WORLD WITHOUT CANCER by G. Edward Griffin.
I
can't recommend this book enough. EVERYONE should read this book!
Muscle
and a Shovel is a raw, gritty, true story about a pair of young newly-weds who
move to the city to chase the American dream. In the process they are
befriended by a man who turns their belief about God, their church, and their
faith upside down!
Baptists,
Methodists, Presbyterians, Catholics, the Community Churches - none are spared
when Truth is at stake and their new friend Randall isn't about to
"candy-coat" God's Word for the sake of "political
correctness" or "religious tolerance."
This
raw, uncensored story grabs you and doesn't let go! Prepare to have your
intellect, emotions, and existing beliefs set on fire!
ONE
BAPTIST PREACHER'S RESPONSE: This story provoked me on spiritual levels I
didn't know existed! Everyone who reads this story should be prepared to
"fight or flee" -- MUSCLE AND A SHOVEL is one of those rare books
that will raise your blood-pressure. You'll either give it to everyone you know
or put it in a shredder -- there's no middle ground. This book just might turn
the religious world on its ear!

HARDEMAN'S NEPHEW SAID:
Timely
and MUCH needed -- this is a book you'll read over and over! It's a
perfect gift written by an exquisite talent for simplicity, and direct enough
to touch the heart of every reader. It is a storehouse to treasure. Every
Christian should have a copy of this book in their home!

ONE THOUSAND GIFTS by Ann Voskamp
Just
like you, Ann Voskamp hungers to live her one life well. Forget the bucket
lists that have us escaping our everyday lives for exotic experiences. 'How,'
Ann wondered, 'do we find joy in the midst of deadlines, debt, drama, and daily
duties? What does the Christ-life really look like when your days are gritty,
long--and sometimes even dark? How is God even here?' In One Thousand Gifts,
Ann invites you to embrace everyday blessings and embark on the transformative
spiritual discipline of chronicling God's gifts. It's only in this expressing
of gratitude for the life we already have, we discover the life we've always
wanted...a life we can take, give thanks for, and break for others. We come to
feel and know the impossible right down in our bones: we are wildly loved--by
God. Let Ann's beautiful, heart-aching stories of the everyday give you a way
of seeing that opens your eyes to ordinary amazing grace, a way of being
present to God that makes you deeply happy, and a way of living that is finally
fully alive. Come live the best dare of all!

Today I received this amazing book, "One Thousand
Gifts" by Ann Voskamp, from a friend, and I can't put it down. It's an
answered prayer. I've been praying for peace and joy amidst all this cancer-fighting I've been doing for nearly two years, and now I know the way to
it is through thanksgiving to God for His many gifts. I'm not even finished
with Chapter Two, but already I'm thanking God for the gift of this book, and the
gift of understanding eucharisteo.
Thank You, Lord, for loving me. xxx
