Bible Review: Under the Sea Holy Bible

The  Under the Sea Holy Bible, NIrV  is a perfect gift for children ages 6 to 10. Themes of underwater fun and sparkling fish grace the interior of this wonderful children’s Bible. The outside is covered in foil and sparkle. The interior has color inserts featuring whimsical underwater scenes with themes of God’s care and love for each of us and all of creation. My Review: This Bible is sure to catch your eye!  Reminds me of "Finding Nemo!  So if you have some fish lovers then this might be the Bible for them.   This bible suggests it is for 6-10 year old's but I think it might be a bit challenging for 6 year old's.   It is the NIRV- new International Reader's Version so language is pretty easy to understand.   Through out the book there are surprise pages that are bright and eye catching.   I found two that I really loved so I took a picture to show you:   The first one is talking about prayer and using your five finge...

Book Review: "Paul Meets Jesus"

Book Description Discover how Paul, once a man who did not believe in Jesus, became one of the most outspoken followers of Christ in this level 2 I Can Read, written in the tradition of the bestselling NIV Adventure Bible. My Review: This level 2 easy reader book, "Paul Meets Jesus" is an easy to read story discussing when Paul meets Jesus.  The transformation that that  occurred  with Saul to Paul is one of my favorite Biblical stories.  I love seeing how a man who hurt  Christians  finally has a God encounter and his heart is transformed.   I love to pray dangerous prayers with my children and this story led us to pray for more people to have a God encounter and have hearts transformed just like Paul's 180 turn around.   I love the easy reader series.   My daughter is 8 and is a great reader and as she read this book she used many different voices so it was adorable.   The pictures are eye catching and bright. ...

How to Create A Healthy Household

A sudden inclination towards promoting a healthy lifestyle goes beyond going to the gym. If you think about it, most of our hours are spent at home where we can be tempted by the sweet goodies shelved away in our pantries. It is therefore important to keep a clean and healthy home. Not only for yourself but to set a positive and active message to our kids. Here are some tips to encourage healthy living in your home: First and foremost start off by cleaning out your pantry. Scrap away that opened bag of potato chips and the leftover pizza from last night. Empty out the flat bottle of coke that your child wings for every night during dinner. Make vegetables and fruit look appetizing to encourage kids. Kids are very attracted to colorful things. Instead of ice-cream for dessert, have a fun frozen snack, such as a fruit Popsicle stick. Who said a bar fridge was only used for alcohol?  Blend a guilt-free freshly squeezed  juice. Have a selection of flavors sto...

Eternal Salvation Review and Giveaway

With Easter right around the corner this movie is sure to spike some interest!  Eternal Salvation is a Dove Award winning movie that will capture your heart.   The story has many great elements that will sure to make you smile, teary eyed, or even giggle.  I think my favorite part would have been watching the main character interact with his christian friend.   It really showcased what a good discipleship relationship looks like!   Sometimes as a christian we do give of ourselves, or time and energy to those who do not know Christ yet.   It is a tough job but worth it when you see God transform the life and use you to be the helper!   You never know what to expect with lower budget film.   This one had me scratching my head on a couple of the actors acting ability but the leading male role did a fantastic job!   I loved how he really portrayed someone with medical problems!   There was also a scene that was meant to be eye ope...
