Review & Giveaway: The Blessings of Unity

About the book:
The Blessings of Unity offers insight and ideas for creating godly unity in our marriages centered around two key concepts:
1) Abiding in the Vine and walking in the Spirit, and
2) Learning and applying the concept of unity.
Unity is achieved when a man and woman strive for agreement with God by processing His Will on every decision and in every issue. Through Biblically-centered discussions of discord, division, unity, discipleship, and prayer, and through exploring Biblical examples of unity, Richard Case offers husbands and wives practical and spiritual advice for working together in unity in the Spirit so that they can more perfectly present themselves to God for his divine approval.

About the author/ministry:
Before his current role in developing retreats and serving this ministry, All for Jesus, Richard Case worked for many years with Fortune 500 companies in management and consulting roles. He holds a BS in Management and Finance from Bradley University, an MBA from the University of Southern California, and a seminary Masters degree from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Richard has been a featured speaker at conferences and seminars; he has hosted a radio show and is a published author. Richard and his wife, Linda, answered the call from the Lord to Abide in Him through the Spirit. Together, Richard and Linda have started up several churches that remain strong today, and have served as interim pastors of troubled churches, bringing reconciliation and new vision to these situations. Richard and Linda began conducting marriage retreats in 2001. Richard and Linda currently live in Castle Rock, CO.

My Review: Oh I loved this book! The very first chapter starts out with an evaluation of your marriage for both myself and my husband, to be done separately and very honestly. I loved that. It is so important to honestly evaluate things so that you can address things so that healing can happen. The author shared his own testimony of his marriage and how they were able to overcome division and become unified.
One of the primary keys to unity is a desire to go to unity....Ephesians tells us that we are to walk worthy of our calling---which is to walk with the Father in the Spirit, surrendering to Him and seeking His will. This requires humility, gentleness, patience and walking through the difficulties with each other in love. We are called to work (attend to carefully) to keep the unity of the Spirit in the "Bond of Peace--Shalom."

One of the big take aways I got from the book is the importance of walking in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Dying to self and putting my sweetheart first.

I so think this is a book worth reading! It is not a long read, easily read a chapter every night with my husband.

Author: Diane Stortz is an author and former editorial director whose heart’s desire is to “tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord” (Psalm 78:4). Diane’s books include Words to Dream On, The Sweetest Story Bible, I Am, Say & Pray Bible, and A Woman’s Guide to Reading the Bible in a Year. Diane and her husband reside in Cincinnati, Ohio, and have two married daughters. Diane enjoys walking, gardening, and visiting her four young grandsons.

About the book: Bestselling children’s author Diane Stortz has sold nearly 300,000 books—Bible storybooks, devotionals for children, and more. This brand-new title, Say & Pray Devotions, is the perfect beginner devotional for little ones.
Parents who already know and love the Say & Pray Bible will love Say & Pray Devotions as it helps their youngsters continue to engage their faith in a personal way. Featuring the same fun style of artwork and the educational elements as Say & Pray Bible, this devotional for little ones will teach the basics of identification and comprehension while sharing biblical principles for life. Each devotion offers a topical message to help little ones learn and follow biblical principles.


My Review:
The cover of the book is very much what you find on the inside! A perfect book for toddlers, with it's cardboard pages and short sentences. Each devotion is 2 pages, the first page says something about God's World and the second page is a short Scripture verse and prayer that relate to the previous page! The verses are short enough for our speaking toddlers to memorize! We are never too young to hide His Word in our hearts!
