Book Review: "Courageous" by Randy Alcorn

I recently received the book "Courageous: Honor Begins at Home" by Randy Alcorn from Tyndale Publishers as part of their book review program. The opinions below are my honest opinion of the book.
This book is a novelization based on the movie and screenplay by Alex Kendrick and Stephen Kendrick. I was so excited to get this book to review as I am also excited to go see the movie. "Courageous" tells the story of four law enforcement officers who fight hard to protect their community. They are all four fathers and they quickly realize that they are doing a good job and not a great job as fathers. They give their best as law enforcers but are struggling to give their best to fatherhood. They soon discover that they are missing the mark that God wants them to live up to. As their children are drifting farther from them, tragedy strikes them all and leaves the men questioning everything. They come together through this hard time and make a Resolution to be the Fathers that God wants them to be. This is a great challenging story to call Fathers to stand up and be courageous in leading their families in God's Will. I would highly recommend this book and again, I can't wait to see the movie!!

Book Review: "Night Night Blessings" by Amy Parker

I recently received a complimentary copy of the book "Night Night Blessings" by Amy Parker from Tommy Nelson Publishers as part of the Booksneeze book review team. The opinions below are my honest opinion of the book.

"Night Night Blessings" is an adorable, story to read to your children before bedtime. It is about a little girl who is thanking God for all the things she is thankful for during the day. She gives thanks for high stacks of pancakes, her pets, her favorite toys, and family time. It is written in rhyme with adorable illustrations to accompany each page. I love that this story is teaching children to be thankful to God for all the little blessings in their lives. At the end she recognizes that God is so big He is watching from above. This is a great reminder for my children who are sometimes afraid to go to bed that God is above watching them always. I love this book and so do my children. I think we read it 3 times when we first received it!!

Book Review: "Gabby God's Little Angel" by Sheila Walsh

I recently received a complimentary copy of the book "Gabby God's Little Angel: Sent to show God's Love" by Sheila Walsh from Tommy Nelson Publishing as part of the Booksneeze book review team. The opinions listed below are my honest opinion of the book.

In this adorable children's book by Sheila Walsh, Gabby is one of God's little Angels in training to be a guardian angel for a special child. Gabby's first assignment is little Sophie who is an adventurous girl who seems to need lots of attention from Gabby. Sophie needs lots of protection and Gabby at first feels overwhelmed for the job. Raffles, the senior angel, reminds Gabby that the Lord chose her for the job of watching over Sophie. As Sophie is horseback riding she almost gets into an accident but Gabby steps in and protects her. Later that night, Sophie tells her mom that she almost felt someone protecting her. Her mother reminds her that God loves her so much He sends His angels to watch over us. This is a wonderful story to show children that God loves them and He is always watching over us and protecting us. This is the first book in a new series by Sheila Walsh who is also the author of the "God's Little Princess" Series. I loved all of those books and I look forward to more from this series.
