I ought to have another read. Francis Schaeffer on music and art is on my "to read" list.DeliveringGracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08320150355352857841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1272887249587912361.post-36562604945415985652015-09-29T11:06:43.126+01:002015-09-29T11:06:43.126+01:00Have you ever read any of the Schaeffer books?

They have real heart and a lot of common sense. Even the parts which are dated are still helpful reminders that hospitality for both strangers, friends and family is primarily a heart issue and can be done regardless of status, riches or tidiness! claireshomeeducationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697524025087880484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1272887249587912361.post-56486647471982606782015-09-26T14:50:42.758+01:002015-09-26T14:50:42.758+01:00Nelleke, thank you so much.

If you'd like something totally different, how about poetry? A Sacrifice of Praise is an anthology of Christian poetry throughout history edited by James H Trott. It's one of my "desert island" books. Reformed theology: When Grace Comes Home by Terry Johnson is one of my all-time favourites, highlighting the practical implications of the doctrines of grace. On marriage and family: Family Vocation by Gene Edward Veith and his daughter Mary Moerbe applies Martin Luther's doctrine of vocation to marriage and family. If you like lighter reading, Jan Karon is always fun, and so is Alexander McCall Smith's No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series. There. You have most of my favourites. :)Education is a Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09630031813554150232noreply@blogger.com
