Sisters in Faith

I just received from Thomas Nelson the Sisters in Faith Bible to review.  Of course, I have not read it cover to cover, but that is one of my goals for the new year! It looks amazing!

I have, however, given it a good once over and LOVE what I see so far. I have read several of the passages of Scripture and the thoughts that have been incorporated as a side note with those passages. This Bible and additions to it have much to offer the reader. I know I am going to gather much insight from reading it this coming year.


This is a hard back Bible, KJV version, with a concordance in the back. It includes a feature index for the Sisters in Faith additions, and a place to write notes. The front cover says: Encouraging and Empowering African American Women with God's Truth.  I am not an African American woman, but the authors that contributed to this Bible wrote features ALL women can relate to. They included articles on how a woman interacts with God, family, others, her career, and herself. 
The articles are arranged in features such as :
  • ARISE -devotionals
  • QUEST and DISCOVERY -question and answer sections
  • NOTES TO SELF - snippets of wisdom from the Word
  • SHE SPEAKS -offers the reader a chance to look at life through the eyes of the women in the Bible
  • EMPOWERED FAITH - motivational articles covering all five areas of life
This would make a great addition to any woman's library or as a gift to a friend for the new year!

You can purchase it from Christian Book Distributors or Amazon. Right now on sale at both online retailers.

My Body's Mine by Kayla Marnach

My Body's Mine helps children learn they have the rights to their body. Told through rhyme from a child's point of view this book on boundaries empowers each child to say no when others approach them in ways that make them uncomfortable. It also gives clear instructions on what to do if they are approached in an unwanted manner. The questions at the end of the book provides an easy transition for counselors and parents to open a discussion to prevent abuse or to further explore if abuse has occurred.
