Lately, it seems like a lot of conversations with my girlfriends all start out with this: "You have GOT to read this book- it's changing my life!" I have my life-long high school girlfriends, my Fort Mill/CTK home group girlfriends, my neighbor girlfriends, my Bible Study girlfriends, my book club girlfriends, and the list goes on. I am VERY blessed that way... all the girlfriends. And all the recommendations.
Yesterday, in our Beth Moore Bible Study- Living Beyond Yourself- Exploring the Fruit of the Spirit, she addressed the importance and influence of women. I am very blessed to be influenced to read the following by the most important women in my life (have read some, some are on the list, still to go):
Fort Mill/CTK home group girlfriends-
The List, by Robert Whitlow- thanks, Melissa T.- AMAZING! Tore through it in four days reading it in carpool line, and after the kids were in bed. They made a movie out of it. Nuff said.
The Power of a Woman's Words by Sharon Jaynes
Life-long girlfriends-
"The Power of a Praying Wife" by Stormie Omartian
Captivating, Unveiling the Mysteries of a Woman's Soul- by John and Stasi Eldredge- This one was recommended by several girls- accross all the circles. Read it, but read all the way through. Some of the best insights are at the middle to the end.
Boundaries, by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend- again from several girls.
Neighborhood girlfriends-
anything by Francine Rivers, recommended by Julia
Girl's Book Club-
"The Five Love Languages" by Dr. Gary Chapman. Okay, so this is an older one, but the girls book club, and Brandi lit the fire under me to finally read it. This book changed the way I love my family, my husband and my kids. A MUST HAVE tool for every relationship in your life!
Enjoy, and happy reading!
