MY REVIEW:
Frozen turned out to be better than I expected. It's a tale of two sisters, Elsa and Anna, who are princesses in the kingdom of Arendelle. Elsa was born with a special power: she has the ability to create ice and snow. This special power could be seen as a blessing (she can create most spectacular ice sculptures or wonderful fluffy white snow just by waving her hands) or a curse (whatever she touches with her bare hands becomes frozen). When her icy power traps her kingdom in frozen condition during summer and she flees, Anna teams up with an ice salesman, Kristoff and his loyal reindeer Sven to find Elsa, hoping to convince her to help their beloved kingdom. Along the way, they meet a funny, friendly snowman named Olaf. My family and I really enjoyed this movie. We laughed out loud quite a bit. We also love the music and songs in Frozen. Remarkable animation! I'm glad that the movie does not put much emphasis on magic but instead, it focuses on love vs. fear. True love is sacrificial love. Fear freezes and isolates us while love frees and bonds us. The film highlights the beautiful relationship between sisters! We definitely want to get a DVD of this one to add to our Disney collections :)!

DVD Review and Giveaway: A Mile in His Shoes

A Mile in His Shoes is a family-friendly movie (PG) about a young man diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism) and how his God-given talent (his amazing throwing ability) helps him and others. It's about overcoming challenges in life. It is based on the book "The Legend of Mickey Tussler" (a true story). It's directed by William Dear, the director of "Angels In the Outfield." It stars Dean Cain who plays Arthur Murphy, a baseball coach and Luke Schroder who plays Mickey, the main character. Excellent performances! My family and I enjoyed this movie. It spoke to my heart deeply because one of my kids has symptoms that are similar to Asperger's Syndrome but the doctors diagnosed him with anxiety disorder, instead. My son is very athletic and great with numbers like Mickey. He is also sensitive to noise and crowds like Mickey. When Coach Murphy sees Mickey (a farmer boy) throw apples at a bucket for his pigs, he knows that he has just fo...

Book Review: Immeasurably More: 100 Devotions on God's Extravagant Grace by Deb Burma

I was excited to review this devotional book for 3 reasons: 1. I collect devotional books, 2. I'm a big fan of God's grace, and 3. The theme of our church's women retreat this year (this weekend) is Ephesians 3: 20-21, " Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory ." which is also the theme for this book. Immeasurably More is a beautiful and meaningful devotional journal. It has 100 devotions organized into 10 different topics (grace, love, power, provision, purpose, peace, joy, gifts, rest, and life). Each devotion starts with Scriptures and ends with journaling and prayer prompts. This journal can be used individually or in a group study.  I have been blessed and refreshed by God's wondrous truths and Godly insights found in this book. These encouraging, inspiring devotions invite readers to bask in God's goodness and to experience His never-ending, jaw-drop...
