Accountability

Lately, that's what it has been about... accountability.  So our church is doing a study that has daily readings.  I always set out to read studies like this every day but usually I'll fall behind a few days and before I know it, I've quit all together!  So this time, on the day before our first reading, I set up an accountability group and a few people from my church joined it.  I was hoping for everyone to post when they read it for accountability and a few have here and there but it has really worked for me!  I have not missed a day yet of reading because I started this group and feel it really does hold me accountable and I'm so glad.  I'm enjoying this time every day.

Recently, DH (the wonderful man he is) bought me a Kindle Fire and I have become a huge a fan.  I have signed up for a few alerts to free books and yesterday there was a great find!   It's No Secret: Revealing Divine Truths for Women by Rachel Olsen.

It's free on Kindle and Nook this week only. (update:  it's no longer free but still a good read!) So, I decided to use this study when we finish the one from church in about 2 weeks.  I am very excited about it. So much so that I just started another group for this one on Facebook where I can hold myself accountable again.  So, if any of you would like to join me here is the link to the group on Facebook.  I'd love to have you join me!  If not, I'll just hold myself accountable. :o)

Here's what amazon says about this book:
