Do Yourself a Favor: Love Your Wife 7 reviews
H. Page Williams
Bridge-Logos Publishers, 1979
Every husband needs to read this book to overcome ignorance
I have been a Christian husband for 29+ years and thought I was a very good husband. I read this book and it pinpointed my weakness as a husband, one item at a time untill I was exhausted - but had to agree with it. THE SCRIPTURE REFFERENCES ARE DYNAMITE!

The Artful Bride: Wedding Favors and Decorations: A Stylish Bride's Guide to Simple, Handmade Wedding Crafts ... 6 reviews
April L. Paffrath, Paula Grasdal, ...
Quarry Books, 2004
good ideas
There were some good ideas in this book. Unlike the invitation book, they didn't seem to be as origional. There were also favor ideas that wouldn't really be useful for most weddings. However, there were some cute ideas, I liked the tags they used for place settings. There were some tips that I wasn't aware of before reading the book. I do have to admit there are a couple of things that we might ...

Gaining Favor with God and Man2 reviews
William M. Thayer
Mantle Ministries, 1989
Opinion of "Gaining Favor with God and Man"
Truly an excellent book. Full of inspiring essays with subjects like "Integrity", "Perseverance", and "Honesty". I appreciated learning about the many noble men and women throughout history who left us with truly brilliant examples from which to model so many aspects of our lives - many of whom I had never heard of before!

Maya Kaimal Macmillan
Abbeville Press, 2000
Great recipes and presentation
I am really enjoying this book. The recipes I've tried have been easy to follow, as well as looking and tasting great. I also appreciated the shopping advice. I have tried other books on Indian cuisine from the library but this was by far the best. I'm glad I purchased it.

Finding Favor With the King: Preparing For Your Moment in His Presence14 reviews
Tommy, Tenney
Bethany House, 2004
This is a great read!
When I originally saw an interview with Tommy Tenney on TBN, he was discussing the book and the upcoming movie (can't wait to see that!). This book is an easy read, and I found it difficult to put down! I love the way he puts everything into perspective (comparing himself and the love of his kids to the relationship GOD wants to have with us), and lots of other great information that I had not ...
