My Thoughts

I LOVE this Explorer Bible Dictionary for Kids! It is truly unique and I could spend hours pouring over it. It might be for kids but it is pretty great for adults too! There are so many charts that are wildly helpful, such as the Judges of Israel. It organizes so many details of the Bible so that you can easily look things up while studying. There is a wonderful picture of the city of Jerusalem that shows you where certain things are located. I am a visual person so being able to see these charts and images are SO helpful in my understanding and also for kiddos! I hope to use this book when teaching Sunday School as well to help them understand certain details. If you have children or teach children in any way, I highly recommend this resource!

My Thoughts

I had never heard of a spiral bound Bible until I discovered this one! It is a bit larger than I had anticipated-it is a very large notebook size. So for me personally, this is not one that I would really want to carry around often. It is perfect for opening on a desk and digging deep into study. Because of the notetaking space you don't need another notepad (unless you REALLY need lots of space). I love the paper, it isn't too thin and it isn't slick so it is perfect for writing on. The font is a good size and the charts and maps are helpful and a great addition. Each book of the Bible has an overview at the start, which I always find helpful. I think with it being spiral bound it has pros and cons. It lays flat and allows you ease in writing. On the flip side, I think it would tear pretty easily if you carried it around many places (without closing it properly) or folded it open in half. Overall I really like this Bible and have been using it at my kitchen table. If you are needing a unique way to take notes and it all be in one place this could be the Bible for you! 

Five Stars.

My Thoughts

This is a film that intrigued me and I very much enjoyed watching. It is a well put together documentary type film of different people discussing their father wounds. I loved hearing different perspectives and experiences that different women have had and also encouragement from Alex Kendrick on what a father is to do. There is a wonderfully strong statement that God is the only Father who can love us how we need to be loved unconditionally. I think it is a well known fact that not having a father figure or having a terrible father figure has a lasting impact on a daughter. It is difficult to understand that we have a Father who loves us when in that situation. I thought the interviews were well put together and overall I found this film to be encouraging and it will create much needed conversation.

My Thoughts

I love all things Little House and was thrilled to find out this film was being released. I visited the Little House site that is in Mansfield, MO a couple of years ago and it was AMAZING. But with this film you get to peek at all of the Little House sites! I didn't even realize you could visit Almanzo's farm in New York until watching this. I also discovered is it all on the original foundation in New York.  I SO enjoyed watching and learning more and hearing from historians who are keeping the history alive. You get to hear from the fans and of course from some of the actors that were in the Little House TV show. This movie talks about it all: the TV show, the books, the fans, the sites, and how special it all is. If you are a fan of any of the above I highly recommend watching. 

Five Stars.

My Thoughts

I went into this movie expecting humor and Christmas cozy vibes. I was also excited to watch this because it was filmed in Breckenridge, CO and that is very close to where I grew up. The setting and snow is perfect. There are a few things that don't add up but that is typical in these types of movies. There are some really fun Christmas decorating scenes that I enjoyed and a couple of really funny parts that I did laugh at. The main gist of this film is the group is expecting a perfect holiday, especially Michelle. There are a few things that throw a wrench in their plans. Michelle's character really made this movie annoying to watch at times. By the end, I knew the point they were getting at, but it still made this movie land as just okay for me. There are mentions of a relationship with God and different conversations about the Bible and what holy means. There is a very subtle faith message that is mainly Jesus loves you and has a plan for your life. God does love us and His plans are much greater than our own but we still have to want to glorify Him in all that we do. So overall this movie does have humor and cozy vibes! It isn't my favorite holiday film but it did make me want to decorate my house for Christmas so I consider that a win.

My Thoughts

I was pleasantly surprised while watching this Easter special. It is perfect for kids while holding to the truth of the Bible. There are a few things that were left out, such as Pilate offering Barabbas instead. I think it is important for these videos not to take the place of the Bible because they simply can't. But I do think they can show children a good visual of the different aspects and stories that are in the Bible. It will create conversations that would hopefully encourage parents and kids to open their Bibles and study deeper.

 Minno has so many shows that I was surprised! I am eager to watch more than just this Easter one. I think it could be well worth the cost to become a member if you are wanting clean content for children.

Overall I recommend checking out this Easter video with your young ones! I found it to be worth the watch!

My Thoughts

This really is a very nice gift set! It comes in a sturdy box that is well packaged in a gift box. While there are many gift sets that you can choose from I was excited to smell this candle! Typically I am not a candle person but since this one is soy and so simple yet pretty I wanted to check it out. It is an interesting combination of scents so I wasn't sure if I would like it but I actually REALLY love how this candle smells! It is so pretty that I really hate to burn it which is also why it makes a great gift! The bracelet is pretty but not as high of quality in my opinion. The gold tag makes it worth wearing and adds a little something to an otherwise pretty basic bracelet. 

All that to say I had no idea Abide from Guideposts sold gift sets and I am pleasantly surprised! It can be challenging to come up with a good gift like this for birthdays, holidays, etc. but you could order one of these and it is pre-wrapped and ready to go! Thoughtful and convenient!

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever: Review & Giveaway!

