I agreed to read The Quotable Rogue: The Ideals of Sarah Palin in Her Own Words (edited and with a foreword by Matt Lewis) awhile back and it's taken me a few weeks to get to this book because of other items I'm reading. However, this book was a simple read. It's basically a book of Sarah Palin quotes that is edited into different categories: on abortion, on the economy, on family, etc. I can't say I learned anything new about Sarah Palin. I've been a fan of hers from the start. I think she has some wonderful ideals and a good heart. I don't necessarily want her to be president, but I guess we'll see if she even throws a nomination out there. The book itself, like I said, didn't really throw new information my way. However, I believe that someone who only watches mainstream media or Saturday Night Live to get their information about Palin would learn something. As we come upon an election year, I think that if Palin throws her name into the nominatio...

Out of a Far Country is the journey of two prodigals: a mother and son, finding their way to the love of the Lord. Angela Yuan was in a loveless, lifeless marriage with rebellious sons. She was so lost and felt so alone that she was {  } this close to committing suicide. Then she started to read a pamphlet about Jesus and how much He loved her. As Angela began to live for the Lord, her prayers turned to her wayward son, Christopher. Chris was living a homosexual and drug dealer's lifestyle. His description of his life just breaks a mother's heart!! As the book takes you through years of this family's life, I am astounded by the prayer life of Angela - for a redemption of a broken home. The Lord proved that He works miracles by answering her prayers. Angela spent much time on her knees in despair for her life - and not a second was wasted! I love hearing stories of redemption and the power of prayer! I think too often we are too focused on DIY and self-help that we forget ...

Congratulations to Apryl from Studying to be a Mommy. She won my second pacifier pocket! An email will be sent, letting her know that she won! Thanks for entering my giveaway; stay tuned for another (hopefully) by the end of this week. I'm a little behind writing a few book reviews due to vacation...and not just getting it done. ha! I will also (hopefully) upload some pictures for you all of our vacation!

Congratulations to Jewelry by J ! She is the winner of my MiMyBelle Pacifier Pocket. I do have one pacifier pocket left, but I only had that one entry for the last one. I don't think that you all understand how wonderful a pacifier pocket is for parents who have a child with a pacifier. I lose that sucker all.the.time. So I will open the giveaway for one MiMyBelle Pacifier Pocket until August 10, 2011. If you want to enter, leave a comment on this post .

If you are in the Omaha area and want to go to Women of Faith, I do have one ticket to give away. It's a first come, first serve thing. I'm also putting this on my Facebook page. I just happen to have this extra ticket and would really love for someone else to have the opportunity to go to the conference.

<p><p><br><br><br>In <br></p></p> In about 2 weeks, I am going to be attending my first Women of Faith Conference in Omaha, NE with my very best friend, LJ. I am so excited, not only to be spending time with her, but also learning more about God. I don't know what all to expect from this event other than learning and having fun. The line-up for this event is AMAZING...or so I've heard! I don't know most of the people speaking or entertaining, to be honest. I am looking forward to Amy Grant and Blaire from "The Facts of Life" (I'm sure she has a real name but I can...

Hi MOB Society ! I am Randi aka S Club Mama. On the S Club 4 blog you will find posts about God/faith, motherhood, autism, silly boys, and reviews and giveaways (right now I'm giving away a MyMiBelle Pacifier Pocket ! This is a super useful product if you have a pacifier baby or as a shower gift!). I am a SAHM of two young boys. I enjoy reading (I majored in English in college), watching movies (just saw Captain America & Harry Potter at a drive-in!), and running (training for my 3rd half marathon in September). I'm the president of the women's ministry team at my church - so excited about our upcoming year as we strive to connect the women in our church. I've been a Christian for several years but feel like I'm really just digging deep into my relationship with Jesus Christ - it's amazing. I've been married to the best husband ever, Big A, for 5 years here in about a week. We've moved 6 times in those 4 years but finally feel like we're going ...
