The other side of the "sandwich generation"




As one who not only read but contributed to Allison Bottke's book on setting boundaries with our adult children, I'm pleased now to recommend her book on the "other side" of this difficult "sandwich generation"--a sandwich I've been in the middle of for many years! My children are grown now, with lives of their own, and Allison's book was so helpful to me during that long letting-go process. Now I'm dealing more with the aging parent portion of the equation, as my nearly 89-year-old mother lives with me and requires more and more of my time and energy with each passing day.

Thank the Lord for Allison's commitment to help the rest of us learn how to set healthy boundaries, whatever our situation! Setting Boundaries with Your Aging Parents, whether your parents live with you or not, is a must-have resource for anyone in our situation. I strongly recommend it and plan to dog-ear it as much as I did the previous book. To find out more about this dynamic lady and her books/ministry go to http://www.settingboundaries.com/. Blessings, dear readers!

Great new book at ridiculously low price!



Got a Kindle? NO??? Seriously, you really need to get one! I finally broke down and ordered mine (my hubby's birthday gift to me), and I'm blown away at how cheaply you can acquire great books for it.

And here's the perfect example of why you need a Kindle: Michelle Sutton's new book, Never Without Hope, is currently available as a Kindle download for $2.99! That's about as close to free as it gets, folks, so go to Amazon and download it before the offer ends.

Liberty's Promise will keep you reading for many wonderful hours!



I don't often have the luxury of reading three books in a row, but when someone as talented as author Amber Miller Stockton compiles a three-story series into one handy book, you just have to go for it!

After meeting a daunting deadline at the end of last month, I rewarded myself with some quiet time to read through Amber's stories, beginning with that of Raelene Strattford, and then moving on Elanna Hanssen and, finally Margret Scott. Though each woman's life and loves are unique, a common thread of faith ties them all together in this well written saga of a brand new country called America. If you like early American history and compelling stories, don't miss Liberty's Promise!

A question to consider...seriously




It isn't often that I come across such a humble man as author John Meacham--and such a powerful book as Is Your Church Heavenly? I am now privileged to have encountered both, and I want to share that privilege with you.

Is Your Church Heavenly? is an excellent study of Christ's seven letters to the seven churches in Revelation. Complete with scripture, in-depth teaching, and applicable questions, this timely book--along with its study guide, which can be purchased separately or together with the book--will challenge you to a deeper, more passionate relationship with the One who calls to the churches from a heart of unequaled and unconditional love.
