Share the books that you would like for us to read for February 2017. (Please remember that if you are an author and are suggesting your own book, you also have to suggest another book that you didn't contribute to as an author.)

I look forward to reading your suggestions.

Sally Poyzer | 2 comments Hi everyone!

I have two books to suggest:

1. Personality Plus by Florence Littauer

This is a hugely practical book that I got so much out of. I have used the principles from it in leadership training (in secular workplaces) to help people understand how to work with different personalities in their team
and I also use it as a women's pastor to encourage people to better understand how their husbands/wives/children/parents/friends tick. It's a great book!

2. That Book for Wives by Sally Poyzer

This is my book. It's a very easy to read, Biblically-based book full of practical advice for wives of all ages. I wrote it because I found that most of the great marriage books are written for couples...but most husbands won't read them! This just makes the wives more frustrated. This book only looks at things a wife can do, by herself, irrespective of whether her husband is interested in changing. Of course, many wives find that when they start to implement the principles, their husbands do change because they are much happier!

Thanks for letting me suggest. I'm interested to see what everyone else suggests too.

There are two books that I want to suggest.
The first book is (Un)Qualified How God Uses Broken People to Do Big Things by Steven Furtick
The second book is one that I wrote and recently published. Being Mrs. Mom A Christian Woman, Wife & Mother Living in the 21st Century by Makeda Rodriguez
Let us know what you think about the lists of books so far.
I have also received a few suggestions in messages. I will post those shortly.

Let's try to narrow down the books to about 3 books, so that I can create the poll. Your thoughts are welcome.

These are a few of the suggested books that I have received in the messages for month.
1. Teach Them Diligently: How to Use the Scriptures in Child Training

2. The Mission of Motherhood: Touching Your Child's Heart for Eternity

3. Different Children, Different Needs: Understanding the Unique Personality of Your Child

Take a look at them and tell us what you think.

mRose (mrosebarnett) | 4 comments I like the Mrs' Mom one and the Teach them diligently and different children. Can I also add Wall Around Your Heart by Mary E. DeMuth... it seems somewhat Valentine's talking about the heart and relationships. But I'd be glad for any of these.

Unfortunately I had a technical issue and we didn't have a group read. I apologize for that.
