Shades of Blue

I have never read Christian fiction, and I must say that I will be reading more Karen Kingsbury. This is the story of a young woman who is dealing with a decision she made many years ago. It was thought provoking. I don't want to write too much about it and give away what the issue was. Let's say that I do know people who have been through this situation. This book is a pretty true to life sort of book. This issue happens to people who you don't expect it from. I loved the ending and Karen really showed her characters as true Christians, not just people who put on the front of being a true Christian. Loved this one!

A Civilization of Love

I felt lead to read this book recently. Quite honestly there are a few people that I encounter quite regularly that I am not feeling very loving towards. This book was great. The book was written by the Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus. He often referenced Pope John Paul II and occasionally Pope Benedict XVI. This was very thought provoking when he discussed globalization. It has made me really think about what I am personally doing to share Christ's love. Everyday I need to be sure that I am living my life in a Godly way. I pray that I can continue to walk with Jesus and show my love. I can just feel the difference already!
