and caring response to current criticisms and confrontations of the Christian faith fills Rebecca McLaughlin’s book. Williams , Principal, Tyndale House, Cambridge In this bombshell of a book packed with myth-busting statistics, McLaughlin reveals the many surprises in authentic Christianity.” “In the West, many people are persuaded by dominant secular narratives and think they already know what Christianity is about. Loeb and Frances Lehman Loeb Professor of Epidemiology, Harvard University Confronting Christianity is well worth reading and pondering.” “McLaughlin probes some of the trickiest cultural challenges to Christianity of our day and clearly demonstrates the breadth and richness of a Christian response. Lennox, Emeritus Professor of Mathematics, University of Oxford Readers will find themselves expertly guided on a journey that involves them not only in confronting Christianity but also in confronting themselves-their worldviews, hopes, fears, failures, and search for identity and satisfaction-and, finally, in confronting Christ as the altogether credible source of life as God means it to be.” “This book is compelling reading, not only because of its intellectual rigor and the fact that it is beautifully written but also because of its honest, empathetic humanity. |
