A Lady's Honor by Laurie Alice Eakes

A Lady's Honor
by Laurie Alice Eakes
(Zondervan 2014)

Of all of Laurie Alice Eakes' books that I have read, I have not found a book I did not like; and I am in still in search of a four-star book of hers.

A Lady's Honor delighted and intrigued me. Her exceptional descriptions landed me in the 1811 countryside. Her emotional dialogue left me breathless.

There were enough twists and revelations that kept the story pushing forward. Never a dull moment. Never a slow passage.

Laurie Alice Eakes never disappoints and always seem to go one step higher in her writing. She's an author to always have on your shelves. Vivid imagery, historically accurate, and pure emotions make this book a top winner.

This is a short review, but there's only three words to describe this A Lady's Honor: OUTSTANDING, WONDERFUL, and DELIGHTFUL!

God's Name is a Tower by LeAnne Blackmore (Ambassador International 2019) "You are my strong tower--" This line from the book resonates. With its whimsical illustrations, the book captures the essence of that statement. A child's faith is innocent and our faith should be like that, too. Each page affirms the truth of the Bible and of Jesus. It is a wonderful book that will build up a child's confidence and strength. Little truths about blessings, how Jesus sees us, the power of His word, and so on are brought to the young reader as a beautifully written rhyme. One unique addition, which I haven't seen in any other book, is the added Scripture at the bottom of the page. It relates to the story and gives even more depth to the truth taught. Of course the best part was saved for last: "For You are my Comforter,  You are my Guide,  To You I will run-- I'll find shelter inside." This may be written for ch

Shirley Corder's Strength Renewed

Shirley Corder's Strength Renewed: Mediations for Your Journey through Breast Cancer Shirley Corder's Strength Renewed is not just for those who suffer or have suffered from breast cancer...it is also for those who suffer from depression, anxiety, lethargy, pain, and all other "cancers" in life. From page one I found myself uplifted by Shirley's words. Although I have read the passages of Scripture before, I reread them with new understanding and new life. Just as her book provides new life to hope. I am listing a few things at the beginning that captured me so thoroughly that I went back and reread that chapter of meditation: " Jesus and his disciples came across a man who had been blind all his life. 'Who's to blame for this man's blindness?' the disciples asked Jesus. 'No one," Jesus replied. He explained that God's power would be revealed as a result of the man's disability.... ...Cancer is finite. God is way
