When Love Ends and the Ice Cream Carton is Empty by Jackie M. Johnson
When Love Ends and the Ice Cream Carton is Empty by Jackie M. Johnson
About The Book:
Losing a hope-filled dating relationship is a stressful and painful event. And when it seems to occur again, again, and again, is Ben & Jerry the only refuge for a Christian single?
As one who has walked this road before, author Jackie Johnson says an emphatic “no!”
While most books for singles tell readers how to get the next guy, When Love Ends and the Ice Cream Carton is Empty encourages a healthy healing process. Practical and biblical based, each chapter guides the reader through a metaphorical day of restoration. Twilight recognizes and deals with endings, night validates and grieves the loss, dawn awakens hope, and day is the new beginning based on the solid assurance of Christ.
Chapters conclude with discussions questions for individual or group study, helpful Bible verses, and a prayer.

Free Book – The Radical Question by David Platt
Free Book – The Radical Question by David Platt
From WaterBrook Multnomah:
It’s easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily…
But who do you know who lives like that? Do you?

Grab Bag Blog Tour – Secrets by Robin Jones Gunn & The Golden Cross by Angela Elwell Hunt
I was given a unique opportunity to be a part of this “Grab Bag Book Tour” from Blogging for Books, presented by Multnomah Books, a division of Random House publishing. Those who participated in this book tour would get 2 randomly selected books to review. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the two books that I received were. What surprised me most was that I didn’t realize I was receiving two Christian titles! I’m not a Christian, so I wasn’t sure I would appreciate these books as much as I did. I enjoyed them greatly though!
