Happy Leap Year! Here are the books I read this month. This month I only had two but both were really good!
This book looks at how we can bring living life with Jesus into loving and caring for our neighbor through a political lens. I am overly simplifying her book but how she looks at life with Jesus and spiritual formation and spiritual disciplines and how those not only effect us personally, but corporately as a body of believers and how we can take that to benefit our neighbors in the name of Christ. It is so good and I really think every Christ follower should read and have the opportunity to reflect on. So many good thought provoking topics that Kit and I have loved discussing.
This simple book is the third that I have read by this author. I love her take on making a home and the gratitude that comes with living full lives with less junk. Easy read and I loved her photographs and ideas.
I have been a fan of SARK since the early 90's and it was fun to pull out this old favorite for an easy read with creative inspiration!
I have recently been going through our home and decluttering and pulling things out that I haven't used. This book was a fun one because it unpacks the Danish way of life called "Hygge". Hygge, in it's most simple definition is:
creating a warm atmosphere and enjoying the good things in life with good people.
I love the idea of creating a home with this idea in mind. I also really enjoyed learning about what the author has learned through his work at the Happiness Research Institute and he applies that to daily life. I really enjoyed this very simple read. I also want to take a trip to Denmark...❤︎
I am new to this author and I really enjoyed her writing. This book is a novel about a family and the generational legacy and stories of families, and in this case, a blended family. I always enjoy when characters are developed and you find yourself routing for some characters and strongly disliking others. I love stories with twists and revelations that bring characters together. I really enjoyed it! I am looking forward to reading more from this author!
