This is the second book in the Christian Fiction Good News Series.

Some time has passed since Enough Good News and Sidney is settled into her new family, new job and new church. She soon discovers however that all that glitters isn't gold and everyone talking about heaven ain't going.

Weak church leaders fall easily under the influence of dark forces targeting Sidney. These men of God begin to spread lies and false rumors about her to everyone they can, turning most of her family and friends against her, not realizing that they are leaving their own families and congregations open for the destruction they have planned for Sidney.

It is with all this going on that God seems to be nowhere in sight, but don't worry...God is not mocked and sometimes He provides help in the most unexpected ways.

Growing fan!

Much better than the first! And while I like that author narrated the story, I was disappointed in the monotone narration. smh... Oh well, at least the timing was on point!

I also loved the themes of spiritual warfare and how even Christians can be influenced by demonic forces! Good job!

The Law of Attraction

Would you listen to Cosmic Ordering with Vision Boards again? Why?

Yes, its quite motivating and inspiring

What other book might you compare Cosmic Ordering with Vision Boards to and why?

Its like the Secret, Barbel Mohr's cosmic ordering service or Stephen Richards - all on the same vein of the law of attraction but this one goes into vision boards which is different, and something I've not really seen before. I like the idea of creating a board. I think it adds to just the verbal or written affirmations or just wishful thinking. I also liked the way it compels you to write your goals and actions to get there. Other books just tell you to literally 'think' or 'speak' it into existence!

Have you listened to any of Lisa Newtons other performances before? How does this one compare?

-

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No - I had to stop, start, pause, think and take note.

Any additional comments?

I'm feeling quite positive and encouraged. Anything is possible!!!

FANTASTIC book!!

I absolutely loved this book. Although the concepts were not entirely new to me, the author's spin on it was. It was absolutely perfect for what I needed. The concept of adding 3D objects to your vision board was seriously fantastic! I loved the reinforcement of bringing your vision board alive by involving spirit and other things. Thank you Lisa Newton. Your book was a God send to me this week and for years to come. Onwards with the manifesting!

Excellent Book

Would you listen to Cosmic Ordering with Vision Boards again? Why?

Yes, Im already in the 2nd listen and plan to keep listening again and again

Any additional comments?

Never written a review before but felt compelled to write one for this book. Iv listened to and read many many books on the law of attraction and cosmic ordering but this is the best by far.

Members Reviews:

Not for me

Too girlie for me (eg narrator/teen girl talking about 'hot teacher'), somewhat irreverent (eg 'oh my God') and *SPOILER ALERT* it turns out to be a zombie type story, which I generally don't like. Sentence structure/narration was annoying at points (eg. for a while it seemed like every 2nd sentence started with "Jenny did..." and somehow it irritated or distracted me. I think I must not be the target audience for this book. You may like it if you like zombie stuff.

wonderful

Would you listen to Sanctuary again? Why?

A twist on the Zombie Apocalypse and how it could begin. There are lovely characters and their plight is plausible. There are Alien visitors and the delivery system for infection of using dog like animals known as Shesas . The lion face and body of a dog, statues you may see in china. They bite select humans , which leads to infection ,they in turn bite other humans. Through observation of a High School Science teacher Hugh and two orphans a 19 yr old girl and her 5yr old brother start to unravel the mysteries of the behavior of the Shesa.

Great Story!

I really enjoyed the story overall. The spiritual themes seemed to mix well into the story line, most of the time. This was definitely a sci-fi scenario from a woman's perspective, and I think it helped me to become a better writer.

This is definitely a good book to get women into sci-fi, since it was written from a woman's perspective, and was well written.

I am going to be requesting that the author do a sequel. I will be in-line to buy it.

Suspenseful and Gripping!

What did you love best about Sanctuary?

This has a fast moving plot and kept me hooked the whole time. I had a hard time putting it down.

Which character as performed by Lisa Larsen was your favorite?

I though Lisa did a great job with the main character's little brother Mickey. I had no trouble envisioning an innocent and lovable, but scared little boy in the voice she gave him.

Members Reviews:

Intriguing Read

This book was kind of like reading the daily newspaper, and it sure gives you a lot to think about concerning daily events and the future.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, and I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series. I would recommend this book to all Christians; plus, I believe it would be beneficial for everyone to read.

Great Read!

