The Blessing of Adversity - Book Review

Is adversity a bad thing? Can we learn from our adversity? These are the ideas in the book "The Blessing or Adversity" by Barry Black

Black shared stories in this book including a story about how he was chosen last and instead of feeling sorry for himself he purposed to better himself. He shares how he learned from his adversities. At the end of each chapter he has "An Action Plan." with ideas how to apply it. Black backs up his ideas with the Scripture.

We can choose to dwell in our adversity or learn and grow from them because things in life happen for a reason Romans 8:28.

I received this book for an honest review from Tyndale House Publishers.

Book Review: The Waiting Place

The Waiting Place

Learning to Appreciate Life's Little Delays

by Eileen Button

This book is a collection of essays. Throughout Eileens life she experienced delays well as struggles. She is open with her life. She is a Pastors wife as well as a columnist as well as a professor.

When I seen this book I thought this looks like a good book. It may be just that if you want to read a book about delays in someones life. I was disappointed in this book personally I was hoping the author would talk more about running to God with the issues in her life.

I was also disappointed in reading some off colored words. Some people may not think they are bad words but they were words that I would not use.

This book was just not what I was expecting it to me.

Book Review: Daddy Dates

Daddy Dates by Greg Wright

The road map for any dad to raise a strong and confident daughter.

I think that men need to help out other men be accountable to each other encourage each other exhort each other in the Lord.

I appreciate this book because I think that Greg took it to heart that Fathers should be a hero to their daughters. I just love to see when a daddy connects with his daughter, to me it is a picture of God and his children.

Greg does not come on like he has it all together he is learning as he goes trying to be the best Dad God has created him to be.

Greg gives stories about dates he had with his daughters as well as stories from their family life. He also gives ideas of dates that Fathers and Daughters can have together.

This book is an encouragement to Fathers to build a relationship with their daughters.
