BELOVED 365 DEVOTIONS FOR YOUNG WOMEN

I had the chance to review BELOVED 365 DEVOTIONS FOR YOUNG WOMEN. No I am not a young woman, but I have a twelve year old daughter. I think it's interesting and good to have a devotional that shows young women the important woman in the Bible. I also believe it is essential for a young girl or woman to understand how important they are to their family and our churches.

This is my daughter holding this devotional, she's 12 and she said she will read it sometimes. 

From Zondervan comes Beloved: 365 Devotions for Young Women: #beloved I think this devotional would be a great present for young pre teens, teens and adult women alike.

Relationships, inner beauty, and chasing your dreams are all topics on the top of a teen girl’s list. So give them great Biblical role models to admire as they grow and understand who they are. Beloved is a topical devotional that uses the inspiring stories of girls and women in the Bible—such as Ruth, Esther, Mary, and Abigail—to encourage faith and confidence in today’s young women. Perfect for everyday use, Beloved will resonate with girls searching for truth and guidance. #FlyBy

NIV Adventure Bible Polar Exploration Edition Review

I had the opportunity to review NIV Adventure Bible Polar Exploration Edition Review. This Bible is the number one Bible for kids. The Bible starts out with a page where you can put the child's name and who the Bible is from. This Bible was obviously designed to get children excited about the Bible.

When I was a kid, I picked up the Bible, read it and thought it was a huge book filled with some cool stories. This Bible actually tells kids that this is the Bible, God's word. This NIV Bible stays true to God's word, but helps explain many of the more important parts to the Bible to kids. For example. I Corinthians 13. This is the book about Faith, Hope and Love. This Bible explains to kids and adults what this means in their lives. We can be the smartest, richest, most talented person in the world, but without love, we are nothing. I also like the part getting to know Jesus. This Bible sends you to the most important parts of the Bible to learn about Jesus. I like this Bible so much, I will be giving it to my son.

I could go on an on about this great Bible and tell you that it is perfect to teach your children and yes even yourself more about the Bible.

8 Primal Cuts Of Beef

There is a total of (8) Primal cuts of beef and within each of those cuts are sub-primal cuts. The sub-primal cuts are portions of beef that you would find in the grocery store like steaks, roasts and ground beef. Each of these sub-primal cuts are unique and very different from each other in the way they are handled, prepared, cooked and served.

Here we take a look at each individual primal cuts of beef which are: Shank, Brisket, Rib, Short Plate, Flank, Round, Chuck, and Loin. Each of these primal cuts is then broken down into sub-primal cuts which are what is sold to the consumer.

While one person may prefer a medium rare filet mignon, another may prefer a well-done pot roast. The temperature will always be a huge factor in how someone likes their meat prepared, click this link to see best thermometer for your beef cuts

HillsSong Can You Believe It? DVD Review

“Can You Believe It!? - Songs of Truth” is both a question and a challenge... a statement of gratitude to a loving God and an invitation to explore the very foundations of faith. Classic songs like “My Best Friend”, “Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)” and “What A Beautiful Name” join brand new declarations of faith such as “As The World Shakes” & “Heaven Is Our Home”. We pray that this collection of fun and vibrant songs, help children around the world to declare biblical truths about God’s love and grace for them.

Bio

Hillsong believes that teaching children to love God and others takes place in both the home and in the church. For this reason they seek to partner with parents (the greatest teachers of all!) and with church pastors and leaders, equipping them with great resources. Through fun experiences, meaningful music and ministry that encourages kids to participate, Hillsong Kids presents Jesus Christ and His Church in a relevant way, creating moments which children will never forget.

I had the chance to review HillsSong Can You Believe It? DVD This is a great DVD where your young kids can listen and dance to the music of HillSong  

#CanYouBelieveIt AND #FlyB This DVD would be good for family fun or children's church, your choice. My little niece loves to dance to music, so this DVD is for her. I think the DVD is fun because the children can follow and enjoy the videos as they sing the songs. It's also the perfect tool to help your small children learn and share the Biblical truths about God's love and Grace for them. You can buy this fantastic DVD on Amazon. I wish I had DVD's like this years ago, when I was involved with children's church. 

The Ellie Claire Art Journal Blog Campaign

I had the opportunity to review Three Ellie Claire Art Journals. I decided to review these journals because my twelve year old daughter is a natural artist and I wanted to see what she thought about each of the journals. Kind of a dad's way of trying to give my daughter another avenue for her art.

