2-3-4 Challenge discussion

Happy April to Everyone! It has finally stopped raining in SoCal! The sun is shinning and the flowers are blooming. Easter is a special time for my family and the grandkids are looking forward to the Family Easter Present Hunt. But more than a time of presents and candy, Easter is a time of reflection the gift that God has given to us - the gift of his Son.

Wow, you’ve got a great list, Anita! We’re sharing quite a few titles and I love that you’re enjoying Sebastian St. Cyr and our earlier discussions. It’s an incredible series.

Enjoy everything!

Thank you, Jonetta! I find myself returning to the Sebastian St, Cyr Series whenever I need an audio book. I listened to this one over two days and two softball games, one baseball game and one flag football game.
