life’s simplest pleasures and life’s greatest joys : all hung from a clothesline.
His Guilt by Shelley Shepard Gray Did not disappoint. When given the chance to join this book tour with Litfuse Publicity group I jumped at the chance to read an Amish Fiction book by this New York Times best selling author. But I realized quickly it was the second in a series called “The […]
Stepping on Cheerios by Betsy Singleton Snyder surprised me. There were quite a few tidbits I walked away with as great reminders of what I can or need to do in motherhood. I chuckled under my breath and shared some stories with people around me. Overall it was a somewhat enjoyable read – a lot […]
The Captains Daughter by Jenifer Delamere is an engaging and exciting start to the “London Beginnings” series. The Bernay sisters are a promising and dynamic trio that will lead the story in several very different directions. As the story unfolds you read about Rosalyn Bernay and Nate Moran. I won’t give this exciting love story […]
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 […]
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 […]

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 […]
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 […]
