Book Review: Can I Really Know Jesus?: 101 Questions and Answers about Jesus, Salvation, and Prayer


Book Description: Can I Really Know Jesus?: 101 Questions and Answers about Jesus, Salvation, and Prayer Knowing Jesus is like no other relationship you’ve ever experienced. Cheerful artwork with a modern whimsical style wraps around honest, easy-to-understand answers to your toughest questions about the Savior, his invitation to salvation, and the assurance that God really does hear our prayers. Can I Really Know Jesus? will inspire and offer comfort as you grow closer to God and gain a better understanding of why he sent his Son to earth, what it means to have salvation, and how prayer can deeply impact your life. Also serves as a heartfelt gift of love and promise to those who are considering faith or are new believers.

My Thoughts: I really enjoyed this book. As a believer you still have questions and this book does a good job of sorting the scripture to find the answers you are seeking. I can see this a a great bible study tool or even a starting off point for a non or new believer. 101 pages of simple questions about Jesus, faith, and believing. I used this book as a devotional of sorts. I picked one of the 3 sections and went through it 1 page a day. I read the question applied it to where I currently am in my faith journey then studied the accompanied scripture. This I feel has helped me understand the bible a bit better. I like that it also opens up a door on how we can take those questions and turn them outward. Do you have a friend you want to bring closer to christ? I bet they have questions. Let this book guide you in discussion.

Book Review - Gratitude: A Prayer and Praise Coloring Journal

Book Description: Gratitude: A Prayer and Praise Coloring Journal invites you to bring creative journaling and the calming act of coloring into your quiet time with God. This beautifully designed interactive prayer book from Tyndale’s Living Expressions collection helps guide your thoughts as you pray about concerns such as health, overcoming stress, personal relationships, and more. Gratitude gives you a way to celebrate and give thanks to God for the many blessings he provides. Filled with over 100 designs to color, plenty of space for journaling and sketching, and 40 needs-based prayers, Gratitude helps you express your devotion to God with your whole heart!

My Thoughts: Over the course of a few weeks I used this as my daily devotional and a way to refocus my thoughts and become closer to God. As someone who's a beginning a journal, I liked the prompts offered on the pages. At least for me, it's helpful to have a starting point already there. Something to focus my thoughts and help me to get words on the page. I found it a lot less intimidating than just a blank page. The other unique feature of this prayer and praise Journal was the coloring aspect. Adult coloring books are becoming really popular. As studies have shown coloring is a good stress relief tool. So I thought it was pretty Innovative to have that a part of a devotional Journal. Some days when I wasn't ready to put words on the page it was still nice to be able to pull out the journal and color. Even while coloring I was able to calm my mind and my body and then be able to focus on praying or praising God. Overall I really recommend this book to anyone looking for a good devotional or way to calm your spirit and mind.

My thoughts: This is a really cute toy! Not only is it a fun toy for children of all ages. My children ages 8, 7 and 2 love it! But it could also be used as a learning tool. I'm currently teaching my two-year-old at home and the dry erase board and chalkboard have come in handy with teaching how to write his letters and his numbers the magnets are fun and teaching him how to identify colors and animals as well as different shapes. My older children love creating new stories and acting them out with the magnets. They have also use the dry erase and chalkboard sides to work out math problems and practice their spelling. This is truly versatile product combining play and work and makes learning engaging and fun. I completely recommend this and plan on buying a few more for my nieces and nephews.
