Well now, there is! Laurie Cole of Priority Ministries has a wonderful 7-week Bible study that is perfect for mothers and daughters to experience together! Moms use the Beauty by the Book workbook and free online videos while daughters use the Beauty by the Book for Teens workbook and free online videos. Each study mirrors the other with each week providing endless opportunities for meaningful conversations and deeper connections to form between you and your daughter.

By exploring several beauty do’s and don’ts in Proverbs, you’ll discuss topics such as:

• The attributes of true beauty
• God’s dress code
• How to avoid being an irritating woman, and
• How to thrive in your current (or future) role as a wife, mother, and/or career woman.

Each study can be purchased individually, but for a limited time you can get both for 25% off the cover price! That’s one Beauty by the Book workbook for you and one Beauty by the Book for Teens workbook for your daughter for just $17.99! Plus, Laurie’s 30-45 minute teaching videos that complement each week’s lesson are available for FREE on our website.

With today’s culture bombarding us with ungodly images and unrealistic expectations for physical beauty, it’s more important than ever for both you and your daughter to understand and embrace God’s standard for beauty.

So don’t let this summer be filled with strife and misery. Use this summer to draw closer to God, closer to your daughter, and closer to biblical beauty with Beauty by the Book and Beauty by the Book for Teens! Click here to buy yours now.

When Sierra from Justtrust Christian Clothing contacted me to do a review of her clothing I was really excited. The first person I thought of when I saw the style and design of her clothing was my 13 year old daughter. Now my daughter is very picky with her clothes. She doesn’t like anything too scratchy or uncomfortable and she pretty much hates anything that is pink, or in her words “too fancy.” She is a very down to earth girl with a little bit of flair. I had an inkling that she would actually LOVE the Justtrust t-shirt Sierra was sending over to me, and I was right.

When I received the shirt she was very intrigued by what I had ordered. I showed her the shirt and she asked me who it was for, and I told her it was for her, her eyes lit up! Please know that my 13 year old NEVER gets excited about clothes, but she was excited about this shirt. She also claimed the Justtrust wristband as her own too!

My daughter sporting her new gear!

I have to say I was very impressed with the t-shirt, it was soft and 100% preshrunk cotton! Which soft t-shirts is certainly ideal for my 13 year old daughter. We were both very happy with the JustTrust clothing, the quality of their products is awesome and worth every penny!

JustTrust clothing is based off of Provers 3:5-6:

Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding.

JustTrust clothing carries thermals, hoodies, tees, burnouts, wristbands, stickers, and hats. The t-shirts are ring-spun cotton.

Paddywhacks are supposed to live in the Plex. In fact, they can’t survive outside its walls. At least that’s what Plug and his friends were always taught…

This app will not only entertain your kids (with its fun characters, brilliant illustrations, original music, and engaging interactivity), but it will also enlighten them. The story is a redemptive tale of two worlds, in the vein of C.S. Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia.

Plug & The Paddywhacks is a free app and the first issue is included. A new issue comes out each month for $0.99, or you can purchase the entire season for just $5.99! Visit heyplug.com for more information. You can also learn more at Youtube, or follow us on Facebook and Twitter!

This post includes a giveaway, just scroll down to the Rafflecopter widget to find out how to enter! You can win $50 gift certificate towards your personalized Christmas Card purchase and more! OH and there is a coupon code too at the end of my review!

I think one of my frustrations about searching for Christmas cards is that a lot of them do not have any depth. Christmas time is truly a wonderful moment to share your faith with family and friends, and a lot of us do this through Christmas cards. That’s why I was so excited when The Little Card Company contacted me to do a review of their beautiful Christmas cards.

I love that The Little Card Company keeps Christ in Christmas, plus their prices are very reasonable!

From The Little Card Company website:

“Happy Holidays?” Not here! Our purpose is to put CHRIST back in Christmas. Our designs reflect the warmth, joy and happiness of Christmas without leaving out the true reason for the season. Each festive card provides a means to stay connected and to genuinely spread the joy about the birth of Jesus. What a better way to share your family AND your faith at Christmas?

I love a business that has a mission and part of The Little Card Company’s mission is to keep the true meaning of Christmas front and center.

Here are just a few samples of their beautiful Christmas Cards (click on the image to view larger):

I truly enjoyed the experience of uploading my picture to their website and having the cards arrive quickly. The Little Card Company truly offers a product of high quality. This is actually the first year I have ever ordered personalized Christmas cards, and I have to say it will NOT be the last because it was SO easy!

Now that my cards are here all I need to do is put them in the envelope, print out labels, and send them off. I’m so excited because this process is so much easier than what I use to do. Honestly I never felt all that motivated to send out Christmas cards, but this year I really am motivated.

Maybe it’s because The Little Card Company makes the process so simple, or maybe it’s because I get to share a beautiful card that not only shows how fast my kiddos are growing up but also shares an encouragement on what Christmas is truly about.

The Giveaway

The Little Card Company has been extremely generous in offering this wonderful gift basket to one of our readers:

Three Pack of Thank You Cards

$50 Gift Certificate Towards Your Personlized CHRISTmas Cards & a Tote Bag!

Honestly this gift basket is awesome, and I just love that everyone over at The Little Card Company has been so generous! I hope you will enter to win below.

A Special Offer for YOU!

P.S. If you just can’t wait to see if you win, or if you don’t win this awesome giveaway then I have some REALLY great news for you! The Little Card Company has also offered our readers a $10 off coupon on your CHRISTmas card order of 50 or more! Isn’t that awesome! I hope you will join me in supporting The Little Card Company – their mission is something worth supporting.

