ReplyDeleteSorry, I tried to post a comment and messed up! Anyway, this is a nice post. I have the first Anne Ortlund book that you listed here. It is full of wisdom isn't it? I see you are fairly new to blogging. Are you having fun? I have 3 blogs. I hope you'll stop by for a visit. Take care and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteLoved that book Disciplines of the Beautiful Woman. I have a friend who knows Anne Ortlund personally and she's the same in person as in her books, even better so I'm told.
ReplyDeleteBonita, I recently took time to email Anne Ortlund to thank her for the wealth of wisdom she provided over the years. I was delighted to receive a gracious response.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, your blogs are so encouraging to me. Thank you for writing about writing!
