Everyday Adventuring
This is Dave Hollis' first book, and his is a new voice in the personal development world, following his wife Rachel Hollis into it... I got this book because I enjoy Dave and Rach's Start Today Morning Show on Instagram, I really enjoyed Rachel's books, and I find the way they talk about life and… Continue reading Get Out of Your Own Way – Dave Hollis
I went into listening to this book expecting something that it wasn't. I thought it was primarily a memoir with health and fitness as a secondary, but I was mistaken. On some level, this book is basically a promotion to download Carrie's new app... However, I really enjoyed the stories Carries told about her rising… Continue reading Find Your Path – Carrie Underwood
I didn't stop talking about Elton John the whole time from start to finish (and beyond) of this book! The stories he tells are so gripping, and it gives amazing insight to an incredibly well lived and varied life. I love hearing some background to his career and songs. And it's great that it sounds… Continue reading Me – Elton John
This book is hilarious. In my opinion, Amy Poehler is hands down one of the funniest people and writers of our generation. She writes very frankly, very honestly, and with a lot of humour. She touches on all sorts of topics but brings light to them all. I identify a lot with certain parts of… Continue reading Yes Please! – Amy Poehler
An excellent book that has genuinely challenged me to think and act differently. So rich with stories and scripture. Some of my key take aways: Sometime, God wants us just to choose His presence, and to be content in simply being with Him. A 15 year journey of a prayer movement is simplified into one… Continue reading Dirty Glory – Pete Greig
I absolutely loved this book. I started it as we were about to begin a 24/7 Prayer week at our church and I wanted to know more about its origins and get some inspiration. This book surely delivered on both of those things and was peppered with personal anecdotes and humour along the way too.… Continue reading Red Moon Rising – Pete Greig
I’m embarking on a new adventure this year - I will be studying for a masters degree! A Master of Arts in Theological Studies with the concentration in World Christianity to be precise. I wanted to share a bit of the background behind this journey, and take you along for the ride... It's not something… Continue reading I’m Going Back to University!
My alarm buzzes at 5.25am. It takes a few minutes to rouse from my slumber, but it’s not a dread I wake up with, more anticipation. I get out of bed, quietly, trying not to wake my sleeping husband. I go to the loo, have a quick swill of mouthwash then retrieve yesterday’s clothes that… Continue reading It’s 5.28, who is awake?
Since arriving in Vancouver 53 weeks ago, I've got quite used to all the subtle differences of living 4518 miles away from where I grew up.
However, a while ago Tom and I were noticing little differences, and I thought it might be fun to share some of them!
