The Plans I have for you Devotional and Journal Book Reviews



Part of a new brand in the Zondervan family, The Plans I Have for YOU! is an illustrated 90-day devotional written by bestselling children’s book author Amy Parker and illustrated by Vanessa Brantley Newton, teaching and inspiring kids to dream about their future, to focus on faith, love and joy and recognize that God has a plan and purpose for each and every one of us.

My Review:
This devotional will be perfect for your kids this Christmas!   In this devotional you will find 6 different sections including:  I've got big plans for you, I've given you a purpose, I don't do things small, There's nothing you can't do, Find that one thing, and last What I created you to do.  

Each section is very fast to read with scriptures scattered throughout the book.  There are moments to really think and reflect and seek God in prayer.  The ninety days for this devotional will go super fast but while you read you develop a better understand of God's purpose for your life which will give you a better calling.   



Part of a new brand in the Zondervan family, The Plans I Have for You journal prompts creative thinking and exploration of the talents and personalities that make us special, and then helps explore how God may use our unique traits to spread love and joy and make the world a better place.

My Review
This journal is actually a lot of fun!   There are different writing sections along with activities scattered throughout the whole book.   It is a book that will help develop the habit of journaling while doing devotions.   This devotional is sure to bring a smile to kids faces.  

I know as an educator I can appreciate this journal for my 8 year old.   It will encourage the writing process while digging deeper into understanding the will of God in my child's life.   I am wrapping it up for Christmas!  I hope she loves it.   

Thank you Zondervan for sending me these two books in exchange for an honest review.   I was not paid for this review 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...

Timeless Truth Bible - Blogger Review #timelesstruths #biblegram #bible #Christianbookstagram

About this Bible: The Christian faith is founded upon an unchanging and unceasing confession: that “Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:11). This is the confession upon which all our hope, and all our joy, rests. The  Timeless Truths Bible  will encourage you in this truth through the wisdom of those who came before us with: Devotional notes and commentary from trusted theologians and pastors from the second century up to the twentieth to stir your affections. Ancient creeds and confessions of the faith to grow your understanding of what we believe—and have always believed. Artwork made throughout the history of Christianity to deepen your worship of God. My Review: I have a full house often being a pastor and now that we have a bonus daughter with us she is the blessed one to receive this Bible.  She has been desiring a bible to take notes in so when she saw margins she was pretty excited.  Then with the leather she was more exci...
