How to Listen So Your Kids Will Talk My Review

I received this book in exchange for my honest review from Bethany House Publishing. All opinions are my own  

I finished reading, How to Listen So Your Kids Will Talk, by Becky Harling. I give this book 5/5 stars. The emphasis of this book is all about communication. How to speak and listen to your children with more focus on intentional listening. Whether in preschool of highschool this book will help you understand how to build a strong and solid foundation for a healthy relationship with your child all the way into adulthood. I appreciate the biblical references and illustrations to help parents model how to navigate conflict with grace. I highly recommend this book would make a great Bible study or conference in your church. 

I agree with what the author shares in the first chapter, in fact I have shared this same advice with my friends and family across social media, give your kids a voice. Allow them to speak and allow ourselves to listen to what they have to say. I also appreciate the "Wisdom Tools" after each chapter. Each wisdom tool has wisdom from God where a Scripture verse is shared helping to read what the Word of God says and how to apply it over your life. It also has wisdom for self-care with a few thought-provoking questions that will help you reflect and share from within and finally the wisdom for all ages on how to better your communication with your children from infancy into adulthood.

Make Their Day by Karen Ehman

 I received a copy of this book from Bethany House Publishing in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own. Make Their Day, is a quick book that can be used as a quick guide on how to spread kindness. Sometimes we want to serve others in a way that will make an impact and bless them however we lack in the creativity department on executing our intentions. The book is literally filled with 101 ways we can keep it simple however powerful way to love others well with practical ideas. I enjoyed this book very much and plan on using some of the suggestions I read about. I rate this book a 5 out 5 stars. 

How to Forgive When It Feels Impossible by Peter Horrobin

 If you are struggling with forgiveness, whether it is giving forgiveness or receiving it then this is a good start to understand how freeing forgiveness can be for you. The book with the same title as this blog post is a quick read with only twelve chapters and one hundred twenty-six pages but jam-packed with some good morsels of wisdom. My favorite chapter is chapter ten where the author shares ten keys to follow to be free from the bondage of unforgiveness along with Bible verses.   If you are looking for your next Bible study or book club study topic you should consider using this book for your next meeting! I give this book 4 stars out of 5.   I received this book in exchange for my honest review by Chosen Publishing.
