MY REVIEW
  When Calls the Heart-Heart and Home is one of the best episodes of this series. I really, really enjoyed it.
  Tom (Jack’s brother) and Julie (Elizabeth’s sister) get into a car accident. So both Jack and Elizabeth go back to Hamilton. Hard feelings and hurt feelings come between are four of these people. Each blaming the other for what happened.
  Them Tom and Julie decide to run off together which causes more problems. Also Elizabeth’s dad offers Jack a job so he will be good enough for his daughter, which doesn’t sit well at all.
  On top of all of that Elizabeth tells Charles she only wants his friendship, but Charles won’t let it go.
   You can just imagine  all of the drama and things that could happen with these things going on. Love, love, love this second season of When Calls the Heart. Highly recommend this for everyone who loves action, adventure, faith and love.

Where I Am by Billy Graham A Review

While his earthly vision dims, the glory of heaven is illuminated as Billy Graham, the beloved evangelist, shares from his past, and his present, the reality of eternity.

Although Billy Graham may no longer preach from the stadiums of the world, in this book you will sense his heart still beats strong with the resounding assurance that he will spend eternity with Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. In Where I Am, Mr. Graham invites and strongly encourages all of us to contemplate our eternal hope.

When asked, “Where is Heaven?” Mr. Graham has wisely replied, “Heaven is where Jesus Christ is, and I'm going to Him soon.”

The greatest promise ever given to the human race came from the lips of our Redeemer when Jesus said, “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me...I go to prepare a place for you...I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also” (John 14:1–3). Just after his ninety-fifth birthday, Mr. Graham proclaimed with resolve, “When I die, tell others that I've gone to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ—that's where I am.”

Flap Copy:

As our nation and world travail in the midst of political, economic, and cultural uncertainties, we can find comfort in the hope that comes from the unchanging truth of God's Word. Whether talking with a US president, a world leader, or the common man or being interviewed on network television, Billy Graham has always begun his answers with “The Bible says…”

In Where I Am, Mr. Graham shares what the Bible has to say about eternity from all of its sixty-six books; messages of truth, warning, love, and the certainty of the future, all gleaned by a man who would like to be remembered solely as a preacher of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Each short chapter examines the reality that each of us chooses where to spend life after death: Heaven or Hell. From the Old Testament writer who composed “Show me Your ways, O Lord” (Psalm 25:4) to the New Testament writer who penned the words of Jesus, “Whoever believes in [Me] should not perish” (John 3:16), there is hope for anyone who puts his or her faith and trust in the One who gives us the promise, “Where I am, there you may be also” (14:3).

BILLY GRAHAM, world-renowned preacher, evangelist, and author, has delivered the Gospel message to more people face-to-face than anyone in history and has ministered on every continent of the world, in more than 185 countries. Millions have read his inspirational classics, including Angels, Peace with God, The Holy Spirit, Hope for the Troubled Heart, How to Be Born Again, The Journey, Nearing Home, and The Reason for My Hope: Salvation.

MY REVIEW
  Where I Am by Billy Graham is an awe-inspiring book. Rev. Graham is in his Nineties, but very alert and his mind is still as sharp as ever. In this wonderful book Billy Graham goes through every book in the Bible, all sixty-six of them and points out truths, warnings and hope for us to grab unto in a ever changing world.
  One quote from his book Where I Am, that I love is this. Talking about Jesus, “This penniless preacher has invited the whole world to His coronation. Have you accepted the engraved invitation from the Heavenly palace, sealed with His royal emblem-thee distinguishing mark of His royal blood?”
  Billy talks about how much he is looking forward to going home to Heaven. It just makes you look forward to going home yourself.
The book talks about how God is a God of love, but also of justice and mercy. He loves us, but won’t put up with our sin. Also how even the vilest person God wants them to come to Him.
  In Where I Am, Billy Graham tells us that Hell wasn’t made for humans, but for the devil and his followers, but those who don’t accept Jesus will go there. It’s a very sad and sobering thought that people will go to hell.
  This book is full of so much truth and insight that you need to read it. I very highly recommend it. Thank you Rev. Billy Graham.

