2017 Book Reviews

One side effect of moving is the significant lack of social events. This is awesome for anyone who, like me, is a reader. In fact, one of the very first places I go, after relocating to a new city, is to get a library card. In the past seven months, I’ve checked out over 60 […]

August 17, 2014 By Wendy Willard · Leave a Comment ·

My grace is all you need, because my power is perfected in weakness.

This is my week of book reviews, right? Well, here’s one more, this time about Jen Hatmaker and Interrupted. I started with fiction (Running the Rift), then switched to non-fiction (The Insanity of Obedience), then back to fiction (with some classic Ted Dekker), and now I’m rounding it all out with another non-fiction book (in […]
