Praying God's will for your life by Stormie Omartian

This book is so perfect with getting ready to start a new year as I know that my prayer life is not where it should be and this book is such an amazing book about praying in general, over ones own life and drawing closer to God which I so desperately need. I loved how deeply personal the things Stormie shared were, she really let you glimpse at her heart and where she has been and how God has changed her life. I've read other books by Stormie and really liked them and this one was every bit as good!
Drawing richly on scriptures this book is a great way to breathe new life into your prayer life which will in turn add so much more to your life. Rich in insight and wisdom this book is a great read.

Chosen People by Robert Whitlow

I have not really gotten into Robert Whitlow's books before but the premise of this one looked utterly fascinating and I do like a good legal thriller, so I decided to give it a try and I am glad I did! I really enjoyed the story line of this book as it was fascinating learning more of the inns and outs of the legal system.
This book is heartbreaking at the same time,dealing with a young women's death from terrorist attacks and her family trying to get legal justice. I loved how it brought in a wide array of characters and found the character of Hanna to be utterly fascinating ,especially seeing how she was often prejudged because of being an Arab although she was a Christian.
This book has so many twist and turns,just when you think you figure it out you are taken in another direction which I absolutely loved!
Well written and engaging this book was not an easy read but was worth the effort!

Love like that by Dr. Les Parrott

For anyone who struggles with how to love like Christ did this is the book for you. I know  I have realized that as much as I long to reach out and show Christ to others that I am seriously lacking in the love area.With keen insight and honesty this book is such a candid view at how to love more like Jesus. Broken down into 5 chapters this book focuses on Mindful, Approachable, Grace-full, Bold and Self giving all of which I really enjoyed and found in myself realizing how much I am lacking in all 5 of those areas.
I find Dr. Parrott's writing to always be very refreshing and encouraging,as with his marriage books he doesn't pretend that he has all of the answers but shares his struggle and his victories as well.
Well written and very easy to read this book is wonderful.
