Growing Slow Bible Study by Jennifer Dukes Lee

This is a review for the Growing Slow Bible study that is a companion bible study for the Growing Slow book by Jennifer Dukes Lee. I have not read the book, but I have taken a look at the bible study and wanted to share what I liked about it with you.

This is a six-week study, you can use the book by yourself or with a group. Here's what I like about it, it's straightforward enough that anyone can pick it up and find some encouragement but it's also got enough open-ended questions that those who have been in studies for a long time can grow, too. Not having read the book doesn't detract from the study but it does increase the desire to read the book to explore the ideas presented a little more in-depth. I used the Kindle version of the book for review purposes, if you do the same, I'd recommend having a journal available to be able to write down and capture the ideas and scriptures that are in the study.

Overall, I'd recommend this study for anyone who feels like they're always in a hurry and wants to slow down as well as for anyone that feels like life is moving way too slow and needs some encouragement in the midst of growing slowly.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley for the purpose of review. I'm never required to say good things but I'm always thankful when I can.

Stories from the Kitchen: Taste and See

I celebrated my birthday last weekend. It was wonderful and the leftovers left me with a question or two. Find out what they are and how I'm currently answering them in this week's podcast.

Tasty Tuesday: Roasted Broccoli

I ran across this recipe on Pinterest the other day that was labeled " The Best Broccoli Of Your Life. " I normally either steam our broccoli in the microwave or saute it with olive oil and red pepper flakes on the stove top. I decided this would be something to try. I did the salt, pepper and olive oil part of the recipe. I didn't have the majority of the other ingredients. In fact, all I had was a little bit of Parmesan It was wonderful. Not the best broccoli of my life, but honestly, it was pretty close. And if I had the lemon juice and all that jazz, it may very well be the best. What have you been eating lately?

Sweet Caroline by Kelda Poynot

First off, my copy of Sweet Caroline (aff link) is not a gifted review book, I spent my well earned Amazon No-Rush Rewards money on this book. Second of all, this is not my standard close door kind of romance. Third of all, this is a really fun read. Caroline is a hard working young lady that is doing all that she can to make ends meet and to get her graduate degree. Part of that work is renting out the room above her garage. When she answers the phone of an unknown number, believing it's a future tenant, she has no idea how much her life is about to change. The young man on the other end of that call, Hashim, is tall, dark, and mysterious in all the right ways. The story quickly moves from the girl next door falling for a stranger to a fight for their lives. And in true real life fashion, those fights aren't just with external enemies but the ones we carry within. It's an entertaining story of Caroline and Hashim, discovering their love for each other and fighting to
