My opinion on books I am curently reading
I couldn’t put down this book. A Place Called Blessing by John Trent is both heartwarming and inspirational. The story is engaging from beginning to end.

I didn’t see the movie Soul Surfer, but my friend lend me the book.
Bethany tells her true story of losing her arm in a shark attack while she was surfing, and how she came back to continue to pursue her dream as a professional surfer. Her story is very inspiration to remind us that no matter what you’ve lost, don’t give up on living. Have courage to overcome your fears, then discover and live out God’s plan for you.

My friend Bonnie lend me this booklet, “An Introduction to the Mainland Chinese Soul”. It is insightful and gives a clear picture of the Chinese way of thinking and how it affects their receptivity to the gospel.
The best parts are the stories of individuals that reveal how Chinese handles life and the gospel.
We watched The Lightning Thief on Netflix, it was quite entertaining. Since I had not read the Percy Jackson books, I decided to get them from the library.
The Sea Monsters is book 2 of the series. The story line is clever and intriguing, but it’s written at about a 4th grade level, not much style but it gets the point across.
Same Life, New Story by Jan Silvious has the subtitle “Change Your Perspective to Change Your Life”. It is indeed a good book for women who are going through difficult circumstances and need encouragement to change. The book is also said to be a Bible study. But it’s not a study guide as I expected. It’s more just a book with discussion questions.
