Trusting God: Free Christian Audiobook

This month's free Christian audiobook from christianaudio.com is Trusting God by Jerry Bridges.  Enjoy your free download by clicking the image below.  When you get there scroll down a little bit and follow the instructions under the section Free Audiobook Download For The Month.  

Here's a snippet about the book taken from the christianaudio.com website:

When unexpected situations arise that appear unjust, irrational, or even dreadful, we feel confused and frustrated. And before long, we begin to doubt God's concern for us or His control over our lives. Adversity is hard to endure and can even be harder to understand. If God were really in control, why would He allow the tragic auto accident or crucial job loss? How could He permit cancer in a loved one or the death of a child?

No excuses to growing in Christ this year.  This audiobook is free and every month christianaudio.com gives a free download. Make a commitment to develop your Christian life by listening to these audio books each month.  Enjoy!

Free Christian Audiobook for October: Think [CLOSED]

Every month Christianaudio.com gives away a free audiobook download. This month's audiobook download is Think by John Piper.

From the Christianaudio.com site - John Piper’s newest book will help Christians think about thinking. Focusing on the life of the mind helps us to know God better, love him more, and care for the world. Along with an emphasis on emotions and the experience of God, we also need to practice careful thinking about God. Piper contends that “thinking is indispensable on the path to passion for God.” ... Thinking carefully about God fuels passion and affections for God. Likewise, Christ-exalting emotion leads to disciplined thinking. Readers will be reminded that “the mind serves to know the truth that fuels the fires of the heart.”

Click on the image of the book above to get your free download. If you don't have an account with them all you need to do is sign up for one. There is no obligation to purchase and it is free to sign up. We need to be fed with spiritual food that draws us into closer relationship with God.

Go get your free Christian audiobook.

It's Party Time! With A Giveaway [CLOSED]

THIS POST IS A STICKY POST TILL APRIL 17.  SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE RECENT POSTS.

It's that time again! Time to PARTY!!!

If you're looking to make some new friends, read some new blogs, have your blog noticed, win some great prizes or just want to party then the Ultimate Blog Party hosted by 5minutesformom.com is for you. It's gonna be a blast! And the great thing is you don't even need to have a blog to participate. Twitterers, Facebookers, anyone can participate. There are cool prizes to be won and lots of people to meet.

To all of you visiting from the Ultimate Blog Party, WELCOME! to my corner of the blogosphere. I am first and foremost a Christian(a believer, follower and disciple of Jesus Christ), secondly I am a wife and then a mother. I became a Christian at age 19. Married my husband in 2001 when I was 28. Moved to New Orleans to be with him while he finished seminary. Moved to St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands in 2003 to pastor a church there(my husband doing the pastoring of course(smile)). Moved back home to Dominica in October 2007. We have 2 boys, Judah 7yrs and Jeremiah 6yrs. We always get asked if they are twins. They have the same birthday, September 16 but different years. My husband likes to call it strategic planning(by God of course).

I love reading, blogging and minstering to ladies of all ages. I am vegetarian and very passionate about raw foods and natural health. I love taking pictures. I love nature and I love travelling. I've been to Antigua, Barbados, St. Lucia, St. Kitts, St. Maarten, St. Thomas, Trinidad, St. Croix, St. John, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, New Jersey, New York, Louisiana and Puerto Rico. I have lived in several different places - New Orleans, Orlando, New York, St. Thomas and of course my homeland Dominica.

I am an introvert by nature slowly being converted by my extrovert of a husband. I have a passion to see young ladies thrive and I teach a young adults Sunday School class at church whenever my husband and I are not off preaching where the Lord opens doors of opportunities. I am a pastor's wife and I homeschool our two boys as well. I am also one of the moderators of the Natural HS Mommas group on The Homeschool Lounge and operate the Fruitful Vine Page on Facebook. I enjoy tweeting and my twitter id is Fruitfulvine2.

There you have it. That's quite a bit about me. Feel free to look around and come back after the party to read up on past posts and in the spirit of this great blog party hosted by 5minutesformom.com, I'm giving away a free copy of my newly published never before released e-book called INSANELY SIMPLE!

Have a blessed day and Happy Partying!
