And

What is your favorite?

I love The Violet Flash by Mike Mason and Glorious Ruin by Tullian Tchividjian!

The Violet Flash: A Novel

Glorious Ruin: How Suffering Sets You Free

All I've read so far from David Cook is the Grand Tour series. I am making notes about both of your favs fir future reads. Thank you!

I haven't read those yet.

Good to note, I was intrigued by Tullian on the Billy Graham special the other night. I googled him and will try to read that one soon.

I resonate with so much of Tullian's writing. Here's a passage from his new book One Way Love: Inexhaustible Grace for an Exhausted World

"The Gospel of Jesus Christ announces that because Jesus was strong for you, you're free to be weak. Because Jesus won for you, you're free to lose. Because Jesus was Someone, you're free to be no one. Because Jesus was extraordinary, you're free to be ordinary. Because Jesus succeeded for you, you're free to fail."

I really enjoyed A Heart Deceived by Michelle Griep and The Language of Sparrows by Rachel Phifer. But honestly Cook continually blows me away with their author selection. You truly think outside the box and I respect that.

I loved all of these:



And I want to read these in particular

The River of Time series and Grand Tour series by Lisa T. Bergren - love them!! :D

Oh and shoot! I forgot INTO THE FREE and WHEN MOUNTAINS MOVE!

My favorite book is Two Crosses by Elizabeth Musser. I loved the entire trilogy too!

I also really liked Ginger Garret's Lost Love's of the Bible series; my favorite being Chosen.

Thanks, Renada! I actually already have both of them on Kindle, just gotta get around to reading them. They are on my 2014 list :)

Hopefully some other folks will snap them up - what great prices!

Hi, Beth! You will LOVE ! I read it last June and thought that it was an amazing book with realistic characters and situations relevant to readers. The second book in the series, , just released yesterday, and it was just as fantastic, if not better! :-)
