The divine dance and..Bear Nessities of business

its Friday!
and I'm off for christmas break!
Divine Dance, The: If the World is Your Stage, Who Are You Performing For?


The Divine dance
a book review
written
by Rachel S

The Divine Dance, written by Shannon Kubiak Primico is about not dancing for the world but dance for God. Shannon uses analogies from the dance studio. She covers modesty from dancing for God and how to do it. She tells young girls to take off our glittery mask that conceals who we really are. We are trying to perform for the World and catch their attention. What I liked most of all about this book was she covered the topic about modesty very well
4 out of 5 stars

book review I dared to call him father

Finally! here it is!

I Dared to Call Him Father

I dared to call him father
book review written
by Rachel S
I Dared To Call Him Father, written by Bilquous Shiekh and coauthored by Richard H. Schneider is an autobiography of a Muslim higher class lady, and how she became a Christian. She was 45 years old when one day she sensed a very weird and uncanny presence, she was told to read the Koran when she told of her experience. From there she wanted a Bible, asked her chauffeur for a Bible, he was scared. From there, she became a Cristian and gave her life to God. She learned to feel God's presence and how it left if she didn't follow him. She was abandoned by her family but she still held on to her faith.

I liked this book, I especially liked how the author told of the chauffeur books clicking and the furnishings of the house, its the best autobiography I have read of a convert. I suggest this book for 13 years and up
