THE DEBT by Angela Hunt http://www.angelaelwellhunt.com/

Compelling. Thought-provoking fiction read. Forever changed the way I view ministry. A must-read for any Christian who longs to break out of the church bubble of business as usual. I am a huge Hunt fun! Her novels typically take an unexpected twist at the end.

REDEEMING LOVE by Francine Rivers http://www.francinerivers.com/

Masterful writing! Moving message. Unforgettable characters. This one will stand the test of time. A modern day classic with a timeless theme of love and redemption. I couldn't put this book down. My husband who doesn't like to read finished the book in two days flat. No small feat since it's over 400 pages long. Give me a River's book and I feel at home.

IN THEIR OWN WAY, DISCOVERING AND ENCOURAGING YOUR CHILD'S PERSONAL LEARNING STYLE by Thomas Armstrong

This nonfiction read revolutionized our homeschool life during my daughters' growing up years. Chuck and I began to understand why one child liked to listen to music while she studied, while another liked us to give her the assignment and then let her retreat to her room to mull it over. Using Armstrong's practical and user-friendly guide, we were able to assess each of our learning styles, thus opening up a fresh understanding of each other. Breaks down subject areas and gives you ideas on how to teach that subject to each learning style. A must read for every parent and educator! http://www.amazon.com/

SAME KIND OF DIFFERENT AS ME by Ron Hall & Denver Moore with Lynn Vincent

From the back cover: A dangerous, homeless drifter who grew up picking cotton in virtual slavery. An upscale art dealer accustomed to the world of Armani and Chanel. A gutsy woman with a stubborn dream. A story so incredible no novelist would dare dream it. This amazing true story with characters whose words and actions continue to haunt me, moves me to a deeper consideration for those who are often overlooked in our society. www.amazon.com