MY REVIEW
  Adrenaline is an awesome movie. The actors are Gregory Alan Williams, Charlene Amoia, Michael Rosander, John Schneider. It shows you what will and determination will do for someone.
  Joseph is in a car accident after a street race and loses the  use of his legs.  When he is in the hospital he rooms with Elijah and finds out that just because something bad happens it doesn’t mean your life is over. Elijah helps him through many rough and impossible things in his life.
     When Joseph goes back home he and his Uncle Paul talk and things start moving forward from there.  Joseph wants to get back into racing, but how can a man who can’t use his legs race?
  Joseph meets a fantastic therpist who helps him in many ways and they fall in love. Joseph also goes back to the hospital to visit Elijah many times and Elijah always has words of wisdom for him and it always makes him think.
  Just when things are going so well in many parts of his life Jason shows up in the races. Jason is the one Joseph is racing when he gets in the horrible accident. It keeps bugging Joseph to race Jason. He can’t get it out of his mind. Also Joseph keeps having a dream about his dad that died when he was young. See how all of this fits together and see what Joseph finally decides to do.
  Highly recommended DVD for friends and family. Very good family friendly movie. If you love the racing life and even if you don’t you will love this movie.

MY REVIEW
Amazing cookbook that I find very interesting. The different chapters include Peppercorn, Chili, Cinnamon, Nutmeg so on. Every Spice you can think of.
In each chapter there are over ten recipes. You won’t believe all of the different recipes you can have from spices.
At each chapter you will find out how different spices were discovered, where they come from like the bark of a tree, seeds or leaves.
Many Baking tips, equipment and ingredients for you to read about and use. A very handy cookbook, but very different. Very good ideas and the recipes will make you a hit at any gathering or party.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
As director of pastoral care at the Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Philadelphia, Dr. Michael S. Barry specializes in the connection between spirituality and health, particularly as it relates to cancer. Dr. Barry earned his bachelor of arts at the University of Texas at Austin, master of divinity from Princeton Theological Seminary, and doctor of ministry at Fuller Theological Seminary.

MY REVIEW
  A Reason for Hope by Dr. Michael S. Barry is an exceptional book. In his book he tells us that many things contribute to cancer and how he shares with us the different things that need to be done if you have cancer.
Dr. Barry is the first to say that if it is your time to die then God will take you, but if it isn’t your time these steps will help you.
 One amazing thing Dr. Barry said is that people have been cured/healed from every type of cancer. So it is possible to beat any type you have.
 He said the main thing is a positive attitude to overcome. If you think you are going to die you will even if it’s not your time.
  Having faith and praying, growing closer to God are all very important steps. Nothing will make you stronger than being close to God.
  This isn’t the only thing that can cause cancer, but one thing is having a very drastic thing happen in your life, like a death of a family member, divorce, loss of job. It all depends on how you handle these horrific events. The main reason you could get cancer during these times is because your immune system is fighting your emotions and the cancer slips in.
  Also things like diet, not exercising or bad habits.
   The book is telling us even if these things happen we have hope. Never lose sight of that, because once your hope is gone it’s to late. Also if a doctor tells you, you only have a few weeks or months don’t believe them. God is the one who is in control and you need to keep the faith and hope. Very interesting, small book. Recommended.

MY REVIEW
  The Five Times I Met Myself by James L. Rubart is just incredible. Every single book I have read by James L. Rubart has been the same. I so enjoy when he has a new book out, because I know I can expect a book full of intriguing, interesting topics you don’t get from other authors.  His books aren’t about your normal, every day things that lots of authors write about.
  In The Five Times I Met Myself Brock has been having a mysterious, crazy dream, so he tells his friend about it. The friend gives him a book about lucid dreaming. Where you can control your dreams and talk to people or visit events. It’s having control over your dreams.
  Since everything in Brock’s live is falling apart he thinks if he would have done things differently his life would have turned out better. He wouldn’t be in the shape he is in now. So he goes in his dream back to talk to himself and tells himself certain areas to change and things to do differently.
  The only bad thing about this is things started to go from bad to worse. Even when he thought he changed his life for the better somehow things just kept getting crazier.  Now after he has visited himself four times he wants to make things the way they were before he started the lucid dreaming. Will Brock be able to do this?
  So many outcomes and so many changes, what will really happen? This book is just wonderful. So very, very interesting and it will keep you reading. Very highly recommended. If you have never read any of James L. Rubart’s books now is the time to start. I just can’t say enough how much I love this book.

