I am ok with not reading what others are if it injures or offends the Spirit. So many other stories! thanks....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03928368438283362650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1873453867984233607.post-35179937421532226662014-01-20T13:09:04.253-05:002014-01-20T13:09:04.253-05:00Great tips, Staci, and you are so humble with your...Great tips, Staci, and you are so humble with your admissions (someone who has gotten it wrong you write). <br /><br />Can't wait to get done with my counseling dissertation and get into fiction again. My reading is so right-brained.

Having a solid foundation enables you to discern whether a book is worth reading or not and also helps discern any redemptive narratives. Books can have many depths.Persishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17686511618515789601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1873453867984233607.post-41728888106364880452014-01-20T08:48:42.917-05:002014-01-20T08:48:42.917-05:00So true.

Now I've learned not to push it into every person I know. ;)<br /><br />Persis and I talked once about the season in our lives in which we were starving for good theology, that season we didn't read fiction at all, and that was fitted and good. As I look back now, I realize that the more solid our theology is, the more we can enjoy fiction and get the most of it. <br /><br />Blessings, Ladies!<br /><br />Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316091397642506393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1873453867984233607.post-6745918561631937662014-01-20T07:12:47.296-05:002014-01-20T07:12:47.296-05:00Thanks Staci.
