Some of my faves....

I know I said I was disappearing, but I just wanted to share some books that the Lord has been using to change my life and my faith. I'd LOVE to know if you read them!

"Breaking the Rules - trading performance for intimacy with God" by Fil Anderson

"Life of the Beloved" by Henri Nouwen

"Turn my Mourning into Dancing" by Henri Nouwen

"Prodigal God" by Tim Keller

and of course lots of time in the word.....I've taken FB and Twitter off my phone so that I can pull up my Bible in all of my downtime. MAN, this has changed the time I spend in the word! I have fallen in love with His word all over again....especially reading the Psalms at the same time as 1 & 2 Samuel so you can read David's life and his heart at the same time. Wow.

I'm starting "Sacred Romance" and "Evolving in Monkey Town" as well as "What Good is God?" and "1000 gifts"....

Can't wait to start reading the books I have ordered! Also finishing up "Why Godly People do Ungodly Things" - B. Moore

"Sacred Romance" needs to also get on my list soon.

Love you!

Good to see you blogging again. Are you ever going to fill us in on what's been going on? Or is it not meant for cyberspace?
Hope you're doing well friend!
