It’s the last month of 2024. This year has flown by! I hope you’ve enjoyed these monthly posts with book recommendations. Here are the last three to close this year. I hope they’ll be a blessing to you!
Fiction –
Partners by Grace Livingston Hill
I love almost all of the books by this author! This one is a fun, slightly shorter read, and it’s set at Christmas. Two lonely people in a boardinghouse find an abandoned baby and become “partners” in trying to save his life. In the process, they find God’s love and a new family. It’s a sweet, entertaining story as only Grace Livingston Hill could write them. If you enjoy classic, heartwarming stories, you’ll like this one.
Non-Fiction –
The Way of the Warrior by Erwin McManus
As we reflect on Christmas and look toward a new year, it seems that peace is something we all need. It’s easy to get focused on the struggles we face, but Jesus offers us the gift of peace inside—regardless of what’s going on around us. Jesus has already won the victory, and the way of the warrior is to stand in that place of internal peace He gives. While we know this is true, it’s often hard to live it out practically in the midst of our trials. This book helped me to think differently and to discover ways to experience more of God’s peace in my life. I hope you’ll be blessed by it too!
Devotional –
Streams in the Desert by Mrs. Charles E. Cowman
This year-long devotional is one I’ve read over and over again. It’s full of comforting, encouraging, and strengthening truths. Even though it was written almost one hundred years ago, this book continues to comfort readers today, because the author wrote out of her own sufferings as she found comfort in God and His Word. As we begin a new year, if you’re feeling overwhelmed by trials, I hope you’ll find understanding and encouragement in this devotional.
Have a blessed new year!
