What About Coffee, Cookies and a Good Book? -and a little gift-
30.9.10
There are some books I like to read and re-read several times, big books and little books, all kinds of books; Theology books (my favorite ones) and books about family, homeschooling, homemaking, and being a Christian woman are the ones I most enjoy.
I have been thinking that I want to read again this book, The Fruit of Her Hands. Respect and the Christian Woman, by Nancy Wilson. Every time I read it, I am blessed and renewed. I love to go through all my notes and jot new ones.
This time, however, I want to invite you to read along and then bring your cup of coffee or tea, some cookies or scones (Petra...) and join the conversation every Tuesday (4 Tuesdays).
This would be our schedule:
Tuesday, October 12, Chapters 1 and 2
Tuesday, October 19, Chapters 3 and 4
Tuesday, October 26, Chapters 5 and 6
Tuesday, November 2, Chapters 7 and 8
If you don't have the book, you can order it through Canon Press, Amazon, and Monergism. I am pretty sure that if you decide to order it this weekend, you will have plenty of time to read the first two chapters before October 12.
If you don't have the book, and would like to join me, I will be giving away one book (only USA and Canada); just leave your name and contact information and I will let you know this coming Saturday who the winner is. (I feel so odd doing this, I have never done it before!) The invitation to the giveaway will be closed Friday, October 1st before midnight ET.
Well I must go now, have a most joyous day!

Hi Becky,
I'd like to read along, it would be a nice way to get to know you and other sisters of like mind.
I don't own the book, so I would love to enter your giveaway. How fun is that! You can contact me on facebook if I win!

Thanks Becky- I have the book - read it maybe 7 years ago or so .... that would be a great goal for me... Thanks for the challenge! Sorry I have missed all your calls - I really have been gone, not just ignoring the phone - promise! :) We are thinking of some dates and have a thought we would love to propose first to Dad (Mark) and then to you all! Mark is out of town but will return Sunday. Love you much, think of you often, appreciate how often you point your friends to Him. I am working very hard to keep up with all the school - loving it, except for the part that prevents me from nurturing my friendships!!
love,
Teri
