Leaders Who make a Difference by Paul Chappell

Leaders Who Make a Difference: Leadership Lessons from Three Great Bible Leaders by Paul Chappell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Paul has written a very concise introduction to three leaders of Old-Testament leadership.  I really enjoyed the afternoon read.


Compacted within this short read are some very inspiring nuggets that I will add to my collection of inspiring thoughts.


"If you are struggling to maintain consistent Bible reading, make a commitment that will help you with your priorities - determine that you will not eat until you have spent time in God's Word that day."


A faith that cannot be tested cannot be trusted"


Leadership is influence, and God has given all of us a measure of influence.  Fathers, mothers, ... church leaders ... - everyone has been entrusted with an influence that is uniquely his.  Leaders who make a difference are wise stewards of that influence."


I will be recommending this book to my friends!


Thanks Paul Chappell

Room of Marvels, A Novel by James Bryan Smith

Room of Marvels: A Novel by Smith, James Bryan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am speechless!

James Bryan Smith has written the best book on grief!  His understanding after living beyond multiple intimate friends and loved ones crossing over is marvelous.  I did not know what the synopsis of this book was when I downloaded from "Inspired Reads'" website.  I just knew that it had a high rating.  Mr. Smith has taken the time to fully develop a believable circumstance based loosely on his experiences and weaved together a tale that helps one through the grieving process.

After loosing my own mother earlier this year, I did not realize just how to grieve for a Christian loved one whom I will see again some day.  Mr Smith's has written a book outlining a process by which I can be joyous in knowing that  I will spend an eternity celebrating with my loved ones who have gone on before.

Thank You James Bryan, for writing this tale.  I am going to buy copies to give to several friends who are facing the unknown right now.
