Dad's Bible

Often times, men seem to be so engaged with work and everyday life that picking up the Bible to read can almost be a bit of a daunting task. It's a big book and with the little time that most fathers have in their lives, it often collects dust on the bookshelf. However, the idea of a Dad's Bible is an encouraging way to draw a father in but also to give them biblical examples that can help guide them on their everyday journey through life. 

When I found out that I had the opportunity to review this Bible, I jumped right at the request. Book Sneeze allowed me to review this book for free. Happily, I also wanted to test the waters by getting this book for my husband. Excitingly, this Bible has a lot going for it. 

Created in manly colors and rustic-like pages, this Bible begins with a personal forward to fathers. Following this forward is Genesis and within Chapter 1 lies a section about how to apply that beginning chapter to fatherhood. There are many mentions of Dad's in the Bible, examples of Godly character, and even a thick section with questions and answers towards the back. I love the index at the end which can be very useful for fathers who need a quick reference particularly for disciplining their children. 

This is a well laid-out Bible that sticks mainly with actual Bible wording and has minimal snippets throughout. With Father's Day quickly approaching, this would make one great gift!

The Money Answer Book by Dave Ramsey

We all seem to have money issues. Whether it's dealing with them as a college student, in one's marriage, or even as a parent, we all face times where we deal with money. We need to know how to handle it.


Thankfully, there are people like Dave Ramsey who provide excellent advice in the area of money. The author of this book takes things from previous books in a quick question/answer format that anyone can flip through. He discusses ideas such as "The Debt Snowball" as a way to pay off debt and get a better control over one's money system. He talks about money in relationships. He talks about automobiles and real estate.

What I like about this book is that it's a great purse book. It's fairly small enough that you can throw it in your purse or book bag to take with you. You can read through it at any convenience. I like how the pages are set up with the questions and answers. You don't have to read an entire novel to get what he's trying to say about different issues concerning money. Instead, it's a quick flip reference book with advice. This is a great book to get a person on track with their spending habits.
