12 Books of 2025 + 12 for Kids

It's that time again... time to share the stories we've read and wisdom we've gained in the last year. I continued my commitment to read at least one book a month, and now I want to share my favorites with you ...and 12 titles for young readers, too!I've said it before but reading requires discernment. We must be wise and discerning of what thoughts and information we allow into our minds and our hearts. For this reason, I practice the "chew and spit" method to reading and choosing new material. I take a first bite, and if it's nourishing, that is, if it aligns with the truth of God's Word, I take another bite. If it doesn't, I spit it out. These are a few of the books which I have chewed and chewed on this year, which the Holy Spirit has come alongside and nourished me - mind, soul and spirit. I share in hopes one or a few might intrigue you to read and chew upon.C A N D A C E  C O F E Rauthor + speaker ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠website⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠instagram⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠youtube⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠facebook⁠
