Fall Into Reading Challenge


Katrina is hosting a Fall Into Reading Challenge which runs from September 23 to December 23. The purpose of this challenge is for us to establish some goals for our reading this Fall and then work toward them. Whether you have a pile of books that you've been intending to read but just haven't yet, or you need a gentle prod to finish some books that you started but then abandoned, or you would just like a little accountability as you work through your reading stack, this is designed to challenge and encourage readers.
I have a pile of books, unread and will list some that I am anxious to read this fall.

A Woman After God's Own Heart by Elizabeth George
A Heart Like His by Beth Moore
Creating A Beautiful Home by Alexandra Stoddard
Created To Be His Helpmeet by Debi Pearl
Feminine Appeal by Carolyn Mahaney
The Blessing by Gary Smalley & John Trent
The Power of a Positive Mom by Karol Ladd
A Life That Says Welcome by Karen Ehman

That should get me started and I may add more if I make good progress!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals.

Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...
