Finished Reading: Beating Guns by Shane Claiborne & Michael Martin

Beating Guns is a collaborative book written by Shane Claiborne and Michael Martin. Mike attends our church here in Colorado Springs & founded [...]
Finished Reading | Taste and See by Margaret Feinberg
I am not a foodie. I do love to eat but I don’t make amazing yummy food for the eye and for the stomach. I do on occasion read cookbooks, weird I know but it’s oddly satisfying. Try it some time. In case we haven’t met before, I take book recommendations from IG friends and [...]
Finished Reading: I Think You’re Wrong (But I’m Listening) a guide to grace-filled political conversations
I am guilty of not talking politics with those that disagree with my perspective. Mostly because my opinion on government and politics differs wildly from the people I hold most dear, my family. I admit to blocking and unfollowing A LOT of people since the election, and if we are being honest since before the [...]
Finished Reading | Preach to Yourself by Hayley E. Morgan
Remember Wild & Free? When reading Wild & Free I felt empowered to my core, I read it with energy and gusto. It made me active and actively changed me. Preach to Yourself, is not quite the same. While Wild & Free felt youthful and energetic, Preach to Yourself is more like sitting down and [...]
Finished Reading: All the Colors We Will See by Patrice Gopo
First and foremost, I selected this book because I LOVE biographical essays and I love them even more than they are composed into a collection, a book all there own.

Confession time, as an avid reader I have not read The Time Quintet. Which includes L'Engle's most popular book, A Wrinkle in Time. I have read her nonfiction work Walking on Water, which I reviewed a while back. (I chuckle that the only book I've read by this famous fiction author is a piece of [...]

As a long time fan of Noonday Collection and a self-proclaimed Ethical Fashion Ambassador, this story provided me with encouragement and reminded me that no matter what my story should sound like, the real-life one is so [...]

Finished Reading: The Most Beautiful Thing I’ve Seen by Lisa Gungor
Can I be totally honest with you? I had no idea what to expect with this book by Lisa Gungor. I was scrolling Amazon and saw it had rave reviews, curiosity got the best of me and I received a copy. I love the music from Gungor, Beautiful Things has brought me through so many tough [...]
