I’m not sure I would ever have bought this, mostly because it never crossed my radar. It came in a care package from our church.I’ve read Exodus a time or three - on my own, as part of a class, and general bible studies. I never really gave much thought about how the leaders would feel at ground zer...
The Reading Perusals of Rose Summers
Quick review for a progressive read. I read this over the course of a week, and it feels like I finished a marathon (in a good way). "Redeeming Love" came as a recommended read to me and it's my first experience reading Francine Rivers. If there's something to be said about her writing, Rives really...

I’m not into reading romance novels, and this is, to my memory, the first I’ve ever read. The only reason I read it was because it was recommended to me. To my surprise, I actually quite enjoyed this book. There were some details I didn't favor, but overall it was a beautiful, brutally honest story ...

The stories I appreciate most are the ones with the lesson, and that's why I truly...

This book and its sequel, Her Daughter's Dream, have amazing potential. Five generations of women spanning the 20th century, their goals, hardships, loves, and faith. It sounds exactly like the kind of story I would enjoy. Francine Rivers is a competent writer who excels at realistically portraying ...

Una bazofia machista y asquerosamente ridícula , además de aburrida y ofensiva para las mujeres . Un asco . Leí la mitad entera y después fui salteando para ver si el mensaje inicial cambiaba .. no fue así , claro esta . No suelo ser tan cruda con los libros ; no me gusta insultar a menos que la no...

i love the story so much. it gives so much hope. it's about love and forgiveness and really finding what your purpose in life really is. Michael doesn't just talk about God's love. He demonstrated it.It's inspiring. How really God can heal and restore the broken.
