YBW: Team Writing Recap

Back in October, I had the privilege to be part of the Launch Team for Rachel Held Evan’s latest book, Year of Biblical Womanhood: How a Liberated Woman Found Herself Sitting on Her Roof, Covering Her Head, and Calling Her Husband Master.  It was an honor and a lot of fun. I wrote a book review […]

A Long Way Gone, a Book Review

A couple weeks ago I listed my 2013 Reading Wish List which contained way too many books that I’d like to finish or start, many of which I owned already.  They are a mix of fiction, creative non-fiction and non-fiction (from gender issues to social issues to theology and history).  So far I’ve managed to […]

Reading Recommendations

Yesterday I listed my Reading Wish List for 2013.  This morning I started going through my books.  We need more space.  We need to raise some money to adopt a beautiful little girl.  I need to quit impulsively buying and hoarding good books.  I need to finish the ones I have.  Just going through the books this […]

2013 Reading Wish List

I have a very bad habit of starting books but not finishing them or picking books up on discounts but not always getting to them.  Many have said I should use the library but me and the library returning process have a shaky history. I read quite a few books each year.  I have never […]

Group Project (Year of Biblical Womanhood)

(I apologize for the absence/silence.  Sickness between my daughter and I have both made it difficult to write as well as zapped some motivation.  But thanks to time (really hoping we are all better now) and a great husband who is totally okay with a wife who hides for a day at a B & […]

The Danger of Being Biblical Or What Happens When the Bible Becomes an Adjective

This is my last post as part of Launch Week for Rachel Held Evan’s new book, A Year of Biblical Womanhood.  If you haven’t bought it or checked it out of the library I would encourage you to do so.  You may not agree with everything but it will challenge you and make you laugh, […]

Biblical Womanhood, Baking Powder & the Bible

This week as part of the Launch Team for Rachel Held Evan’s new book, A Year of Biblical Womanhood, I am posting some thoughts on what I believe are some of the best sentences of the book, sentences that stopped me in my tracks and made me think.  I hope you’ll join the conversation in the […]

The Year of Biblical Womanhood, a Review

I found Rachel Held Evans (blogger, author, speaker) after reading her first book, Evolving in Monkey Town.  I devoured the book, not because I agreed with everything she wrote, but because I found a common spirit.  I wasn’t alone.  Her approach to God, her faith, was from the perspective of doubt and questions versus belief […]

eBook Review: You Are A Writer (So Start Acting Like One)

If you are looking for a book […]
