Currently reading Sensible Shoes (I can’t remember the author off hand...Sharon Something?) but it is a book about the lives of four women at different parts of their walk with Jesus. It’s amazing! It also has a study guide sold separately and reading them both with my friends has taken us on an amazing journey with the book, with the LORD, and With each other!! I highly recommend!
Yay! I was just at the library yesterday and told my husband I wish I had a list of Christian/classic/non-crap books that were wholesome and interesting to read! You have delivered! :) Now I can't wait to go back to the library. Thank you for including my recommendation of Let Me Be A Woman by Elisabeth Elliot. It's my favorite and I know others will love it as well. Have a blessed day! :)
