Yesterday I shared with you some of the fun things people - who just happened to be three readers of grandma's cookie jar! - are saying about my new book. So, today I thought it would be fun to share a few more comments from people who read grandma's cookie jar; including some of my family, too!
- “This new book from Lynda Freeman is an excellent tool to help grandparents and parents grow in their own walk, so they can lead the children they love further into the truths found in the Bible! Deeper In 4 Grandparents & Parents, Too! will help you form simple, heart felt prayers with your grandchildren /children. By praying Scripture back to God, we can expand our thinking and grow in our walk with Him. ”Faye Ann Bristol: Mom of five, Grandma of 12 & Great-grandma of three (my mom!)
“Deeper in 4 Grandparents & Parents, Too! is a compass for all praying grandparents and parents to help strengthen and equip their families to navigate life's troubled waters in this time of moral upheaval and uncertainty, while standing firmly on God's Word.”Loretta Baughan; Mom of three & Author of Spaniel Journal (my sister!)
- “I'm a grandmother of four beautiful grandchildren from my two daughters. I found Lynda's blog through a Google search one day not long after I became a new grandmother. I've followed her since and have been richly blessed by her love for the Word of the Lord and her own grandchildren. She has taught me so many wonderful ways to pass on my Faith to my own grandchildren.This book is a wonderful addition to any grandparent’s library. It not only is a book of prayers to pray for your grandchildren, it is a wonderful weekly Bible study made simple for busy grandmother's. It is broken down into daily prayer and study which makes it very doable. A feature I was thrilled to see as I am a caregiving grandma. Wonderful book!”Terri Conner; Mom to 2 & Grandma to 4 (one of the original readers of grandma's cookie jar!)
- “After reading Deeper in 4 Grandparents & Parents, Too! Praying the Scriptures for the Children You Love – Old Testament Edition, my commitment to pray for my grandson has deepened. It is so important in today's busy and hectic world, in which our grandchildren are growing up, we, as Christian grandparents, pray not only for our grandchildren, but for our grown children as well.I grew up without Grandparents and know the void I felt when others around me talked about their relationships with their grandparents. I longed for this as a child. So, now I have the opportunity to invest in my grandson's life, and am taking full advantage of it!Having a well written Bible study/prayer book to refer to will give me an awesome opportunity to connect with our Loving and Wonderful Father in Heaven as I commit to an ongoing, structured prayer life for my grandson, my sons and for myself as well.I have known Lynda Freeman for over 30 years, as she is my wonderful sister-in-law! Our children are very close in age, so we were parenting at the same time, even though distance kept us apart, as we live in California and Lynda and her husband David live in Michigan. We both saw the love of our spouses’ parents for their grandchildren; it is a relationship my sons, now 31 and 29 years of age, consider to be PRICELESS. I now have the opportunity to have this kind of relationship with my grandson.Lynda, I want to say, thank you, for writing this wonderful book encouraging grandparents across the street and around the Nation to pray for our grandchildren, to lift them up in prayer, and to love them unconditionally. I know this book will make a change in my prayer life for my grandson, and pray it will make a difference in yours as well.”Curtis Chipley; Dad to two & “Papa to the one and only, Parker!" (my brother-in-law!)
About a dozen people have taken a look at my book and then wrote what they think . . . I'm so happy to hear they like it! And, they are not all related to me! Thank you everyone for your kind words!
Stay tuned . . . when it releases I'll be having a give-away!