Dark Justice by Brandilyn Collins A Review

ABOUT DARK JUSTICE
If I’d had any idea what those words would mean to me, to my mother and daughter, I’d have fled California without looking back.

While driving a rural road, Hannah Shire and her aging mother, who suffers from dementia, stop to help a man at the scene of a car accident. The man whispers mysterious words in Hannah’s ear. Soon people want to kill Hannah and her mother for what they “know.” Even law enforcement may be involved.

The two women must flee for their lives. But how does Hannah hide her confused mother? Carol just wants to listen to her pop music, wear her favorite purple hat, and go home. And if they turn to Hannah’s twentyseven- year-old daughter, Emily, for help, will she fall into danger as well?

Pressed on all sides, Hannah must keep all three generations of women in her family alive. Only then does she learn the threat is not just to her loved ones, but the entire country

MY REVIEW
  Brandilyn Collins books are always fantastic, but Dark Justice is one of my favorites.
  Hannah and her mother who has dementia happen to come upon an accident scene. While trying to help the dying man Hannah and her mom find out something that doesn’t make sense, but they know it is so very important.
  For what they find out and what the dying man slips in Hannah’s pocket everyone is after them. Not just for the information they know but for their very lives.
  Hannah doesn’t want to get her daughter involved, but she doesn’t know who else to trust with such important information.
  The local law enforcement, FBI and the criminals are after them. Where should they go and what should they do?
  Such an exciting, interesting novel. I really, really loved it and look forward to more books by Brandilyn. Read this book and you won’t be sorry you did. Very highly recommended.

Silent Cry by Dorothy J. Newton A Review

ABOUT SILENT CRY

Raised near New Orleans as one of six children, Dorothy Newton was surrounded by abuse and poverty as she grew up. But she became the first in her family to graduate from college and moved out of poverty. She then began to live out her dreams in Dallas of a better home and life when she married celebrity superstar football player Nate Newton. She had gone from poverty to the pinnacle of success. She was married to a handsome, successful, famous professional athlete, who was a three time Super Bowl Champion and six time Pro-Bowler for the Dallas Cowboys.

But all that glittered was not gold.

Before long the relationship turned abusive. She found herself living in the world she thought she had escaped in her years growing up. The world did not see her suffering behind closed doors—she was betrayed, treated abusively, threatened continually. Dorothy was trapped with no one to talk to and nowhere to run. In this book Dorothy shares her experiences of pain, loss, survival, hope, recovery, and victory. A gripping story throughout, A Silent Cry is a testament to Dorothy’s will to live and the peace that comes with hope in the God who sees and hears your tears—even when no one else does

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

From a young age she witnessed her stepfather physically and verbally abuse her mother—images that would haunt her for years. Though she promised herself that she would never be in such a marriage, like so many others, she repeated her mother’s pattern—her abuser just happened to be a loved celebrity—a Super Bowl NFL football champion with the Dallas Cowboys. Who would believe her even if she dared to reveal her painful secret?

Dorothy is the Practice Administrator for a health care organization, where she is pursuing her M.B.A.  She is the proud mother of two boys—Nathaniel Newton III (Tre’), who is on an athletic scholarship at the University of Texas, and Nate King Newton. She has appeared on numerous television and radio programs as the former wife of retired Dallas Cowboy’s NFL player Nathaniel Newton, Jr.

