Still in the Game by Devon Still

-
Still in the Game Finding the Faith to Handle Life's Biggest Challenges. by Devon Still is a nonfiction sports book about Devon's life. Devon   was born to very supportive  parents.  They  encouraged him to  go far in life.  He   faced one  challenge in life after another.  He   did well in football and basketball.  He   had several   body injuries but  kept moving forward in life.  He   teaches  and challenges the reader to move forward   when they face obstacles  daily and not give up. His life is  very inspiring. This book will  show  teenagers what happens when you make  good vs bad choices . It  will encourage them to think  to choose the best God honoring decisions in life.  He   became an NFL  star.   He did all He could to  support his  daughter Leah  in her  fight  against cancer.   He   went the  extra mile to show his  daughter how much He  wanted to be there for her. He supported her  fight when He  was in the NFL.  It is a very moving book .  It would be excellent to mentor  for adults  and  youth in how to fight  and move  beyond obstacles. He   moves  beyond himself to make Jesus first in his life.   I commend his character and  dedication to his wife and daughter and   to be an inspiration to many families undergoing   cancer treatment.  He   saw how difficult  the fight is for cancer  patients.    Thank you to  the publisher and netgalley for making this book available  to me to read and review.  I will share my review with  Amazon, my blog, facebook,  for pastors, friends, Goodreads.

 Tell Me the Stories of Jesus  is  by Albert Mohler. Al Mohler  is the president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He  hosts   The Briefing and "Thinking in Public".  This  book is a Christian living book.  The parables  were written  with an illustration. Jesus wanted  the audience  to think about what  He  was   saying  and then  move  to  recollect   on the deeper meaning  within the parables.  He  wanted the audience   to think  about where their heart is and to apply  the parables  to their life.  If the meaning is given in a straight forward way  it can be easy  to not think about your life because  the meaning  is given  to the audience and they do not have to pause and think  where Jesus is coming from.  The parables are creative. . This book gives great background  for each of the parables. It is very personable.  This book is well written.  It  is a great book for any Christian and for  any pastor. Thank you for netgalley , the publisher and the author f

Holding on When You Want to Let Go by Sheila Walsh

-
  #Holding on When You Want to Let Go# by Sheila Walsh is a Christian living book. Sheila is an author, Bible teacher and television host. She is the cohost of Life Today. She has written many practical books. She wants to make the Bible practical and personal. She shares her heart and life difficulties when she writes. I find her personal stories so real and so easy to connect with. Sheila shares about her very difficult times and how we can find that Jesus can help us and meet us where we are at in our times of need. She encourages us to hold on to Jesus and draw close to Him so He can draw near to us. She encourages us to pray and read our Bibles during times of difficulty. The book is well written and a huge help during times of difficulty. Sheila wrote a Bible study guide to go with #Holing On When You Want to Let Go#. The book would be good for a Women's Bible study. I commend Sheila for writing this book and sharing her heart to others who might need it. Thank you to the pub
