Good Summer Reads, cont.

It is officially Summer!!  As we continue our Monday list of good summer reads, we hope you may find a treasure to enjoy.  If you are just joining our Monday feature, here is where we began our adventure.  This week, we are highlighting the new additions to the Women's Life Library.  Yes, in case you were unaware, the Women's Life Office has a small library of books that may be checked out, (and we often receive new releases)!  A complete list of our books are listed on LibraryThing.com.

We are listing a few of our more recent additions and we hope to see you soon.  Come by and check out a book or two, maybe even some DVDs or CDs (yes CDs)... but no tapes....  

Wonderstruck: Awaken to the Nearness of God (DVD Leader Kit)
 by Margaret Feinberg

Off the back cover:  In Wonderstruck, Margaret Feinberg invites you to toss back the covers, climb out of bed, and drink in the fullness of life.  Come learn how to recognize the presence of God in the midst of your  routine, unearth extraordinary moments on ordinary days, identify what's holding you back in prayer, and discover peace in knowing you're wildly loved.

I Will Carry You: The Sacred Dance of Grief and Joy 
by Angie Smith

Off the back cover:  This is a beautiful and tender book that would touch any woman's heart, no matter her age or realm of experience.  It is about a relationship so intimate with God that it carves a safe place for crises of faith, for faith proved genuine and for divine callings willed, sealed, and fulfilled.  Yes, this is one mother's moving story.  This one mother also happens to be a true writer.  We will hear more from her.-Beth Moore

Emily Post's Etiquette (Revised) 
by Peggy Post 

Anyone been invited to this summer's most anticpated soiree’, wedding, or any other fun/fancy event?  This book has more information about manners than what your mom could've taught you!  The weight of the book would keep it from being one you take to the beach, however, curled up on the couch, you can read up on proper event etiquette, how to behave well on Facebook, and a whole lot more.

Devotions from the Beth Moore Library, CD, Volume II  
by Beth Moore

Ok, so you’re not really able to read this, since this is a CD, but if you have a lengthy drive to visit family, popping in some Beth Moore devotions may encourage you when you’re not singing with the radio.

Gideon: Your weakness. God's strength. (DVD Leader Kit)
by Priscilla Shirer

Grab some girlfriends and watch this 7 week study along with reading about Gideon…it’s better than anything on TV right now.  It was also one of Denise's favorite picks for summer reads.  Read what Denise had to say about this one here .

We hope these suggestions will give you some options for enjoying the long days of summer.  Come by our office and check out a book; we have a lot more than what you saw today!  As always, leave us any of your favorite reads in the comments below!!
