He challenges young adults to write their own script and not just accept what campus life hands them. It's the perfect High School Graduation gift.

Your complimentary critique is encouraging and I hope many people will be able to put the book to good use. Thanks for pointing out the pop-culture references at the beginning of the book. Not many people have mentioned it and I think it's a good entry into the concepts especially for young believers. Thanks, Bill Terry, I really appreciate your review of my book.

It's the Read-Along Story Book Sing-Along Songs with CD. Amazing! I can't wait to find more-these were all the types they had. @chantele I found In the Beginning, The Story of Adam and Eve, Samson and Delilah, Noah’s Ark, The Birth of Jesus and The Miracles of Jesus at the Dollar Tree for $1.00 each!

Sadly, the CD did not run properly and I have had a terrible time finding contact information so that I can get a replacment... I would really love to get one so my five year old could hear it and enjoy the songs as she really looked forward to singing those songs, especially Amazing Grace since she knows her Mother enjoys that song.

]]> Comment on How I Embrace the Doctrine of Election, Romans 8-9 by Pastor Walter Chantry by Meredith Leigh Burton http://christianbooknotes.com/2012/how-i-embrace-the-doctrine-of-election-romans-8-9-by-pastor-walter-chantry/#comment-4977 Meredith Leigh Burton Thu, 08 Mar 2012 22:52:15 +0000 http://christianbooknotes.com/?p=6351#comment-4977 I want to take a moment and profusely thank you for posting these fascinating studies about election. Isn't it truly remarkable how very finite we are compared to our awesome God? I cannot fully wrap my mind around all the spiritual truths contained within the doctrine of election, but it is so interesting to read how attitude plays such a vital role. Talk about the "meat" of the Word! A humbling experience to help grasp the poignancy of election is to read Job 38 and onward where God questions his prideful servant. God knows each and every one of us so intimately, and He knows who will come to Him and who will not. I like the examination of Jacob and Esau. God chose Jacob for the covenant to emphasize His grace. (Jacob's name means "heel-grabber" or "deceiver"). Jacob's name change to Israel after the wrestling match with the Angel proves that he gained humility through his refinement from God's hand. I also can't help but think of how Satan's pride was foreknown by God before the angel fell, and that He knew we would fall as well. It truly boggles the mind. Thanks for acknowledging that none of us are God and that therefore we cannot fully comprehend His decisions. Also, the fact that we are not God should serve to keep us humble. What a fascinating group of articles. They really helped me. God bless you. I want to take a moment and profusely thank you for posting these fascinating studies about election.
