God has not promised skies always blue, flower-strewn Pathways all our lives through.
God has not promised sun without rain, joy without sorrow, peace without pain.
But God has promised strength for the day, rest for the laborer, light on the way, grace for the trial, help from above, unfailing sympathy, undying Love. (unknown)

Books
I have a 'library' full of books and as I read them, if I like them I will add a link here:
Bibles
The Inspirational Study Bible, General Editor-Max Lucado - This bible is great for devotionals, and reading through and understanding the Bible. Each day there is a Life Lesson which includes a section of passages to read, explains the Situation, gives some Observations, has an Inspirational devotion reading, gives some Applications, and then Exploration passages to read further on the subject.
NIV Study Bible - This is a great study bible. It has given me more understanding and insight into the scriptures. It is a great help/tool.
Max Lucado
Max Lucado is my favorite non-fiction Christian author. His writing touches you, and draws you in. Really brings truths to light, and makes them easy to understand. I highly recommend his writings. Most books have a study guide in the back.
A Gentle Thunder "With pictures and parables from everyday life, Max Lucado, calls us to trust in tough times. God's goal, Max reminds, is to get us home safely. He'll do whatever it takes to save his children. God's thunder is gentle. And his gentleness never ends."
And The Angels Were Silent This book deals with the final week of Jesus
God Came Near - "Max Lucado reminds us that Jesus was no run-of-the-mill Messiah. His was the most remarkable life to ever stir the dust of humanity" This book helps you to really see Jesus.
He Still Moves Stones - This book reminds us that the God who spoke still speaks, who forgave still forgives. He can do what we can't, and He is there when we are hurting.
In The Eye of the Storm - A day in the life of Jesus, the second most stressful day of His life. Max Lucado shows us how Jesus deals with those stresses. An excellent book if you are feeling stressed out!
In the Grip of Grace - an excellent book and study on the book of Romans
No Wonder They Call Him the Savior - a study on the Cross
On the Anvil - short stories great for use a devotional, showing how God can shape us
Six Hours One Friday - "Once again Max Lucado takes us to the foot of the cross where we find hope for life's tough issues."
The Applause of Heaven - Max Lucado takes us on an encounter with the Source of Joy. Shows us there is a joy that circumstance cannot quench, and a peace which cannot be taken away from us.
When God Whispers Your Name - Max Lucado shows us how God helps us to overcome our doubts, sorrow and despair to hope again.
The Great House of God - A study on the Lord's Prayer

Marjorie Holmes
I have really enjoyed 3 of her books that I have read: Two from Galilee , Three from Galilee, and The Messiah. They bring the life of Christ to life in novel form. Great reading!
Frank Peretti
I have really enjoyed this authors writings that take us behind-the-scenes of spiritual warfare. My two favorites are This Present Darkness and Piercing the Darkness. They are great, on-the-edge-of-your-seat books! They're a fun read.

Movies
These are some movies that I have seen and recommend. The first two are a definite must see in wide screen if you can find it.
Ben Hur - A classic! Great movie and awesome message!
The Robe - This is the story of a Roman centurion in charge of the crucifixion, who wins Jesus' robe, gambling at the foot of the cross. His life is forever changed by this one event.
A Man Called Peter - The inspiring story of Peter Marshall. (His wife is Catherine Marshall, a writer.)

Music
These are my top 3 favorite CCM artists/bands. I also listen to a lot of others and as I have time I will add them here. In the meantime you can also visit the Christian Music Webring
Rich Mullins
He may be gone, but his music goes on. Taken from us too soon he left us with a legacy of inspiring, original music.
