Proverbs 23:6-7

Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats: For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and rink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.

Favorite Book Friday

I Can Only Imagine by Bart Millard of MercyMe with Robert Noland nonfiction. What an inspiring story. I heard the song a number of years ago, and it launched me into my love of Christian music. I own several CDs and listen to K-LOVE, my radio station of choice. A keeper.

Favorite Book Friday

Carla Capshaw's three-book series, "The Gladiator," "The Protector," and "The Champion." Inspirational Historical Romance, set in Roman AD. This one is in AD 84. I've never been a particular fan for this time period, but Carla tells wonderful stories, and the details are fascinating. I enjoy her books.

Favorite Book Friday

"The Princess Bride" by William Goldman. I was one of those who saw the movie first, and I've lost count of the number of times I've watched it, one of my all-time favorites. I was nervous about reading the book. Would it live up to my expectations? It was worth the read, and I'd recommend it to anyone.
