Book Review: Nelson's Complete Book of Bible Maps and Charts



Nelson, in the fashion we have come to know and expect has delivered yet another quality and informative commentary right into our hands! Nelson’s Complete books of bible Maps and Charts, Third Edition, does not disappoint. I would also add that this book delivers to both the literary lover and the seeker of facts and purposes.


The chronological geographically demographics in this book are amazing! My need to know the time and place is answered specifically here in each chapter. I know that in order to have true knowledge of the Bible you need faith that it is God’s word, but when you have foundational knowledge it can deepen God’s truth in your everyday life. Factual knowledge of the places and people in God’s word enhances the faith of each individual and is essential to the nurturing of the relationship with our Savior.

In each era and through each prophet a truth of God was tested in their belief systems and woven into the chords of their hearts and minds. God sets out for His truth to be revealed in many lives and for all time.

I received this book through Thomas Nelson’s Book Sneeze program for Bloggers. I was not paid to or encouraged to give a positive review but upon utilizing this book I was compelled. I pray you enjoy it in your studies as I have and will continue to do.


Sincerely,

Chel

Eh hem.....Is this thing on?

Howdy! I can't believe that I actually remembered how to begin a new post!!!

I have missed this and missed the meme's and the eFellowship like you cannot believe! In the last 4 months a lot of wonderful things have been going on....lots of lessons learned....more experiences....more ideas...and now here I am with post open and I got nothing! L-O-L. But not really, truly I have way toooo much and just don't know where to begin! So I will start with today!

Today is my husband's birthday!
He doesn't like me telling everyone (when he can hear it) so I thought I would shout it out all over the internet!

Happy Birthday Kip!
Our cruise a while back!

Next you will see that I have made some "HYSTERICAL" road stops along the way!



This is my son! Note the shirt! We are crazy...and it is for HIM!

And now (not that I am not proud of the other two BUT......) my daughter who has been playing golf for 2 years made it to Regionals and made a showing in her district! We are so proud of her and how hard she has been working! I will have more on that journey later; there are some hilarious moments to share!

We are so proud of you!

Well that's all folks! More later when I have more time!
Tootles I gotta scootles!
