life's simplest pleasures and life's greatest joys : all hung from a clothesline.
Affiliate link provided. I spotted The Gatekeepers by Chris Whipple up for review and not only did I know I wanted to read it but I knew, months in advance, that I wanted to present it to my dad on Father’s Day. He is a huge politics buff and has passed on his interest to […]
Devotions from the Kitchen Table by Stacey Edwards is one I picked up because my parents’ kitchen table changed my life. And it changed, and continues to change, the lives of so many people. I have a love for “the table” and have written about it often here on Inspiration Clothesline. After reading the book […]
A Love So True is the second installment of the Teaville Morale Society series by Melissa Jagears. And truth be told when given the opportunity to review this book and after having read the description I went and checked out the first one for my library and read it in a matter of days […]
This book, The Magic of Motherhood, by Ashlee Gadd is so perfectly titled. Magic is so elusive and uncertain, just like Motherhood. It is enthralling, can be exhausting (especially when trying to figure it out), and wholly engaging – mind, body, and spirit. The essays in this book address each of these key components […]
What a great book for kids based on 19 stories from the Bible. Each of the “stories,” portrayed by beautiful two page spreads, highlight words that are perfect for kids 0-5 to learn these key Bible stories and just use simple language. We snagged this to put in an Easter basket for our youngest (1.5) […]
You guys I’m a reader… But I can’t think of a time I read a book in a single day. Two sittings, about 12 hours later and I had this book devoured. I would admit that the topic of adoption is of high interest to me, but even beyond that this family’s story is what […]
Finding a children’s book that is this beautifully written and reflectively illustrated is a rare treat. I not only love the quality of the product and the vivid, colorful printing; but even more importantly the story of self-assurance, sense of self and others, and the truth that we are loved by God. This book is […]
Today I’m sharing some practical tips about how I make reading in a busy lifestyle possible. I’d love to hear how you make time for things that are important to you… I truly believe we make time for the things we love and value so here are some ways I have found to help carve […]
Boy this book couldn’t have come at a better time. I wanted to read this book after hearing Kate Merrick speak at IF:gathering this past year. I knew a snippet of her story, about the loss of their young daughter to cancer, but not the complete story. To be honest all it took was her […]
While I cannot say You Are Free by Rebekah Lyons is one of a kind I can say that it’s message is SO MUCH more than its 231 pages. I believe this book is part of a movement. The themes of freedom, rescue, calling, confession, rest, grief, weakness, celebration, bravery… they are common themes among […]