Cliff Ball has given a wonderful overview of how he believes the end times events will happen. All of the books in this saga can be read without the others, but I would advise all to read them in order. This is a terrific start to his 3 book saga. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this, and I do believe that Christians need to take heed of what these stories tell.

Disappointing at best.

This book had so much potential. The political historical matter was apparently well researched, but the writing is dry. Characters and conversations are simply not believable. The book is far underdeveloped. I only finished it so that I could leave an honest review, unfortunately.

Opens Your Eye's

This is my first time reading a book by this author, which I found to be a open your eye's storyline to see and understand what is going on in yesterday's, today's and tomorrow world. I can see some of the things that has been going on for a long time. This book was a very good read.

Cassandra H.

1st ever bad read

Boring..disappointing...never before unable to complete a book due to my love of reading anything. Total wash. Perhaps other books by the author are better.

Title: Don't Rescue Me, God's Molding Me

Subtitle: Snow Series: Meet Savannah, Part 2

Author: Marita Kinney

Narrator: Hillary Hawkins

Format: Unabridged

Length: 1 hr and 41 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-31-13

Publisher: Marita Kinney

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 3 votes

Genres: Fiction, Religious & Inspirational

Publisher's Summary:

Savannah is a sophisticated single mother who has had her share of growing pains. From rags to riches, back to rags, Savannah is determined to change her circumstance through her faith and perseverance. As she struggles to keep her head above water, her new vindictive neighbors try her patience and her faith. She desperately desires for God to rescue her from her new life of struggle.

Members Reviews:

Only a Glimpse, So Much is Missing

Don't Rescue Me, God's Molding Me is mostly about a woman name Savannah who is down and out, but is trying to pick up the pieces in her life. She is a positive character, always trying to be upbeat, and always working to better herself. This story as a whole is very sweet and is very inspiring. But unfortunately, it didn't connect with me.

It felt rushed. I felt like an outsider looking in. I didn't learn anything about Savannah other than she's saved, which is wonderful, but what else is there to her? There's a lot of commentary, telling me what happened or happening. I wanted to "live" the life with Savannah and her neighbors on those pages, but unfortunately, Ms. Kinney didn't provide that experience. Give me something more than characters causing superficial arguments and trouble. As a reader, I want to be in the middle. Not looking through a window and only getting glimpses of the life in that apartment building.

As for the Kindle formatting, it wasn't that great. Huge spaces between paragraphs. Too much space between lines in paragraphs. Grammar and spelling errors were minor, but one check would get rid of the mistakes.

The story overall could have been interesting, if it was expanded more. The author has great potential, and I hope she keeps going in her writing and publishing endeavors.

Easy Relatable Realistic Quick Read

I received this book free from Reading Deals, not for a review, but I wanted to state that anyway :-). Below is my honest opinion.

I enjoyed this book. It was short and to the point and could be read in one sitting. It held my interest as I wanted to see how each character's story ended. There were some grammatical errors, but not so much as it distracted from my reading enjoyment. I cared about each character. I grew up in the inner city which helped me relate to some of the ridiculousness of a couple of the characters. Some of their behavior was sadly laughable as it is how some people truly behave.

One of the 1 star comments asked "who was rescued?" I believe they all were, each of the three main characters, with the exception of the "Bible Thumper." The one who moved into that building was rescued in the sense that she found her purpose. The young girl was received Christ as her Savior. The young girl's mother as she had an encounter with God that changed her life. The door was left open for the "Bible Thumper" to be rescued as a letter was left for her to read at the end of the story.

The only con to this book was the grammatical errors and words misplaced, but again, it was not enough to distract my reading enjoyable.

Use Me Lord For Your Service

I enjoyed this book and the story byline is so typical of today if we are Christians. Christ sometimes allow things to happen to us in order for us to listen to Him and go in the direction that He wants us to go.

Members Reviews:

Friends don't let authors read their own books.

This book seemed interesting so I thought I'd gamble a credit. I actually enjoyed it and will probably read the next book and see what happens.

That being said the story is pretty flawed on a number of levels. First, the story is gun porn on an epic level. Even Larry Corriea would tell Mr. Lee to tone it done a bit. If you don't like that style then take a pass on this one. The author goes into every weapon and magic power in great (often excrutiating detail).

The author does a great job writing action scenes. The characters aren't very well developed but are likeable. Honestly, this seems more like author wish fulfillment than anything. This story reads like a comic book but I like comic books so I enjoyed it. I gave it 3 stars because of writing flaws more than lack of enjoyment.

