Three Hearts Movie Review

I have just reviewed another book for booksneeze.com.



5.0 out of 5 stars Three Hearts Will Enlarge Your Heart, September 27, 2012
This review is from: Three Hearts (DVD)
This movie is perhaps the most riveting of any that I have seen in recent years. It is the story of Cassie, granddaughter of the great Billy Graham, and her quest to understand the plight of children in third world countries. Her journey to Mongolia turned out to have far more of an impact on her than on those she was there to help. As she collaborated to bring medically fragile children to the U.S. for heart surgery, her own heart became enlarged with compassion for the children, their families, and the host families in the U.S. You will laugh and cry, celebrate the miracles, and grow in your own desire to help those in need.
The review can be found at amazon.com, as well.

Book Review: The Coming Revolution

Booksneeze.com provided me with a complimentary copy of "The Coming Revolution", subtitled "Signs From America's Past That Signal Our Nation's Future"

Dr. Richard Lee is the Pastor of a large church in Atlanta, and well versed in American history and the Christian faith of our forefathers who drafted the U.S. Constitution. Throughout this book, Dr. Lee writes with compelling evidence of a country that was once great but is now falling from within.

Dr. Lee urges Bible believing Christians to take a stand and get involved with the revolution beginning to spread across the land. He states the positive impact and changes being wrought by the Tea Party Revolution and others who are speaking out and demanding a reversal of liberal policies. He clearly shows that America, once great and fighting to be free from tyranny outside of our borders, is now a country crumbling under the corrupt government within our borders.

The content of this book is controversial and is sure to enrage the liberals, while at the same time encourage the conservatives of this country. It is a call to action, intended to further the revolution that has started, to take back the moral fabric of this great country.

Dr. Lee systematically exposes the breakdown of the moral fiber of our country, founded solely on Biblical principles back in 1776. Two institutions in particular are highlighted as being pivotal in the fall of our society, the education system and the destruction of traditional families. Not one to tout his own opinion, Dr. Lee referenced many civilizations over the course of time which have crumbled because of the lack of fortitude in these two institutions, the primary of which is the traditional family unit.

The book is endorsed by Oliver North and Mike Huckabee, amongst other conservatives.

Book Review: Healing is a Choice

I am now writing book reviews for BookSneeze.
Review of "Healing is a Choice" by Steve Arterburn

Steve Arterburn is well known across the country. He hosts a national radio/TV show called "New Life Live", is a bestselling author, and is perhaps best known as the founder of the "Women of Faith" conferences.

This book is a compelling read, which includes a workbook. Steve shares from both a professional and experiential standpoint, ten decisions that will transform your life and ten lies that can prevent you from making them. I was provided a complimentary copy, by BookSneeze. I was captivated by his candidness of the pain in his own life.  As I read, I found myself relating on many levels. I appreciated his blunt approach in talking to the reader about the need to begin to connect with others, to reach out, to share the pain, to seek help, and then to begin to risk again.

Backed up by statistics and his professional work as a counselor, Arterburn maintains his stance that one cannot live an isolated life, telling no one of their pain, and expect to be healed. He repeatedly states the need for living a transparent life, pain and all, in order to allow for others to participate in your healing process.

If you are seeking a comprehensive book that will take you down a path of healing, this is the book for you! Each chapter is designed with a workbook section, to aid you in your journey. You will be challenged in ways that are uncomfortable but necessary, if you have any residual pain in your life. If you are persistent and work through the book, you will be a changed person by the time you complete the book. How long that takes you will depend on how much you can work through and deal with in a given time frame. There are 10 very intensive chapters.
