2. The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark Comer

.

This book was a breath of fresh air for my soul! It reminded me to slow down and live with intention.

The authors words and methods were simple and life-giving. He doesn’t give you more to do, but plows the path towards less. He shows the reader how to ENJOY this ONE life we’ve been given.

“Through life-giving practices, grounded in the life of Jesus, we gain access to life power beyond our own.” – John Mark Comer

3. Benjamin Franklin by Janet Benge

Benjamin Franklin was a fascinating man with so much creativity and wisdom. I loved learning about his life and adventures (and antics)! I had no idea that so many things we use today were thought up by HIM. I loved this story – it would make a great book to read to kids ages 8 and up!

  • I just read The Women and highly recommend it. It’s the story of nurses in Viet Nam during the war. Very little has been written about women in the Viet Nam war and this book does a wonderful job. I laughed, I cried. It was one of those very few books that I didn’t want to end.