About the Movie

The Herdman kids are absolutely the worst. They lie, they steal, they bully…and they’ve hijacked the town Christmas pageant. Directed by Dallas Jenkins (“The Chosen”) and based on the international bestseller by Barbara Robinson, THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER follows six siblings who sneak into church searching for snacks and walk away with the lead roles in the town pageant. Grace (Judy Greer) is directing the performance for the very first time; she and her daughter Beth (Molly Belle Wright) and husband Bob (Pete Holmes) are less than amused. But the play’s mischievous stars might unwittingly teach a community the true meaning of Christmas. Featuring Lauren Graham. Screenplay by Ryan Swanson and Platte F. Clark & Darin McDaniel.

My Thoughts

I really enjoyed this movie. I haven't read the book in many years so I hadn't remembered much of the storyline. All of the child actors were excellent and as the story unfolded on screen I was more and more surprised. The details and the script are so good! There is a lot of humor but there is also a lot of heart. So much of this film is real to life. Poverty and judgement and not talking about certain things but then realizing it is in the Bible. Do we really know the Christmas story? Do we really read our Bibles? Do we treat others as we should? This movie will make a great conversation starter on so many topics with your family. There are many instances of the kids taking the Lord's name in vain. It is brought up multiple times as not being okay. So if you are watching with kiddos know that they will hear that and also see the kids acting out terribly at the start. I don't think younger kids would enjoy watching this (they might get bored) but for kids a little older I think this would be a good Christmas movie to see together.

Enjoyed!

Average Joe Movie Review and Gift Card Giveaway

 

About the Movie

High school football coach Joe Kennedy had no other choice but to fight. A childhood in foster care followed by 20 years in the Marine Corps was nothing compared to his biggest battle: his commitment to stand for God publicly by taking a knee in prayer after each game. When he was fired, Joe and his wife Denise knew this battle for religious freedom, freedom of speech, and the rights of all Americans was one they would have to fight—no matter the cost. From the director and producers of God’s Not Dead and the producers of The Blind comes AVERAGE JOE, in theaters beginning October 11.

My Thoughts

Having only watched the preview for this movie I wasn't entirely sure what to expect. I was thinking a typical football movie with touching scenes and someone showing viewers what it means to stand up for what you believe in. Well there are a couple of touching scenes and Joe does strongly stand for his freedom but this movie was a lot different than I was expecting. There is a lot of violence I wasn't prepared for and because of that I don't recommend watching with younger children. The start of the film is Joe's childhood and it was really rough. He was adopted into a large family that didn't want him and who sent him off a couple of different times. The same goes for Joe's wife and her back story. There is a lot of abuse in both of their lives so be warned this is not a happy or easy movie to watch. 

Then there is a big chunk of the film set when Joe was in the military. Then to wrap up the movie we get to football and the difficulties of Joe being told he can't pray on the field. So about half of this movie is back story. The other interesting part of this film is that it is being narrated by Joe and his wife. So there are lots of scenes where they flip back and forth in showing the story and then telling the viewers what comes next. I thought this was a unique choice and I don't know that it was necessary. 

There are a few cuss words sprinkled throughout the film. Once again just use caution if watching as a family or with children. 

The main thing that I did like about this movie is it really showed Joe and his wife fighting for their marriage and that they really did struggle and didn't always agree. I thought this was well done and added a lot to the film. There is a scene where Joe is explaining his reasons for standing firm on being allowed to pray on the football field. It didn't necessarily come down to his belief in the Lord but to the freedom of praying in public. I think the Christian message is very gray and not well portrayed at all. BUT I do think that Joe did a good thing in standing his ground. Because of him it changes how people can now do these things and not get punished. At least by the Supreme Court. There is an interesting statement at the end of the movie that every viewer should watch that explains this in more detail.

 My Thoughts

I really love period films. There are so many stories to be told based on past events so I was really excited to watch White Bird. This is a really great movie and be prepared for lots of tears. It is awful how humans treated/treat other humans, especially during WWII. My goodness this is a hard thing to watch and I recommend not watching this with young children. Unlike the movie poster portrays, this is a gruesome film in parts and it doesn't shy away from the horrific things that went on at the time. You see people get shot, a young man attacked by an animal, people mocked and hurt for being Jewish, and how evil the Nazi soldiers were overall. While the film makers showed the hard things it is also important to understand so these horrors don't repeat themselves. 

 The main thread of the story follows a young girl and boy and their sweet friendship and imagination that is created from a world of utter darkness. I love how this film showed continual hope amid the fear and uncertainty of daily living. The light shines in the darkness. 

Helen Mirren is one of a kind and her scenes add so much as you can imagine. I love how the story line is set up with Sara (Mirren) telling her grandson her story and how it ties in with his current life. It makes this film relatable to us today and also proves how important it is to know our history.  

Overall this is a great film that needs shown to the next generation and to those who think these things never happened or that it doesn't matter anymore. It did happen and it does matter.

