Book Review: Too Good To Be False by Tom Gilson
Being a Christian blogger comes with certain perks. One of those perks is getting to occasionally join launch teams for books. As a book worm who is always looking forward to my next book to read, I love the job of getting to read pre-released manuscripts! Too Good to Be False caught my eye and attention recently. When I had the opportunity to join the launch team, I was thrilled. It took longer than I care to admit for me to sit down and actually read the book.

Current Reads-You Lost Me
Six kids regularly attended Sunday School with me at our small country church. Of those six, I am the only one who still attends church. We host a Vacation Bible School each year to reach out to kids within the community. Our average number of attendees has been about 60 kids. Of those who have regularly attended each VBS program when they were of the age to, only about 5 still attend a church regularly. There are at least 15 solid, Bible-believing, active churches within our county that has a population of over 7,000 people. (I live in a very rural area of America-I know!) Each of these churches has similar…