Another issue is that the author starts sentences and paragraphs with the name of the character being spoken to a whole lot. it can be kind of annoying and gives the writing a staggering, almost Shatner-like quality to the timing. With slow halting sentences followed by several rapid ones following.

The author read his own book. For the love of God please quit doing this! I felt like the guy tried his best and I liked the main characters voice as he sounds like a higher pitched, slightly nasally version of Macleod Andrews (who would be a great narrarator for the series). The reading was bad enough to be entertaining in its awfulness (if that makes sense) more than annoying. it should also get an award for one having one of the worst Scottish accents of all time. He tries but goes from Scottish, to Liverpool English to American all in the same sentence. Not the worst accent I've ever heard in a book but defnitiely the second worst with a bullet.

The cosmology of the series was actually pretty interesting. The humor in the book is pretty good. I enjoyed this one enough to try the next story in the series. This is what I call a solid 3 star story. It has some good points but is series flawed in many areas. If you want a light action series with humor you might like this one, just don't put it high on your to do list.

The Performance Ruins It

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

I would have likely finished listening to this book if a more engaging, professional narrator had performed it.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I was interested in how a thief could become a paladin.

Publisher's Summary:

Mark has been pastoring New Vision church for six years now, and all his hard work is about to pay off as the church approaches mega-church status. But while Mark has been busy building the church, his own household has been crumbling to pieces. After ignoring divine guidance, Mark finds himself caught up in the appearance of a scandal that threatens to tear the church apart. And his wife's secrets only add insult to near-fatal injury. Sharla would have done just about anything to be a mother and, actually, she did. She was willing to pay the price for her mistakes, but she never dreamed someone else might have to suffer instead. How close can she come to confessing her past without jeopardizing her future?

Stepping Down is the eighth full-length novel from national best-selling author Michelle Stimpson. As the granddaughter of a pastor and the great-granddaughter of a bishop, she explores a conflict many spiritual leaders still encounter today. Listeners will enjoy this fast-paced, hard-hitting novel that addresses the ageless question: How can a man run the church if he can't run his own household?

Members Reviews:

The narrater was awfull.

What would have made Stepping Down better?

Get rid of the narrator

If youve listened to books by Michelle Stimpson before, how does this one compare?

the story line was good.

How could the performance have been better?

edit out the mistakes

What character would you cut from Stepping Down?

good characters

Any additional comments?

the narrator cleared his throat, and grossed me out. I thought something was wrong with the recording until I realized he was repeating the line because he was not reading it right.

He kept mispronouncing the characters names. This was the worse narrator I have every listened to. Because of William Butler I really did not enjoy this book as much as I should have. Please, please review the people that read for you I can promise you will loose listeners If they have to listen to the gross way this man coughed and cleared his throat on the recording. It was truly gross. Michelle you books are really good please don't make this mistake again.

Narration very disappointing

Would you try another book from Michelle Stimpson and/or William Butler?

Not the narrator -- I may purchase another of the author's books.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Family unity and overcoming communication issues.

What didnt you like about William Butlers performance?

There were major problems with the clarity of narrator's speech. Inexcusable issues with (mis) pronunciation and enunciation of words. Lacked the appropriate inflections of the voice that would be expected of someone reading a book aloud. Unpolished, unprofessional.

What character would you cut from Stepping Down?

None

Any additional comments?

N/A

Awful performance by the narrator

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes but only if there is a different narrator.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Good story. I like the author's work.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator was awful. He mispronounced many of the words. The "do-overs" we're not edited out. The volume shifted from low to high. Some of the text was skipped (I guess a recording malfunction) but consequently there were parts of the book I didn't hear.

This is the story of a young woman who lost her parents at the start of their journey west along the Oregon Trail. Close to her as she travels along, is a group of young men and boys who had also lost their parents and had decided to make a new beginning in the west, raising cattle. While bathing at the river one day the woman hears, then sees, a baby crying and she retrieves a young Native American infant found propped up against a tree. The wagon full of brothers helps take care of the baby but they are all cautioned to keep the child a secret from the rest of the wagon train. It is very hard and all of them seek God's help in both resolving the crisis, and keeping the child safe.

