Erwin McManus explores the path to inner peace using a biblical framework. Each chapter focuses on a specific element of the the warrior’s code. Although written in an easy conversational tone, the subject matter is of depth. I found myself needing to pause to think and reflect upon the thoughts and ideas presented.

Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine is hilarious and heart-breaking. I really enjoyed this book. Eleanor is one of the most interesting book characters I have encountered in a long time. The continual unraveling of Eleanor’s real story as a sub-plot throughout the book makes for a suspenseful story that begs for you to keep reading.

The One in a Million Boy is a beautifully written novel. It chronicles the relationship between 104 year old Ona and an eleven year old boy scout who is assigned to help her with odd jobs around her house in order to earn a merit badge. With time, Ona and the boy develop a special friendship, but then the boy stops coming to her house to help. After a few weeks, the boy scout’s father appears at Ona’s home in order to finish his son’s work there. He ultimately explains that his son has died. As the boy scout’s parents get to know Ona they learn who their son really was and who they are as well. The One in a Million Boy is a touching book that is hard to put down once you start.

Still looking for a few Christmas gifts?! The Case for Christ: Daily Moment of Truth is an outstanding devotional which incorporates text from Strobel’s previous Case for Christ resources. I really like the succinct nature of each devotional. They are easy to read and understand yet still have a great deal of substance. This devotional would make a lovely gift.

A Christmas Story is a lovely book that tells the story of an angel who is uncertain what to bring to celebrate the birth of Baby Jesus. Ultimately, she realizes a star that shines brightly is the perfect gift for a king. The text and illustrations in this book work together beautifully to create a wonderful holiday read. This book is not to be missed!

Each devotion includes scripture, a short narrative, a prayer, and a couple of questions for further thought and reflection. This one is a winner!
