Sometimes it’s a couple of days or even weeks before I dig through the pre-releases in my “to be reviewed” pile to find the right mood music. However, in the case of Andrew Peterson’s latest, Light for the Lost Boy, I gave a giddy shout and popped the album in my vehicle’s CD player asContinue reading “Music Review: Light for the Lost Boy by Andrew Peterson”

Redeemed by DaySpring
When I signed up to to review one of DaySpring’s (in)spired deals for April, I didn’t plan on posting my review on the very last day of the month, a week later than requested by the powers that be. I didn’t know that my foot would be rockin’ a cam boot or that my heartContinue reading “Redeemed by DaySpring”
Book Review:: You’re Already Amazing by Holley Gerth
Since Holley Gerth writes for DaySpring cards (and co-founded (in)courage) it seems cliché to say that her book, You’re Already Amazing, is like receiving an unexpected greeting card saturated with wisdom and thoughtfulness only a dear friend could write. But that’s exactly what reading You’re Already Amazing is like! Gerth engaged me with her girlfriendContinue reading “Book Review:: You’re Already Amazing by Holley Gerth”
Starfield triumphantly returns with THE KINGDOM
Right now, I’m listening to Starfield’s brand spankin’ new album, The Kingdom, which just happens to release today! Even though Starfield’s lead man, Tim Neufield, emailed me about it weeks ago, you know how I am—behind in all things. (Though I’m sure that Tim can share in the blame. Touring, spending time with his family…whatContinue reading “Starfield triumphantly returns with THE KINGDOM”
FIRST Wild Card Tour + Review: Beauty Will Save the World by Brian Zahnd
Amy’s Take: Beauty Will Save the World is about how the intrinsic message of the Gospel is beautiful. Author Brian Zahnd says that the Jews in Jesus’ time expected a benevolent ruler who would overthrow Roman oppression, but instead they got a God-man who died on a tree (and rose again). To the Jewish people,Continue reading “FIRST Wild Card Tour + Review: Beauty Will Save the World by Brian Zahnd”
Cards Still Make a Difference & Giveaway!
{More info on these cards} We have more excuses than ever not to send cards for birthdays, anniversaries, and other special occasions: The price of stamps just increased. Again. Cards aren’t eco-friendly (even though they can be recycled and are often made out of recycled materials). And, of course, there just isn’t enough time toContinue reading “Cards Still Make a Difference & Giveaway!”
Amy’s Christmas Playlist
Every year I make an iTunes playlist of my favorite Christmas songs–some have been on the album every year since its inception, while others are happy new editions. There are several versions of my playlist before choosing the 20 or so songs that will fit on a CD for the enjoyment of my friends andContinue reading “Amy’s Christmas Playlist”
Friday Faves: Snow Globe Living Edition
I’ve been going back and forth on bringing back Friday Faves. Am I ready? What if I do it this Friday and not next Friday? I mean, do I even have any readers left besides my mother? Then I thought, if you write it, they will come. So I fooled around on Facebook for aContinue reading “Friday Faves: Snow Globe Living Edition”
Review: The Names of God Bible
I never read J.B. Phillips classic book, Your God Is Too Small, but I’ve always liked the title. Using the illustration of “putting God in a box,” Phillips says that we as humans try to limit an infinite God with our finite minds. One of the ways we “limit” God is by failing to understandContinue reading “Review: The Names of God Bible”
GIVEAWAY!!! Jason Gray’s “Remind Me Who I Am” is #1 on iTunes!
Wednesdays are killer, right? Last weekend is a distant memory and this weekend seems like it will never arrive. And to make matters worse, we’re in the holiday season—shopping, decorating, baking, avoiding Salvation Army bell ringers. I love the Salvation Army and all they do, but I could do without the bell ringers. I wishContinue reading “GIVEAWAY!!! Jason Gray’s “Remind Me Who I Am” is #1 on iTunes!”