Members Reviews:

a new family

This is a very interesting and believe able story. Young people in the days of wagon trains and settling this country had to help their family. They learned by doing chores such as gathering wood and hauling water when they were probably 3 or 4 years old. They didn't get away with whining or having a fit but learned do what they were told. The family of boys took to helping the young woman who also had been orphaned and the baby she had found. It was a logical solution they came up with after each of them had put their trust in God.

Love in action.

This book shows God's love for His children. He leads them through difficult losses, and shows them how to love. An orphaned baby is cared for by a group of orphans. I don't want to spoil it, so I won't say more. I thought it was a very good story. Christian theme. No bad language or sex. The editing was very bad, leaving the reader to figure out what certain sentences were supposed to actually say or mean. Otherwise, I enjoyed the book. A simple short story. Would like to have read an epilogue that included how the family continued on......maybe a sequel?

Awesome story

I love the story from the beginning to the end, very Christian oriented, I would love to read another one just like it

Very good story

During World War II, Jewish men were forced to box on Saturday night for Nazi entertainment. The winner got extra food. The loser went to the gas chambers.

The year is 1943, and Samson Abrams has just made a life or death decision, coming to the aid of a young Jewish boy being beaten by the Nazis. Before long, Samson's entire family must board the train to Auschwitz. As they arrive at the camp, Dr. Joseph Mengele, a man who will later go down in history as a person of pure evil, oversees the "selection" process. The young, weak, and elderly are all sent to their deaths. Samson tries to attack, but is calmed by Maximilian Kolbe, a Catholic monk also at the camp. For Samson, all of this evil reaffirms his belief that there is no God. Samson is soon recognized as a 1936 Olympic boxing participant and is offered a deal: he can box for his life, but if he loses, he will find himself on Mengele's experimental operating table. Adding to the complexity is the slow renewal of Samson's faith through his relationship with Kolbe. Here, he must somehow reconcile with God while he witnesses the violent, tortured deaths of so many. A historic battle ensues with Hitler, Himmler, Höss, and many of the highest ranking officials in the Nazi Party watchingan incredible final fight which culminates in Mengele himself getting in the ring.

Amazing

. Not for the faint of heart. One of the best novels I've read ever.

Can't stop thinking about this book

The story is one that haunts your thoughts for days after reading. The atrocities of the holocaust are brought vividly to life. Samson is what Saviors/Heroes are supposed to be.

Members Reviews:

This one kept me up for several hours, long past my bedtime, because I did NOT want to stop reading!

This was my first novel to read by Deborah Raney and I was very impressed with how quickly this story grabbed me and kept me interested. You don't know how many times I wanted to jump ahead on my Kindle and find out what happened to Jill, but I didn't cheat! I thought the author put out a great question for us to think about...how seriously do we take our marriage vows? I really have to give Mitch credit for being faithful to his wife, without knowing if he would ever find out the truth about her disappearance. I'm excited to find a new author that writes compelling stories, and I look forward to reading some of her other books soon!

A lot of details little movement

I did not enjoy it. It mainly consisted of a man's search for his wife.

Mostly, a hour by hour, and day by day, personal thoughts some movement towards an expected finish. To say the story is excruciatingly slow, to me, is an understatement.

I generally enjoy books marked "Christian Fiction". I found myself avoiding some of the inner dialogue and looked for quotation marks which moved the story forward. Being a retired Chaplain and Counselor , my viewpoint and experience with grief situations influences my view point a bit. I wanted the book to be better.

Fantastic!

This definitely rated 5 stars from me. Would have been a 6 star rating if they had it. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The plot was pleasantly different from the usual then what I'm use to. The plot and characters were well developed. Mitch and Shelly's story kept my interest with all its twist and turns, from the very beginning until the very end. I would think I knew how it would end and then something would happen to make me think differently and it would happen again. It just really kept my interest throughout. It definitely went on my Read Again list! I highly recommend this book!

Another beautiful novel from Deborah Raney

Deborah Raney is quickly becoming my favorite Christian author. This particular novel brought tears several times throughout the book. The characters and facts were so real that I felt the weight and the agony of the story for hours after I had set the book aside. It was as if this tragedy had happened to my dear friend or family member. Thank you, Deborah Raney for this beautiful book; it's a treasure!

Deeply moving story of love and loss

I felt the pain, frustration, sorrow and finally the peace of knowing your loved one is safe with the Lord. It would be so hard to go through such an experience. Missing and no trace of where she disappeared or what happened. The joy of finding a new love and resolution of what had happened.
