Wit Goes Green

Looking for a fast paced witty book-southern style? Then look no further than Tamara Leigh's Restless in Carolina. Our heroine, Bridget Pickwick-Buchanan, is an eco-friendly, thirty something widow who must find a buyer for the family estate. The cast of characters is a real mix from five year twins to an elderly uncle suffering from Alzheimer's Disease. Add in two developers who profess to be eco-friendly and will not destroy the surrounding acres of unspoiled land that the house sits on. But Bridget is in for more than she bargains for with developer J.C Dirk who holds his own secrets. Secrets that could change the way she looks at her families past. To find out the secrets, who is really interested in the land and who is interested in Bridget, you have to read the book!

To Be Blessed

Authors John Trent and Gary Smalley have championed me, as a parent, to not only embrace the blessing but to live out its message with my children. The Blessing, revised and updated edition, shares why the blessing is important and what happens when the blessing is not received. Both authors provide many personal accounts of how each of them have received the blessing and passed it on as well as others stories. Also, this new edition puts forth the blessing challenge. That is: "calling one million parents to choose to change the life of one child by giving them their blessing. And equipping one thousand churches to create an ongoing culture inside their church that helps parents live out the blessing for a lifetime." One can only imagine the exponential effect this could have on our society.
