After having told several people about how much these messages and books have aided my spiritual journey, I thought it was time to have a place where they are all linked. Here's a start:

Books:
The Excellent Wife
Attitudes of a Transformed Heart
Damsels in Distress (on my wish list!)

Audio:

2007 Women's Fall Conference:
1998 (I have not listened to these, but I'm sure they are good.)

Carolyn Mahaney
Carolyn and her three daughters write an excellent blog at www.girltalkhome.com. I highly recommend it!

Books:

Audio:
You can download many of Carolyn's messages at Sovereign Grace Ministries. Go here and select the Speaker as "Mahaney, Carolyn"

While I have benefited from many of the messages listed, the "To Teach What is Good" series has been played over my iPod many, many times.

Complete list of Elyse's books

Women's Conference on Idols of the Heart

There are many more and hopefully I'll list them sometime. You can always look at my bookstore for recommendations on a variety of topics. (It's not as clean or up-to-date as I'd like it, but again, it's a start! :-) )

proverbs for parenting - part 2

I've finished my trek (for now) of hunting through the book of Proverbs for nuggets of parenting wisdom...and wow! have I found the treasure trove! The book is full of responsibilities, blessings and warnings for both parent and child. I'm sure that I have probably missed several verses that should be on the list. But, in its incomplete form, here is what I found - parenting nuggets from the book of Proverbs . Recently in family worship my husband has been taking us through the book of Proverbs and teaching verses to our children. Though not an idea original to us, we've been putting hand motions etc. to some of the verses to help our children memorize. It has been amazing what even our one-year old remembers! A section of Scripture was read the other night at church and she was saying it right along with the speaker. We pray that it will be a great blessing to them to have these Scriptures stored in their minds - even if they don't remember it perfectly later, ...

some thoughts from Romans 9-11

Over Romans 9 in my Bible I have written "sovereignty and mercy of God". It is important that I remember both of those absolute, wonderful truths. Many times I can get caught up in the idea of the "sovereignty of God" without also remembering and living by His mercy. This is crazy!

How can you? It doesn't make sense that a just God who defines HOLY and can not tolerate sin would have mercy on A-N-Y-O-N-E. Yet, He is the author and effector (is that a word?) of salvation to save sinners. "So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy." Romans 9:16 I remember many years ago riding to a "girl's weekend out" with my sister and talking about this passage all the way. It was a beautiful ride i...

out of it

I really am not sure what to write this morning. I didn't get much sleep last night, not due to the kids - well the ones who have been born anyway. I'm going to try and watch more what and when I eat today so maybe tonight I won't be dealing with the acid reflux so bad. I read Romans 5 this morning and there is so much in there that I don't feel like I can get my head around it to pull out something. It's all so very wonderful. The kids aren't awake yet, so I think I'll go lay back down.
