Stop Lurking! Every week I will draw names for a free Tricia Goyer book from those who comment on my blogs. Winner’s choice! Tell your friends.
I enjoyed reading your answers, Tricia, and can relate to some – like feeling my babies kick, the smell of crayons, etc.
Your book choices were great; I need to read some of them. I just thought of one that had a tremendous impact on my life recently, and that was “Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire” by Jim Cymbala.
Oh yes, my babies kicking!! How could I not put that down? Or hearing their heartbeats for the first time?
I think The Hiding Place was one of the most profound books I have ever read.
