Head on over and "follow" her blog through friend connect and fill out the short form to be entered in to this giveaway!

What I've been up to the past week:
*I discovered Audible.com. I can't believe I've never tried it before! I just finished Courageous the audio book and it was outstanding! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! Very well written,very rich story. I encourage you all to pick up a hard copy or if you would prefer or download from kindle via ap or pc version reader: http://www.amazon.com/Courageous-ebook/ if you don't have a kindle or listen on audible: http://www.audible.com/pd/ref=sr_1_1?asin=B005ESGQ4C&qid=1318444025&sr=1-1
*I learned how to make a lot of different crafts including: ribbon bows,headbands with feathers and lace and lots more! This sweet lady is absolutely awesome for tutorials though she charges money for most of her instructions they are very easy to understand!: http://snazziedrawers.com/  I have only had the chance to actually make one project though and that would be a no sew tutu! I found an excellent tutuorial for this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTXo6uv9HxA
I will post pics here as well as my facebook:http://facebook.com/LizzyLouWho22 in the next few days!

I have gotten very far behind in my samples by mail reviews and I hope to be getting back to them very shortly! I hope you all are well. We are doing well and are excited as we have some big changes coming our way in our family and I hope to be able to update everyone publicly soon on that front!

Blessings!
Have a great day!

Start! The bible for new believers (review)

Oh my it has been a very long time since I posted a review to this site! I'm hoping to change all of that permanantly as I plan to review new books and products on a regular basis! I hope you all will look forward to reviews on other things such as food and drink samples I recieve by mail!
Well let's get on with it!: The review for START! With commentary written by Greg Laurie!

Start! The Bible for believers is jam packed with easy to find information for new believers or for people who have been reading the bible for years and want to know more about God. The easy to follow arrow system makes learning more about the bible effortless. It's equipped with inspirational writing throughout that can be helpful during devotion, especially for those who don't wish to carry around a seperate devotional book.This an excellent bible and I would recommend it to youth groups, youth pastors, and children's pastors especially as the format is very compatable for those age groups while avoiding the "cheezyness" of a kids or teen bible. I challenge all who buy this to give it a try during daily devotional. I didn't want to put it down!

I have been given a free copy of this bible to review by the booksneeze program at Thomas Nelson publishing company. I have in no way been paid or recompensated for these statements as they are my own true opinion!
