Summary

Christian perspective, believable humor, and been-there understanding delightfully come together in this colorful pair of light-reading gift books. These stories and reflections--direct from the trenches--capture enough of the real world to connect with every reader, but deliver lessons of faith and hope from the big-picture world of God's glorious possibilities. Just in time for Mother's Day, end-of-the-school-year presents, or as anytime remembrances, these gorgeous volumes make a great way to bring a busy woman's life down to size.