Artist:  Seeds Family Worship

Produced: 2008

My Rating:  5 out of 5 stars

Overview

Seeds Family Worship is a ministry born of a request to write children’s music.  The result of this ministry is multiple CDs that offer “God’s Word set to music for thousands of families all over the world.”

Seeds of Faith, volume 2 of the Seeds Family Worship music CDs, is

based on verses from the Bible that proclaim the basics of our unshakeable faith. Recommended for all ages.

Each volume issued by Seeds Family Worship contains 2 identical CDs in each pack – one to keep and one to share.  It is the ideal way to share the seeds of faith with others!

My Review

This has got to be one of my ALL-TIME favorite CDs ever.  I love praise & worship music.  I love old hymns and music that worships the Lord in new ways.  But singing Scripture is absolutely powerful and effective!  The Scriptures put to music on this CD are cornerstones of faith.

“Eternal Life” is John 3:16 set to music.  Not only is it beautiful to sing – it’s incredibly simple for my young daughters to memorize a basic Bible verses that speak to God’s love for us and His Gift of Christ to the world.  The more we listen to the CD, the more they want to listen to it.  I find myself humming or singing one or more of the songs in my head on a regular basis.  What a lovely way to meditate on God’s Word!

I HIGHLY recommend this CD to you.  I intend to purchase additional volumes to add to our collection.  There are a total of 6 volumes available:

• Seeds of Courage
• Seeds of Faith
• Seeds of Praise
• Seeds of Purpose
• The Power of Encouragement
• Seeds of Character (released May 2011!)

In a worshipful, upbeat and uplifting manner, you and your family can memorize and mediate upon God’s Word in a whole new way!

For our Zhu Zhu babies family night we had the following courtesy of Mommy Parties and Zhu Zhu Pets:

• 8 Deluxe Zhu Zhu Babies
• 2 Baby Outfits
• 1 Newborn Nursery Playset
• 1 Zhu Zhu Pet
• Yummy Recipes
• Games!

We had lots of fun putting together our new playset and dressing up the Zhu Zhu babies.

Here is a yummy snack you can also make for your zhu zhu babies family night:

Veggie Piggie in a Blanket

Ingredients:

• 1 (8 oz) package of crescent rolls.
• 16 meat free sausage links

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out the dough and use the perforations to separate into triangles. Cut each dough triangle into two triangles. Wrap a dough triangle around the center of each link, starting at wide end of triangle. Place wrapped piggies on a baking sheet, and bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until browned.

Then you can play this silly game:

Feeding Frenzy

Items Needed: Bibs, smocks, or old shirts, and soft food (like baby food.)

How to Play: Divide up into teams. One player does the feeding and the other player does the eating! The one doing the feeding gets behind their partner that is eating and be their arms, and start feeding them. The team that finishes the jar of food first, wins!

The key to having a successful zhu zhu babies family night is to just have fun and use your imagination! Think like a child..

What If We

My Rating:  4 out of 5 Stars

Overview

A contemporary album that includes a song featuring Jars of Clay, this album contains heartfelt and introspective song lyrics born of a spirit that wants to inspire you to “live a life with other people.”  Writing or co-writing every song on this album, Heath offers a transparent and open look at his heart for God.

In a culture that promotes self, these songs champion the ideal that Christ lived out as a servant and minister to others, looking outside himself and his own comfort, to meet with others where they were.   With songs like “Give Me Your Eyes,” Heath encourages us to take on a vision of the world that comes from God’s perspective, and not our own.

My Review

Although this album is new to me, as I listened to it the first time, I recognized several of the songs as being familiar to me from hearing them on my local radio station.  The more I recognized them, the more I realized how much I enjoy Brandon Heath’s message.

Even as I listened to songs that had not been released to Christian radio, I was touched by the meaningful lyrics and Heath’s encouragement to live a transparent, open, and broken life for the Lord.  Despite our failings and faults, we know that God is “not finished” with us yet and as we strive to live out our lives for God, He will work through us to touch others for His kingdom.

My Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Overview:

A 2-CD compilation set of traditional praise, contemporary worship and up-tempo gospel, Live Your Worship is “a collection of the top worship songs in church today.”  Containing more than 30 songs, you are likely to find very familiar songs that inspire you to praise God at the top of your lungs while you drive, or that provide a restful, quiet space to contemplate your relationship with the Almighty.

Featuring artists like Kari Jobe, Hillsong, Lincoln Brewster, and others – this CD-set offers songs that inspire you to move or fall down on your face in worship before the Throne.

Song titles include:

• Today is the Day
• How Great is our God
• God You Reign
• Come, Now is the Time to Worship
• In Christ Alone/The Solid Rock
• Amazed

and many, many more.   Whether you need to worship quietly in private, or dance before the Lord with your family, this is a CD-set you don’t want to miss!

My Review

As I listened for my first time to each CD, I found that each song built upon the other a worshipful and exuberant praise time with God.   Although a couple of the songs have provided particularly private meaning for me, my greatest joy is to play these CDs as my family & I drive in our van.  Hearing my daughters praise God along with us is profoundly moving and I have been blessed by the focus on God and the attitude of praise and thankfulness these songs encourage.

I have to be careful because there are a couple of the songs that make me want to get up and dance, and I have to tone down my response while I drive;  then there are others that so touch me that my eyes well up with tears and I find myself mentally falling down at the feet of God in pure worship – whether I’m alone or with  my family.

This is praise & worship music as it should be.  Personally moving and corporately worshipful.  I find myself turning to these CDs more than any others – whether I’m at home or not.
