Book Review- "Devotions from the Kitchen Table"

Book Description

Taste and see God’s goodness from the heart of your home—the kitchen table.
A simple meal shared around a table. A fresh cup of coffee and God’s Word in the quiet hours of the morning. The joy of laughing with friends and family.
Devotions from the Kitchen Table invites you to slow down and appreciate the gifts that are right in front of you. These ninety devotions will inspire you to sit in God’s presence, nourish your soul, and cherish the people who grace your kitchen table.
Take a seat at the table and reflect on the extraordinary blessings that are wrapped up in the most ordinary moments at home.


My Review:
I will be the first to admit that I am still a student in the kitchen.  I have improved since I first got married but I still have a ways to go.  This book is a 90 day devotional centered around all things kitchen related.  It is really neat to see the author relate different experiences to God all centered around HIM and the table or kitchen.  
One thing as a pastor's wife our family tries to open our house up as often as we can to host a family over for a meal.  We find it the best way to build relationships but we also have fun with it and our kids enjoy it when other kids come! I find the kitchen and eating a  meal with someone is one way to open the doors of communication.  
This book offers fantastic pictures of everything kitchen related and will help the reader commune with God.  As you read these devos it will help you recall different memories you have and draw you closer to God.  
I still have a few more days to read but overall I am enjoying the book and would recommend it.  I will probably pass it along as a gift to a friend soon too!  
Thanks BookLook program for sending me this book free of charge in exchange for an honest review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% my own.

"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...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids don’t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
