A Love That Multiplies

A Love That Multiplies: An Up-Close View of How They Make it WorkA Love That Multiplies: An Up-Close View of How They Make it Work by Michelle Duggar
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great book. I really enjoyed their first book, so I was curious to see how the family has changed. Lots of honesty from the Duggars. They don't preach or take a 'holier-than-thou' attitude. They are simply sharing their life. Take it as you will. I really enjoyed the recipes and pictures they shared, as well as the advice and tips. It was also refreshing to hear that they struggle with challenges, but they take a stance that is definitely not culturally approved. Acting with love and seeking and giving forgiveness when needed. These are the kind of people I want to be around or work with or live near. Family should be cherished!

Prayer by Joyce Rupp

PrayerPrayer by Joyce Rupp
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a great resource for developing your prayer life. It is relevant to someone who is struggling or questioning whether prayer matters. It also provides references for those who are looking to go deeper in their prayer life, or revitalize it. Bottom line - prayer is different for each person, and there is no 'right' way to pray. Good resource.
