In this warm and wise book, Sally invites you to experience for yourself what
happens when you trust God to lead you into a life of anticipation, passion, and
purpose.
Weaving biblical insights with real-life stories that reflect every Christian woman's deepest longings, Dancing with My Father reveals how any woman, in any circumstance, can daily live in beauty and grace, joy and peace.
(Sounds perfect, right?!)
What would cause an eighteen-year-old senior class president and homecoming
queen from Nashville, Tennessee, to disobey and disappoint her parents by
forgoing college, break her little brother’s heart, lose all but a handful of
her friends (because they think she has gone off the deep end), and break up
with the love of her life, all so she could move to Uganda, where she knew only
one person and didn’t even speak the language?
A passion to follow Jesus.
Katie Davis left over Christmas break of her senior year for a short mission trip to Uganda and her life was turned completely inside out. She found herself so moved by the people of Uganda and the needs she saw that she knew her calling was to return and care for them. Katie, a charismatic and articulate young woman, is in the process of adopting thirteen children in Uganda and has established a ministry, Amazima, that feeds and sends hundreds more to school while teaching them the Word of Jesus Christ.
Kisses from Katie invites readers on a journey of radical love down the red dirt roads of Uganda. You’ll laugh and cry with Katie as she follows Jesus into the impossible and finds joy and beauty beneath the dust. Katie and her children delight in saying yes to the people God places in front of them and challenge readers to do the same, changing the world one person at a time.
(I'm probably most excited about this one!)
(Um, this book is totally not me. Most of all, because it's fiction. However, after reading various reviews, I thought I'd give it a try and go for something light-hearted, less-weighty, and fun!)
So, anything good you've read lately? I'd love to hear about it!

A “cheerfully engaging” novel for anyone who’s ever asked herself, “How
did I get here?”
Alice Love is twenty-nine, crazy about her husband, and pregnant with her
first child.
So imagine Alice’s surprise when she comes to on the floor of a gym (a gym!
She HATES the gym) and is whisked off to the hospital where she discovers the
honeymoon is truly over — she’s getting divorced, , she has three kids, and
she’s actually 39 years old. Alice must reconstruct the events of a lost decade,
and find out whether it’s possible to reconstruct her life at the same time. She
has to figure out why her sister hardly talks to her, and how is it that she’s
become one of those super skinny moms with really expensive clothes. Ultimately,
Alice must discover whether forgetting is a blessing or a curse, and whether
it’s possible to start over…
