My Thoughts/ Review:
I was blessed with the opportunity to screen this movie at home with my family in exchange to promote and give a review on my thoughts.  THANK YOU for this wonderful opportunity.  My first initial thoughts brought these words to mind: Sweet Surrender, Redeemed, Transformed, and changed lives!   This movie was based on a true story and it got me rejoicing at the hearts that have been set free as well as eager for others to view the film and see Christ rightly- the one who transplants his heart into our chest to get rid of our fleshy icky heart! 
I watched this movie with my family and I asked each of them what their favorite part was.   My husband enjoyed the very though provoking question that was asked: "People always ask how a good God could send people to hell, but we don't as why He would even let us into heaven."  What a great question to ponder as so many are truly angry and blame God for all things.  What if we changed our perspective...
One of my kids said her favorite part was when the prisoner was offered freedom to deny Christ but said he would not do it!
Grandma Vicki and I both agreed that our favorite part was to see the heartless and rude guard who stated several times there was no God, fall in humility to exchange his angry bitter heart for salvation in a loving God.  
My other daughter really loved when the entire prison cell started singing Amazing Grace prisoners and guards both sang!  
We all could appreciate the beauty that was portrayed of life changing from darkness to light!  This film does a great job at showing the redemption story with healing and faith unwavering.  The film still does give off a low budget vibe in several scenes but I can appreciate the cast and the true story it was based off.

"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 words (sad, she, stay, this, with). The s

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week!  I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea  deodorant  that I had never used prior.  I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits. So how did the Dry Idea hold up to the hot and humid days at kids camp???  Arms raised high during worship in the morning and in the evening!  :)  I was dry and I did not stink!  :) WOOT WOOT!  I had the unscented brand and I usually do prefer a pretty scent but it worked and they do have scents which include powder fresh and cotton dry that I might try in the future.  :) The Dry Idea Roll-On is 24 hour protection, fast drying MicroCotton Formula, hypo allergenic, and contains Vitamin E.  :) Don't like roll on's??  They do offer Clear Gel and an Invisible Solid.  :) Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry roll-On so I could review them.  However,
