Grace for Your Self-Doubt: "Candid Moments" Book Review

Forgiveness isn't just a one-time event; it’s a daily lifestyle. ✨ Candid Moments is the soul-refreshing guide every woman needs. #ChristianLiving #IndieFaith #LivingInLight

In Candid Moments: Living in Light of the Gospel, Heather Hart and her co-authors invite us into the raw, honest spaces where faith meets the everyday grind.

One of the things I treasure most about the indie faith community is the willingness to be candid. This isn't a glossy, "perfect life" devotional; it’s a collection of real moments from women who are navigating self-doubt, failure, and the messy parts of relationships. Hart, Gambito, and Treu remind us that the Gospel isn't just for that first "yes" to Jesus—it’s the oxygen we need to breathe every single day. It’s about how that message of mercy reaches from yesterday into our very real tomorrow.

I love how this book breaks down the Gospel’s impact into the "and so much more" of life. Whether you’re dealing with a personal failure or struggling to interact with a difficult person, these stories show that grace is a practical tool for survival and joy. It feels like sitting down for coffee with a group of friends who are all trying to figure out how to let the truth of Scripture shape their reactions and their peace. If you’re feeling like your spiritual tank is low, these candid reflections are the perfect recharge station. It’s relatable, encouraging, and deeply grounded.

Rating: 4.5/5 Lofts 🪵 Why: It’s a beautifully honest anthology that makes the Gospel feel accessible and immediate. The multiple perspectives from different women provide a rich, well-rounded look at what it means to walk in grace.

Across Three Continents: A Tale of Power, Deception, and the Brutal Shadow of Slavery

A mesmerizing historical epic that masterfully weaves truth with lies through an unreliable narrator whose ambition knows no bounds. Agawu-Kakraba's "The Restless Crucible" burns with unforgettable intensity! 🌍📜🔥 #HistoricalFiction #AfricanDiaspora #SlaveTradeNarrative Freedom fighter or opportunistic villain? In Yaw Agawu-Kakraba's spellbinding historical novel "The Restless Crucible," the answer depends entirely on who's telling the story. From the moment we meet Pedro de Barbosa—self-described ex-slave, con artist, slave trader, warmonger, and lover—we're pulled into a narrative that brilliantly challenges our understanding of truth itself. What begins as Pedro's memoir quickly reveals itself as something far more complex and fascinating. Agawu-Kakraba employs a truly innovative narrative structure where the omniscient narrator eventually wrests control from Pedro, exposing the protagonist's manipulations and fantasies for what they t...
