pickI struggled with this book at the start. It really seems to be a rehashed version of "name it and claim it". I wanted to stop. I didn't. What I had to do was look for the principles behind his stories. Once I "ignored" the grandiose answers he seemed to get, I saw how the principles worked. As usual, God showed and kept me reading. Glad I read it. It's a different perspective. Time to make circles.
Christmas #bookhaul, part one: nonfiction
I‘m super excited about A History of Reading, after reading Manguel‘s The Library at Night this year.
Touch the Earth and Rage Prayers are books I discovered through my spiritual director. I‘m looking forward to dipping into those both for myself and to share with others
Praying with Jane Eyre is right up my alley with personal and spiritual reflection on literature
And, the LMM complete journals vol. 7!
pick5 Stars • The Imitation of Christ (Latin: De Imitatione Christi) is one of the most widely read Christian spiritual classics after the Bible. Written by the German-Dutch monk Thomas à Kempis (a member of the Brethren of the Common Life and the Devotio Moderna movement), composed in Medieval Latin around 1418-1427. ⬇️

pickThis is a beautiful collection of poems inspired and influenced by Maya Angelou's faith and love for humanity, and listening to her read them is a joy. Amazing Peace is such a gorgeous, moving poem to listen to at Christmas. (and I have to say, I wasn't expecting eulogies to Luther Vandross and Barry White.)
pickI have to say War Room is the best book I've read all year. It was so inspiring and emotional. I felt God speak to me throughout this book. I pray everyday, but this book makes me want a war room to talk to God. I highly recommend The War Room to everyone.
😊 Happy Reading 😊
