Constantly Craving

Constantly Craving

How to Make Sense of Always Wanting More

By Marilyn Meberg

Published by: Thomas Nelson

I can overcome my own Constant Cravings... It is a very good book to read. It is very easy to read and follow along. I felt that each chapter was very explained and thorough until this was approached. This book is filled with scripture to back up every point she makes in a way that gently guides us to the source of Life- Jesus. This book has a very good sense of inspiration, its been in and out of my little bookshelves. I would have to say that this is a must read book to everyone.  It was encouraging to have an author address so many aspects where we often feel we're the only ones wanting more! It was a shot of head in me, I want more and it ruin my life. It was terrible. The more I have the more I want. Its just endless... You have to read this now!

Billy Graham in Quotes


Billy Graham in Quotes

By Franklin Graham


Every quote is right on for guidance in living each day. They are written with love and presented so that anyone can find a quote that is appropriate for every day life. "Every graveyard and every cemetery testify that the Bible is true." I love this line, its direct to the point and a shot to head.  A book that stays on my shelf forever. Read this and be inspired. Billy Graham really has met the great and the good, and yet he comes across as a very humble. A book is that prayer and Bible study are the foundation for the Christian life and the way in which we will grow, mature and learn to know God better. There are tons of quotes listed in this book, I highly recommend it!

Pershing


PershingCommander of the Great War

By John Perry


"General of the Armies John Joseph "Black Jack" Pershing, GCB, was a general officer in the United States Army who led the American Expeditionary Forces in World War I." In the First World War, however, Pershing played his part without peer--standing alone in his time as history would have it, and with no one to share the fame. "On 15 July 1948, John Joseph Pershing passed away at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C. Tributes of the greatest men of our time were given him on the days following his death. But men of the Army will always pay tribute to General John J. Pershing. A life such as his is a challenge to his followers in the military profession, and they have accepted that challenge. John Joseph Pershing, soldier and citizen, will live forever in the memory of the men of our victorious country." I found this book very enjoyable especially we Filipinos, i found out that Peshing has a very important contribution on what we are today. This book is part of the Generals Series. Read this book and discover who really John Pershing is. A man with integrity and a man of valor. Generals won't come this best!

Sherman

Sherman

ShermanThe Ruthless Victor (The Generals Series)

By Agostino von Hassell & Ed Breslin
Published by Thomas Nelson



"William Tecumseh Sherman was an American soldier, businessman, educator and author. Sherman was not an abolitionist before the war and, like others of his time and background, he did not believe in "Negro equality." Before the war, Sherman at times even expressed some sympathy with the view of Southern whites that the black race was benefiting from slavery"  this type of book usually have some shards of sympathy in dealing with the person under study, Sherman will have some insights into his military styles. I'm not a pro-war... A great read for someone who wants another view of Sherman and I could see this being a great resource for the older middle school student who needs to research the Civil War or Sherman himself. It gives a lot of insight into what Sherman's life was like from a young age as he just started out making his military career all the way to the battles that ultimately ended the war. I won't recommended the book but I won't also discourage you to read this.

Heaven is for Real Deluxe Edition


Heaven is for Real Deluxe EditionA Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back

By Todd Burpo with Lynn Vincent




I began reading Heaven is for Real, I could not put it down until I finished it. Heaven is for Real! after reading this amazing story, is such a wonderful story to be told to my friends! evident from his recollection, that heaven is a real and a place to be...  Heaven and the spiritual realm.  I loved reading this book.. I both read it in a day! Very comforting and no doubt that Heaven is for Real! The entire story felt like as father trying to buck up his own faith from his child's experience. I enjoyed reading this book so much; it gave me a vision of who God is and the heart he has for His people to know Him and prepare to meet Him.

The Fight of Our Lives


The Fight of Our LivesKnowing the Enemy, Speaking the Truth, and Choosing to Win the War Against Radical Islam

By William Bennett with Seth Leibsohn
Published by Thomas Nelso


"We loved death more than you love life!" That line struck me right there, whats on their mind going on? "Fight Of Our Lives" is a book written to wake up the world to the dangers of Radical Islam. I'm not anti-muslim but, anti-Muslim sentiment might have peaked, there were six times as many incidents of bias against Jews, as there were against Muslims. As William J. Bennett and Seth Leibsohn show, what needs to happen to be sure this never happens again. And its happening now! What the'ye gonna killed for just a video? I understand them but killing is not a solution, violation is not a solution only way we'll escape their eventual fate is to be informed and this book does an excellent job of doing just that. This is not a book intended to detail every mistake, error, and lapse of judgment for radical Islam. Read this and be ready for the fight of our lives!

Surviving Your Serengeti

Surviving Your Serengeti

7 Skills to Master Business and Life

By Stefan Swanepoel

"Surviving Your Serengeti" by Stefan Swanepoel;  is a must read in learning how you deal with your surroundings and the people around you. Using the animals and their characteristics made the information fun and easy to digest,  It also challenges readers to set goals and tackle obstacles using their own personal animal styles. I can't say there is anything wrong with the book since I never received it. If you have not read this book I highly recommend it! Well for me I go for cheetah, fastest land animal, great persistence-- for me it defines me! If you have not read this book I highly recommend it! It doesn't matter if your a business minded person or not. Read this you won't regret this for sure.
