Book Reviews With The Armed Historian

Join me in looking at the biography of Sergei Golev. His biography, "Against the Tide," recounts his work as an evangelist in the Soviet Union. This is a great book for self reflection! Consider your own faith while reading this and ask yourself if you would have stood as strong as he did! Disclaimer: This is another review that I recorded in June but was delayed in posting.....so when I wish you a great summer at the end.....that is clearly in the past now, so now I wish you a lovely autumn!

Disclaimer......I recorded this book review this past spring! At that time I had finished up my first (and last - for now) year of teaching and was transitioning into a role of homeschooling stay-at-home-mom. More changes have since developed, however, as life continues to be a bit tumultuous. It just goes to show that we as humans can have the best laid plans and think we know what we're going to do in the upcoming weeks and months....but God knows our path, and we often find ourselves going in a different than planned direction. ANYWAY! LOL! All that to say that the intro is a bit outdated and life continues to change. But I didn't want to go through the hassle of re-recording. It is what it is - take it or leave it. BUT! This book was a great read. It was a short book but not the easiest for my stressed brain to focus on. But I found it extremely helpful and enlightening in explaining the passage Matthew 24. Enjoy!

This book is one that all Christians should read....more than once! It is SO GOOD!

Good Evening listeners,  Today, I bring you a book review on Toby Sumpter's book, "No Mere Mortals."   This one is a must read folks.  Be sure to get the book and read it.     Just a couple of things I said I'd share in the description:  Here's the link for "End Abortion Now" - https://endabortionnow.com/  And the link to the Aborted Babies in DC - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GO5cFw4Wd2U  Let me know your thoughts!     Also, very aware that I mispronounced Pederasty but didn't want to rerecord everything for that one small correction.  Sorry.

Happy Monday my dear listeners.  Today I felt inspired to bring you a Monday Moment for your contemplation regarding Modesty and then how Modesty affects Breastfeeding.     My opinion is not a popular opinion but one I call you to consider if you profess to be a believing Christian.

Welcome to Book Reviews with The Armed Historian! And this may seem super strange, that my first book is not a history or theology book (my usual go to genres).  But, I borrowed this book from a friend....a while ago (how embarrassing) and I need to get it returned to her.  So we're going to start here with Not A Diet Book by James Smith.