THE ILLUSTRATED WORD AN ILLUMINATED BIBLE COLORING JOURNAL

I like the Bible verses and ability to color in the art work in this journal. It also has plenty of room to write down your thoughts, like one would in a regular journal. My daughter says the same, although she does not like the little pictures on the left side because they take away from writing room. She also would have liked places to draw too, instead of just lined pages.

ILLUMINATE YOUR STORY JOURNAL

This book or journal is a journal where you can learn how to make calligraphy letters. Which is cool for an artist, but does nothing for a father who cannot even draw a circle. I did like the quotes from famous people like Billy Graham and the verses from Proverbs. I think this would make a good journal for a young girl. My daughter likes the calligraphy aspect about the journal, she thinks it is cool.

FAITH AND LETTERING JOURNAL  #EllieClaireGifts

The Faith and Lettering Journal is the one I believe is closest to a real journal. The journal has important Bible verses in fancy lettering and places to put your thoughts. My daughter likes that it has places to put notes, places to draw and places to practice. My daughter will use each one of these books for their various uses.

I believe each of these journals are cool and would make a good present for any girl of faith. These journals also give my daughter more ideas about how to use her artistic abilities now and when she grows up.

ANGER IS

ANGER IS WHEN YOU TAKE A BASEBALL BAT,
THROW IT ACROSS THE ROOM AND KNOCK YOUR YOUNGER BROTHER OUT
ANGER IS WHEN YOU TAKE A CROCHET STICK,
BREAKING IT OVER THAT SAME BROTHER'S THUMB

ANGER IS WHEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
SCREAMING
BECAUSE YOU WANT TO HURT SOMEBODY
LIKE YOUR ANGRY DRUNK FATHER DOES TO YOU

ANGER IS
WHEN YOU RUN AND RUN
HOPING TO GET AWAY FROM THE PAINFUL MEMORIES
OF CHILDHOOD

ANGER IS WHEN YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR
AND SEE A TEENAGER LOOKING BACK AT YOU
LOST AND ALONE
SURROUNDED BY EVIL WITH NO WAY OUT

ANGER MAKES YOU HATE YOURSELF
BECAUSE IT IS YOUR FAULT
THAT YOUR FATHER HATES YOU
AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHY

ANGER IS WHEN YOU REALIZE
YOUR CHILDREN WILL NEVER HAVE A GRANDFATHER
BECAUSE IT ISN''T SAFE
UNTIL THE DAY HE DIES

ANGER IS WHEN IT TAKES YOUR FATHER'S DEATH
BEFORE YOU ARE ABLE TO MUSTER THE WORDS
MY DAD MY FATHER
WHEN YOU THINK OF SOMEONE YOU LOST
WHO WAS NEVER REALLY A PART OF YOUR WORLD ANYWAY

ANGER IS SOMETHING

YOU LEARN AS A CHILD

ANGER IS A PART OF YOUR LIFE
UNTIL YOU TAKE THE TIME TO LET IT GO


.......... ANGER IS

INDIVISIBLE THE MOVIE IN THEATRES OCTOBER 26, 2018

INDIVISIBLE is the extraordinary true story of Army Chaplain Darren Turner and his wife Heather, whose lives are fully devoted to serving God, family, and country. But when war etches deep battle scars—both overseas and on the home front—the Turners’ rock-solid marriage is shaken to its core.

 Carrying burdens the other can’t comprehend, they must decide if they’re willing to face one more battle: the fight to save their marriage. From the director of The Grace Card and the studio that brought you Fireproof and War Room comes INDIVISIBLE, the story of one marriage … one family … under God. Starring Sarah Drew, Justin Bruening, Jason George, Tia Mowry, and Madeline Carroll, INDIVISIBLE opens in theaters October 26. 

This is a realistic movie about an Army chaplain trying to deal with war, be there for his men and forgetting about his own family. If you have ever had a family member go to war, you can understand the bond he or she have with the people they serve with in the trenches. What I like about this movie is it shows us that even a chaplain needs a kick in the behind sometimes and needs God's guidance to realize he has to work with his own heart before he can help anybody else, even in war. And even at home.

here is the link to the trailer.

Another thing I like about this movie is it's not just a movie, it's a true story. There is a resource page to lead individuals towards the help they may need to help their marriages and themselves. You can go here to find that resource page.

Again, many of us have family members who have dealt with war and it has affected their marriages. I'm looking forward to seeing this movie on the Big Screen with my family. If war has affected your family, let God come into your life and help you deal. Army Chaplain Darren Turner and his wife Heather did and it changed their lives and strengthened their marriage and their bonds with God.
