Story Bible

This thirty-two page board book targets four to eight year old but I really think a younger age would enjoy  more like three year olds!  I was not pleased with art work. I did not feel like they were very well drawn  but I did like back rounds and animals !

It was to be a gift for a three year old but now I will not pass it on because  her mother would not  like since they are very up on good art work having three artists in the family.

This volume was  Published - December 9, 2014 by  Zondervan Books. So this is a very new book!
Author - Diane Stortz. I would like to read more of what she has wwrittenbecause I can see she loves the Lord.
Title - The Sweetest Story Bible for Toddlers.  The front  was perfect. I would love to see a set of books like this for kids about character.
Format - hardcover (board book) Yes this is perfect  for young kids to drag around.
Find on Amazon where else would one look!

This is a new book that came out this year and cuaght my attention since I thought maybe my 8 year old sister could enjoy but I found it a little young for her since she has been reading since she was  about 6.  . Short stories and not very many different ones, mostly from the time of Jesus, I was looking for one about the old testament. All pages are sparkly and  a little too " fun."

This is sadly not a book I  would say to order.

The Mighty Weakness of John Knox by Douglas Bond

A very enjoyable book! It is helpful to see Knox as one who struggled with fear but was used in a mighty way for kingdom purposes. Douglas Bond summarizes the weakness of Knox; weakness that was ultimately used for God's glory. "Knox was transformed from weakness to might by God's power."Douglas Bond communicates well with young people, and this book is especially useful for young people seeking to make their lives count for the Lord.

Knox is a model for the ordinary Christian,especially the one who feels his own weakness but who nevertheless wants to serve Christ in a troubled world My siblings love this author so I know they will be delighted to read this volume!“The life of Knox, then, is not just for people who like shortbread and bagpipes, kilts and oatcakes. Neither is it just for Presbyterians or people whose names begin with Mac (or who wish they did). Knox is a model for the ordinary Christian, especially the one who feels his own weakness but who nevertheless wants to serve Christ in a troubled world. Knox is eminently relevant to all Christians who have ever been forced to come face to face with their own littleness” (xx).


well worth the read. Thank you Ligonier Ministries for a copy fo this book to read.

Shocking facts about the New Apostolic Reformation

These are two books by the same author. I got to review the  second book and was blown away by the truths in it! This book opened my eye to  NAR group.  Geivett and Pivec state that the main function of the NAR apostle is to govern the church. I was blown away by the shocking beliefs of a group that think their miracles  are greater then Jesus, have re written the Bible and  go on treasure hunts  with clues to find people to heal.

Geivett and Pivec also denounce NAR prophets because they go too far by speaking not only words that strengthen, encourage, and comfort Christians, but also prophecies that include the revelation of spiritual gifts and guidance for major life decision   

I learned these facts about  NAR

The New Apostolic Reformation

It is also the fastest growing segment, the only segment of Christianity currently growing faster than the world population and faster than Islam.The NAR represents the most radical change in the way of doing church since the Protestant Reformation

. Prophets are prominent in the Bible, both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament.  See what the Bible really says vs. the NAR group.Many people will not recognize this movement by its formal name -- the "New Apostolic Reformation" -- including even many of the movement's participants. This book will warn you to know when you see a person in this group.  The New Apostolic Reformation is made up of hundreds of churches and organizations that are led by apostles and prophets who share a distinct theology. Many of these churches and organizations have joined "apostolic networks." These apostolic networks are made up of, in some cases, hundreds of churches and organizations that submit to the leadership of a single apostle, such as Harvest International Ministry--a network of over 12,000 churches and organizations under NAR apostle Ché Ahn.

NAR leaders teach that God began restoring the office of prophet to the church in the 1980s and the office of apostle in the 1990s  For more information do read this book! I learned so much from it!!!!!!!!!!!

Purity

A Great blessing to me! I will pas it on to someone who can really use this book! It is encouraging that the author can address this problem with hope. well written and very engaging. One strength of Thorne’s work is that she carefully addresses the heart and not merely the outward behavior. When it comes to sexual sin or any other sin that is manifested outwardly, it is so easy to fixate on behavior modification. She points us to Christ.

Beautify written to touch the heart!
