The One Year Holy Land Moments Devotional Review


**Tyndale House Publishers has provided me with a complimentary copy of this book for the purposes of reviewing it, these opinions are my own.****

It has been a long time since I last blogged. There have been many season changed in 2013, I have chosen for this rocky season to be filled with God up front and fully instead of getting frustrated and taking it into my own hands and eventually giving it to Him. I think thats the way he likes it too!

As part of that journey, I am seeking His face and trying to learn more by reading amazing theologian and christian womens books. The most recent read through I have done, and will start doing as a daily devotional on my birthday! is," The One Year Holy Land Moments Devotional," by Rabbi Yechiel Echstein and Dr. Tremper Longman III. 


The subtitle piece explains why I REALLY wanted to get to review and read this book, " Inspiring Reflections on Scripture from a Jewish Rabbi and a Christian Theologian." 
When I was in high school I was a part of PALS (Peer Assistance and Leadership, my group basically describes this pairing: a jew, a mormon, a catholic, baptist and non church goer. The one thing we could all agree on was that someone elses view on a writing helps us see a different side of our own beliefs. 

This book is very thorough on including bible references and has a sabbath/ 7th day reflection days. Includes indexing if you would like to jump around and follow through the bible.

LIFE: Camp

I have had an awful lot of un published blogs lately. These blogs come from deep routed feelings that have surfaced this year due to one thing or another. Maybe some day these blogs will be unearthed but for today, this blog needed to be written while it was still raw.  I have very vague memories of third or forth grade summer camp at Alto Frio, where I met Nana Pudding ( a christian puppet) and went pogging for the first time in a river. Summer after sixth grade,  I got in church vans and headed to Louisiana for the first time to attend Student Life Camp, then proceeded to go to Angelo State University and Glorieta New Mexico a few times. I spent time serving during spring breaks at Riverbend Retreat Center which lead to an internship over the summer. The week that "Curtis" and I first really got to know each other, we were at Glorieta for Centrifuge camp.  Camp is a special place for me. Camp is a happy place for me.  In 2018, I was able to experience camp through ...

LIFE: The Thing I was Promised I Could Not Do

I feel like every post I make, I am finding more of my voice again. I never in my life felt like I would have a voice to share about some of the more body related posts that I have made, but here I am to share about another personal body part- lol! I realized I had not shared about my breast feeding journey and I feel like it is something that might help someone. So the journey starts on a very cold day in January 2018. As I have noted in previous blogs, I had a c-section which was not 100 percent my goal but 100 percent perfect in every way. I was told going into my c-section that it may take a little longer for my milk to fully come in but it was not going to be impossible. So when my little guy was able to join me in the room we would be in, we went to work. I was still very medicated and he made his wiggly way to the source. I knew not much was coming but he was happy at the end of each feeding attempt, but his blood sugar was low and the nurses wanted me to switch to formula and w...