MY REVIEW

  Silent Cry by Dorothy J. Newton is an excellent book. An autobiography that tells of abuse that is mentally and physically. Dorothy tells about her childhood and how her father abused her mother and how Dorothy was never going to get into a relationship where abuse was.
  Dorothy was/is a very intellect person. She stayed so very close to God, because He is the only one Dorothy could trust to not hurt her or leave her. Dorothy was the first one in her family to graduate college and become a woman who could support herself. She didn’t want to end up like her mother staying in a relationship because she didn’t have any money or anyone to go to, to get away from an abusive relationship.
  Then Dorothy met Nate Newton famous superstar football player for the Dallas Cowboys. Things were fine for a while and Dorothy gave up her job and depended on Nate. Then he started abusing her and the cycle started all over again. In Silent Cry Dorothy tells about the things she went through and how she never would have made it if she didn’t have the Lord in her life. Besides the physical, emotional abuse Dorothy put up with a cheating, lying husband and stood by him in all things.
  She reported Nate’s behavior several times, but him being a superstar no one would believe her or take her side.
  She stayed until she feared for her life and what it would do to their sons if she stayed. Read this book of incredible faith and how Dorothy made a new life for herself. She now helps other people in the same situation she was in. A very extraordinary book. Highly recommended.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I was born on the east coast, lived on the west coast and educated in the south, where I graduated college in a record four years earning the most advantageous degree: documentary film. I’d like to waste this moment and give thanks to all the countries I’ve been to. Were it not for your fabulously unusual experiences, I would not be the same. In Mexico I took a crash course in salsa; in Nepal I was trained in the art of survival. In Montenegro I grasped the illusive concept of how not to rush; in New Zealand, I learned how very different the English language can be. In South Africa, I discovered a passion for writing. In all I’ve been to 17 countries and want to keep adding to the list, searching for new life experiences and amazing adventures.

MY REVIEW
  Bloodrayne Redemption by Raber is a very short story. Parts of the book were fascinating, but other parts didn’t make a lot of sense.
  This is her first book and I see great potential in her style and how she can describe things. I believe Raber will become a great writer in the future.
  This first book was a little lacking and made me wonder how all of the loose ends fit together. The idea of the story was pretty neat, but it still needs a lot of work in my opinion.
I recommend you read this book, because it is a short story and you can see the potential that I did.  Good story, but needs more work.

My First Hands-On Bible a review

My First Hands-On Bible
This Pretty Pink deluxe edition of My First Hands-On Bible is the preschooler version of the popular Hands-On Bible, which has sold nearly one million copies. Jesus taught with hands-on lessons and illustrations; My First Hands-On Bible uses the same experience-based learning to communicate God’s Word in an active, understandable way.

My First Hands-On Bible is a fun and simple, yet meaningful way to engage preschool, prekindergarten, and kindergarten children (ages 3–6) with the Bible while helping them build a solid faith foundation. Each lesson focuses on a specific Bible point through a variety of activities in order to reinforce and help young children remember the stories and lessons. Using common household items, you can help your children have a “hands-on” learning experience while engaging them in 85 key stories from the Bible.

My First Hands-On Bible doesn’t just retell the Bible stories; it also includes actual Scripture from the easy-to-understand and easy-to-read Holy Bible, New Living Translation. In addition to the stories and activities, there are fun illustrations, prayers, and a special Jesus Connection feature.

MY REVIEW
   The My First Hands-On Bible comes in a very pretty pink color and the feel of the Bible is so soft. Any little girl will just love to own one. The Bible takes many stories from the Old and New Testaments.
  Some of the stories are God Creates the World, God Parts the Red Sea, Jericho’s Falling Walls,  Jesus is Born, Jesus Loves Children, Life in Heaven, Jesus Will Come Back. There are many, many more stories with full, beautiful, colorful pictures.
  There are hands-on activities. During different stories you will come across colored handprints. When you see a handprint you stop reading and do an activity with your child.
  Each passage ends with a prayer and questions.
   There are places called Pockets and Cuddles. The pockets show a little Kangaroo that tells you it’s time to pray. Also Cuddles the Lamb leads you in more activities.
  Then there is the section called Jesus Connection. Your child will see that Jesus is the center of all scripture. And your child will know that Jesus is a real part of life.
  I highly recommend this first Hands-on Bible for any child from 3-6 years of age. Really precious Bible.
