Once upon a post I wrote about resolutions and inspiring book reading.
Today I thought I would post a follow-up in hopes of re-igniting that
inspiration in me (and maybe you, too).
As I looked through the books I have on some shelves in our "classroom".
-which is a bonus room and
save the closet which is stock-full of crafting supplies and the unfortunate
position the right wall holds as "run over storage space".-
I realized that there are a TON of great books out there and I am very
fortunate to have so many at my fingertips. Maybe you are too, let's dive
deeper into some, shall we?
I decided which books I felt would most greatly impact my family, my love
of God, and myself and went from there.
I also chose two books that I previously read and am eager to read again,
(Blue Like Jazz and Hinds Feet on High Places) as well as a daily devotional
(Quiet Moments with God for Mothers) and a writing challenge for myself,
(A Mother's Legacy:Your life story in your own words).
Here is my pile:
please let me know. It could be fun to read them together like a book club, or
to talk about at some point.
BOOK LIST:
*Praying Circles Around Your Children, Mark Batterson
*Hinds Feet On High Places, Hannah Hurnard
*Mountains of Spices, Hannah Hurnard
*Captivating: Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman's Soul, John and Stasi Elderedge
*The Power of a Praying Wife, Stormie Omartian
*Quiet Moments with God for Mothers, Honor Books
*A Mother's Legacy:Your life story in your own words, Gift Books from Hallmark
*When Infertility Books are not Enough: Embracing Hope During Infertility, Betsy Herman
*Blue Like Jazz, Donald Miller**

-two down, six(ish) to go, gomommyblogger
**p.s. Donald Miller is one of my favorite authors! If you have not already read some of his amazing writings (think, I-cannot-possibly-put-this-book-down; he-writes-at-the-speed-of-my-thought-process; his-writing-is-incredibly-engaging-and-entertaining), than may I recommend that you start here as well? Blue Like Jazz (which was turned into a movie- if you prefer to watch) is such great reading material!
