Wallpaper: When all around us seems bleak



When all around us seems bleak,

we can look ahead to the promise of what will be.

We’re on the journey now, but He’s bringing us home.

Wallpaper: Lord, you know what is best.



Lord, you know what is best. May your will decide what shall be done. Give what you will, how much you will, and when you will. Do what you know is best for me, do what pleases you and brings your name most honor. Put me where you will, and deal with me in all things as you please. I am in your hand— turn me backwards and forwards, turn me upside down. Here I am, your servant, ready for anything, for I have no desire to live for myself, but only to live perfectly and worthily for you.
-Thomas à Kempis, "The Imitation of Christ"

Book Review: Noah: Man of God (Remnant Trilogy #3)

Noah: Man of God (Remnant Trilogy #3)Noah: Man of God by Tim Chaffey

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


*This is a review copy from the publisher, Master Books. No review, positive or otherwise, was required—all opinions are my own.*

Noah: Man of God was a great, satisfying ending to the Remnant Trilogy. This wasn't your usual telling of the familiar Bible story. The author did not choose to stay within the confines of the bare bones of the story, but gives you some imaginative ideas to think about within the allowable parameters of the biblical text. I felt like Noah was more of a real person rather than just a story. It felt as though I was seeing Noah trust God when he really had little to go on.
I knew that only Noah and his family would get on the ark, but often wondered about his friends and family throughout. Even though I knew the ending, I felt some suspense. The author did a great job working out their journeys.

At the end of the book there is a question & answer section. This was helpful in gaining more insight on the fact & the fiction side of the story.

There is also a section called Encounter This. In this section you can connect the story to the Ark Encounter project in Williamstown, Kentucky.

I would recommend this book for teens and adults.

Book Review: Noah: Man of Destiny by Tim Chaffey

Noah: Man of Destiny by Tim Chaffey

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


*This is a review copy from the publisher, Master Books. No review, positive or otherwise, was required—all opinions are my own.*

Noah: Man of Destiny is a well-written, fascinating account of Noah. The author does a great job being true to the BIble with the limited amount of information about the character that it contains. This book covers Noah’s journey to become a boat builder, Noah finding his wife and Noah’s voyage in adulthood. This book helps the character of Noah come off the pages as a real person and not just a character in a story.

At the end of the book there is a question & answer section. This was helpful in gaining more insight on the fact & the fiction side of the story.

I would recommend this book for teens and adults.

Book Review: Noah: Man of Resolve by Tim Chaffey

Noah: Man of Resolve by Tim Chaffey




*This is a review copy from the publisher, Master Books. No review, positive or otherwise, was required—all opinions are my own.*

Noah: Man of Resolve immediately picks up where the story in book one leaves off. This books focus is pre-flood, so the story includes alot of corruption and violence. But we see Noah being steadfast in his faithfulness to God.

At the end of the book there is a question & answer section. This was helpful in gaining more insight on the fact & the fiction side of the story.

I would recommend this book for teens and adults.
