WALK IN HER SANDALS

This book is an invitation for all women to “heal Christ´s body” by embracing our “feminine genius”.  I love the dynamic of the book: each chapter has a feminine gift to ponder, Scripture passage, a fictional history that helps us imagine ourselves at the Gospel´s scenes, a testimonial of great women about the gift we´re pondering about and many practical tips to help us live out that gift. Sometimes we feel the urge to do something about our faith, to help Jesus someway, and don´t know how. Here I found some wonderful ways to do this.

BETTER TOGETHER

It´s a very good book. Helped me a lot! Many practical tips to help to find new friends and enhance the ones you already have. It also shows how moms need to be with female friends and how friendship help us to be better moms.

THE 5 LOVE LANGUAGES OF CHILDREN

It´s a very interesting book. Most children know they´re loved by their parents, but not all of them feel that love. This book will teach you how to discover your child´s primary love language (there are 5) and enable you to fill his “emotional tank” in a way he will genuinely feel loved

1-2-3 MAGIC

My mother used this 1-2-3 counting when I was a child and perfectly worked for us. So I also use it with my children, but I didn´t know, until I read this book, how and why it worked. The techniques are well explained and easy to practice. What I liked the most is the “no talk, no emotion” posture. It´s good not only to stop bad behavior but also to stimulate your children to cooperate in the daily routine. It´s worth reading.

THE RIVER OF GRACE

This book offers many creative ways to deal with loss and grief and also leads you in a journey of self-knowledge. Susan opened her heart and shared stories of her life. Truly inspired by the Holy Spirit she helps you to let the River of Grace that comes straight from the heart of God immerse you into His love

THE LISTENING LIFE

I know I´m a person that talks too much. So I thought this book could help me listen better and listen more to people. But it´s SO MUCH MORE than that. It showed me a new perspective of the listening experience: how to listen not only to people, but specially how to listen to God in our loud world. “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening” (1Sam 3:9)

8 GREAT SMARTS

I was aware that each one of us have different talents and we should develop them the best we can. But I never thought that they were different types of intelligence, or “smarts” as the Author calls them. This book was really helpful to understand and identify the different types of intelligence we all have, the ones that are stronger and the ones we can improve. It also shows how we can interact and teach our children these smarts, which are the types of career linked to each smart and for me, the most interesting part was to know how is the best way that each smart can relate to God and serve others.
