My Finds This Week:

 ”SIN BOLDLY: A Field Guide for Grace” by Cathleen Falsani

Award-winning author and columnist Cathleen Falsani says, “People regularly ask me why I believe in God. The simple answer … is grace.” In SIN BOLDLY: A Field Guide to Grace, Falsani explores the meaning and experience of grace through story and song, quotes and photos. ((Found at FaithfulReader.com))

 ”The Purse-uit of Holiness: Learning to Imitate the Master Designer” by Rhonda Rhea

Every woman can relate to the endless search for the perfect purse. And Rhonda Rhea knows they are also on a constant lookout for the perfect spiritual life as well. With a sharp wit and keen insight, Rhea takes women into an in-depth but always entertaining study of 1 Peter 1:15-16. Now, any woman who loves to laugh and who longs to know God in a closer, sweeter way need shop no further than THE PURSE-UIT OF HOLINESS. ((Found at FaithfulReader.com))

 ”Messy Faith: Daring to Live By Grace” by A. J. Gregory

While most of us trudge toward the cross with the best intentions, at times our lives just don’t pan out the way we’ve planned. MESSY FAITH addresses the muddled adventure that we call “working out our salvation.” It is being sure and unsure, whole and broken, warring, losing and winning. It is being right and being wrong and having no clue, but believing anyway. And it is trusting in God to perfect the final product of our flawed, human lives. ((Found at FaithfulReader.com))

    If anyone has *She Is Too Fond Of Books* bookmarked, would you please check the address. I’ve moved to a self-hosted site, so my URL no longer has “wordpress” in it, it’s just http://www.sheIsTooFondOfBooks.com thanks! Enjoy the weekend :)

  6. My Friday Finds are here.

  7. My Friday Find is here.

  8. While all of yours look very interesting, the first and third ones on the subject of grace are the ones that probably appeal to me the most especially the third one, because I don’t think any of our faith, no matter what our religion, but maybe especially Christian, is clean-cut.

    That said, my Friday Finds aren’t quite as holy as yours. :) Not that they’re evil either. Just well, here they are.

  9. I haven’t forgotten, but just haven’t ‘found’ any books for a while. I’m really, really concentrating on my own shelves and reading one book at a time.

Please be patient if your comment doesn't show up right away... I will 'release' it as soon as I can. Thanks for your thoughts! ~MizB
