Book Review: "Prayers that Changed History"

Book Description:
One prayer can change everything, says bestselling author Tricia Goyer in Prayers That Changed History.
Martin Luther. Sojourner Truth. Helen Keller. St. Patrick. We read their stories, and of other people like them, in history books and hear about the amazing things they did to change the world. But one part of the story is often left out: Each one of them wouldn’t have accomplished what they did without prayer.
In Prayers That Changed History, the stories of twenty-five notable people are presented along with how prayer changed their lives and changed history. Following each historical example is a biblical story that ties to that person’s life and actions, as well as ways you can use the power of prayer in your life as well. Because God isn’t done changing the world yet, and he would love to use you to make history.
Includes images of each historical figure.

My Review:
This book was the perfect book to get you thinking about and self evaluating your prayer life.  As we continue to see moral decline in our country we must stick to getting on our knees and petitioning the Holy Spirit and God to soften our hearts back to HIM!   Back to loving our creator and loving others will move us in the right direction.   


I loved reading the prayers that were said and the mini history lesson from when it took place.  Each section also gives you the year, a picture, when the person lived, "something to think about,"  "how it changed history," "in their words," how it is related to the Bible, and how we can use the prayer in our own life.  

If you want your prayer life to get a kick start then get inspired by reading these amazing prayers in "Prayers that Changed History."  It is only $12.99 on Zondervan.  

Thanks Zondervan for sending me this book free of charge in exchange for an honest review.   I was not paid for this and all opinions are 100% mine.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...
