Seven Holy Women: Conversations with Saints and Friends
My parish's sisterhood is starting with this book, and I read it within the first week! I loved coming across saints I hadn't heard of before. The creative narrative from their first-person perspectives was really thought-provoking. Lots of space for reflection and contemplation; the ideal would be to do a 1-on-1 book exchange with a close friend. Can't recommend it enough!

Waiting and Dating: An Orthodox Christian Guide for Navigating Singleness and Godly Relationships
Lilyan Andrews writes a beautiful book that goes in depth to each of her subjects and gives a perfectly clear picture on how the Church wants us to approach dating. Each topic will encourage the reader to put their trust in God’s will and serve as a guide for any future relationships they might have.

Waiting and Dating: An Orthodox Christian Guide for Navigating Singleness and Godly Relationships
This book is a breath of fresh air for teenagers, young adults, and even older adults who may find themselves dating again after divorce and navigating the dating world in the 21st century as an Orthodox Christian. I would recommend this book as a must for parents of young teens to read, and when their children are old enough, pass it on to them. Lilyan Andrews' wisdom and guidance provides a reality check and an Orthodox perspective to dating, as opposed to the unrealistic and fantastical expectations we are bombarded with through Hollywood, the media, and social media. Lilyan focuses on God's will for us in regards to dating and relationships. Do not let your child go to college without reading this book!

Waiting and Dating: An Orthodox Christian Guide for Navigating Singleness and Godly Relationships
Andrews approaches both marriage and singleness as good. Andrews provides several suggestions to help a person make a more informed lifestyle choice that provides salvific opportunity instead of simply satisfying a selfish want. In my estimation, the most important statement made in this book is on page 47. Andrews writes, “…it’s important to create a healthy relationship with ourselves by learning to love and esteem ourselves.” The context involves loving “our future significant other” but it can also involve choosing a life of singleness. Her book provides a viable map to arrive at your choice destination in relationship with God and the expression of that relationship towards His Creation.

Holy Fools: The Lives of Twenty Fools for Christ
I recently bought this book as an introduction to the genre of Fools for Christ. In it, I found a fascinating collection of Saint's lives and the whole notion of one being a Fool for Christ. It was an excellent read, and I highly recommend it!

Putting Joy into Practice: Seven Ways to Lift Your Spirit from the Early Church
The type face is actually quite hard to read. So I haven’t had a chance to put in the effort to read it yet. I might have to try a magnifying glass. I’m disappointed because I was looking forward to reading it and using it for our advent book study.I also bought the book Behold A Great Light and that is much easier to read so I’m using that for our church’s book study in place of the joy book.

Syria Crucified: Stories of Modern Martyrdom in an Ancient Christian Land
“Syria Crucified” should be read by every genuine believer in the United States. It is a needed corrective for American Christians who mostly see the region through a simplistic, distorted lens. The book is at once sad, encouraging, and convicting. Sad because so many of Syria’s Christians have died or fled their homes; encouraging because of their perseverance in the midst of much tribulation; convicting because what have I or any western Christian ever suffered for the name of Jesus?

Holy Water Bottle with icon of Christ, glass
Bottle is very small, but is glass which is what I wanted. The cap is plastic and closes at an angle, not with the cross on the cap standing up straight and even as in the photo. I took off one star for that. Otherwise I am pleased.

Goodnight, Child of God (board book)
This book is a beautiful chance to weave in solid theology with a bedtime story to teach your children about all the different aspects of the kingdom of God and his church. It is our favourite story to read to our little one as it draws my husband and I’s eyes up to the heavenly realms too and becomes a prayer of the heart!
