recomendations!!

i want to take this oppertunity to wish everyone a very happy new year... hopefully i will blog a lot more now that i am more settled and have the internet full time.
i have made it my new years resolution to read the bible more, and to follow my daily reading plan bible reading plan

This is the bible in a year and is a fair amount of reading each day, but i think that in the most it is very managable and easy to follow... what i really like about this plan is that it only has 25 days in each month, this is so you can either choose to have 1 day of a week, or (as i like the extra few days for) catching up on the bits that you have fallen behind on, if that applies. or re going over the more difficult bits again etc to try and get the most out of the reading. I really recommend this reading plan to anyone, especially if they are after a bit of structure in there reading.

another recommendation i think i really want to give is to a CD called Awesome God. It is a childrens CD done by sovereign grace ministries. For two good reviews of the CD i recommend you read Paul and dave's reviews. All i want to say is that i feel it is a CD that can be enjoyed not only by those that are children, but by adults too. It is teaching such important things through the lyrics that are made easy for a child to understand, and if they are unable to then it can lead into some good discussions with parents or people from church about the meaning of the words.
The music is very plesant and enjoyable. The music is catchy and easy to learn. it makes it fun for children.
I LOVE the CD case to. I love the different options you can choose for the cover, it makes the whole thing feel a lot more personal, whilst making it more fun.
I will deff be ordering my own copy soon as i think it is a must have!!
check out Awesome God CD for samples of the music and a chance to buy the CD yourself.

My third and final review is a book called Christian Beliefs, 20 basics every christian should know, by Wayne Grudem.
I have found this book VERY easy to read and understand, and it has been very enjoyable in the process. It is packed with bible references, and uses these to make his points. I have learnt an aweful lot through this book and it has helped me to understand things better too. It has helped me to confirm some thoughts that i already had about issues such as death and has pointed me in the right direction biblicly so i know clearer now where i stand with certain issues.
It is written so that anyone can read it wether christian or not, and i think would be excellent for a new christian, and old christians alike. It has incresead my passion for learning more and i hope to continue to do so.
You can get a copy of this book through Amazon deff a good read!!
( sorry that this is not very well written but pain is not great and i am now also very tired, but i hope this makes sence to you!?)

well that is all for my recomendations right now...
