The latest book I've read that spoke to my heart about a lot of things is called Created to be his Help Meet by Debi Pearl. Very challenging!!!

Have any of you read a book lately that has been very thought provoking in a helpful way?

Yes, I know you've been reading your Bibles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rolleyes:

The last two books I read are Does Your Tongue Need Healing, by Derek Prince, and 30 Days to Tame Your Tongue, by Deborah Pegues. Very small books, but very helpful.

I've ordered "For Men Only" and "For Women Only" by Shanti and Jeff Feldhan. I'm REALLY looking forward to reading them, so I'll let you know how that goes once I do (they should arrive tomorrow or Tuesday!)

There are a few I could probably add, but for now, I'm currently reading Beautiful if God's Eyes, The Treasure of the Proverbs 31 Woman, by Elizabeth George. An entire chapter is devoted to each verse and it has really been speaking to my heart. It's very practical in it application and I know will be one of those books that really helps me to grow as a woman.

Someone put ("Sermond on the mound" by Michael O' Connor) a small, easy reading book in my hands the other day, it was funny with some good serious points in it. However on pg. #44:

"He took Saul-an angry, despicable murderer on the road to Damascus-broke him, humbled him, and molded him into a man named Paul, friend and apostle to Jesus, lover and preacher of the word."

Which I disagree with, and encourage anyone to read: Acts 22.20; saying something diffrent in my bible. Other than that, it's a good baseball book and I liked it.

We love to read around here and every once in awhile I enjoy a light read to relax by.

Have you ever heard of Jan Karon.. she rocks my world with her fictitous tale of an Episcopalian priest in The Mitford Series. They are worth the expense. I have the entire collection almost. These are so entirely homespun without the harlequin romance garbage thrown in..

Have you read The Shack? I started to.. then.. well, it's a long story but I currently bought another copy, lol.

Many wonderful teaching books out there, we glean so much from them at this house.

I have not heard of this author. I'll have to check her out some time. Maybe my church library has it. I love our church library. Awesome thing. We live in a small town, so our Christian section at the library isn't too big. I want to get the book His Brain, Her Brain. Can't remember the author's name right now, but I heard him and his wife on the radio and the book sounded really good. No, I haven't read Shack either. Thanks for your input. Good stuff. :thumbsup:

What is it that you are looking for dear sister?

A friend in Him.

I'm not looking for anything special. Just wanted to see if there were any books you all have read and found really good.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