My Thoughts

I have watched the other God's Not Dead movies and enjoyed them. This one is all about politics and for some that might make you think "oh no I don't want to watch a movie about such things". BUT I encourage you to see it! It went a different direction I wasn't expecting and I thought the acting good and the final and main point was made clear. It held my interest the entire time and I am not someone who is really into anything political aside from reading, listening, and voting. Regardless of opinion I would watch this movie with an open mind. It doesn't claim to portray a specific political person and it is mainly making a statement that your vote matters. Apparently 40 million Christians don't vote and 15 million aren't even registered to vote. That is astonishing to me. I know people who don't vote because they don't think it matters (the film even has a scene portraying this) but reality is that if so many people "don't think it matters" it turns into millions of people not voting! THAT does have an impact!

I enjoyed the movie and I found it worth the watch!

My Thoughts 

I have led women's Bible study for the past few years so I am always on the lookout for something that we can do next. I was excited to look into this study because I saw that Joni Eareckson Tada was a part of it and her story is amazing. I had never heard of this author before reading this study.

The Bible study itself is a small book size which I love. The layout is really nice as it breaks everything down in an organized way and isn't too much information overload. There are questions, you watch the video, and then more questions and deeper study. There are multiple Bible references that you have to look up and that is wonderful! The only thing is that I can not fully back the people being interviewed and promoted in the videos. I recommend that you do your own research but I didn't realize who all was included as Biblical examples/testimonies. There is also a section on scripture meditation, which is fine, obviously we need to meditate on scripture daily. But many of the questions are in regards to our feelings which I don't think is helpful or necessary especially in a group setting. 

I recommend that you do your own research on this study and those involved before picking it up for yourself. I won't be using it for our group study. 

The prayer journal is a nice addition and it is like a hardback binder type journal that is a bit unique and not like a typical journal. The encouragement cards seem to be a popular thing these days. The ones in the kit are nice quality and have great verses on them. I don't really use the cards but I am sure many people will love them!

Based on a remarkable true story, a mum's faith stands against all odds; and inspires her husband and children to hold onto theirs.

My Thoughts

I have been eagerly anticipating this movie ever since I heard it was being created. I have been a longtime fan of Rebecca St. James and For King + Country and I love to see true life stories in film. This movie does not disappoint. It takes you right into the hard season of life for the Smallbone family. It is relatable and so well acted and portrayed. There are so many scenes that I just loved and a few that really will touch your heart. The thing I think I loved the most about this movie is that there are so many layers. You have Helen who is the mom and she truly is a hero. You then see David's growth over the course of the film and how he deals with his pride and how he humbles himself. The forgiveness with family and the example it shows is so beautiful and evident of how it can be life changing! The family as a whole really stepped up together and it is fun to see how Rebecca's music journey started. Even if you aren't a fan or haven't heard of them, this is a GREAT movie and I highly recommend!

Oh my goodness this movie is a heart wrenching tear jerker. I have not read this book though I have read many books by Kingsbury. This is such a well acted and beautifully shot film. Karen Kingsbury has such a way with words and it is evident in the script of this movie. There are certain lines that are heartfelt and real and that comes from a great story teller. This story doesn't shy away from the hard and honestly controversial topics in our society especially in regards to IVF. My only negative is that some parts of the film seem a tad slow in getting to the next scene or moving the story along at times. 

I also think that this is just an example of a possible outcome of a life of adoption via IVF. As with any type of adoption it isn't necessarily all happy and joy and found family when a person does discover their biological family. We want to think so and it is possible but often times that isn't the case. BUT these things can happen and God is working in so many ways we can't comprehend His plan. This film is a great example of that! 

Regardless this is a great movie that holds a lot of emotion. There is joy and there is some romance but mostly it's about dealing with the hard in life and Who to look to at all times. 

I recommend! 

*this film does deal with grief, death, infertility, IVF, and adoption.

My Thoughts

I love movies that are based on true stories and I was excited to see the story of Cabrini. I had never heard of her and knew nothing about the history surrounding this film. Set in 1889 New York the viewer gets a front row seat to the sad and unheard of living conditions that the immigrants, specifically the Italians, survived on a daily basis. How other people treat another people group is appalling and during this time you could do what you wanted and pretty much get away with it or even be encouraged to do so. 

In steps a very strong willed woman who wants to help the young children who are surrounded by the violence and who are in poor living conditions in New York City. The film doesn't back away from showing the hard things. There are prostitutes, gore from a hospital scene, murder while trying to protect oneself, and overall violence of hate for a specific people group. This isn't a movie I would watch with young children. It is rate PG-13 for a reason. Also, this movie is very long as it covers so many details from Cabrini's life and what she accomplishes. It is a slow moving film that is also spoken mostly in Italian. You have to be able to read the subtitles or you won't understand much that is happening. Going into this movie I wish I had known that or been better prepared because you really have to read what is being said and pay attention. 

All that to say I have a deeper interest in the life of Cabrini and what she did is incredible. She knew her life mission and she did it no matter what. She was a servant to others and it is evident in this film what she accomplished. This is a tough movie to watch due to the content so I am not sure I would want to watch it twice. Films like this tend to stick with the viewer for a long time. If you are interested in history and true stories you might enjoy this film!
