One year our pastor gave us twenty-five scriptures, one a week for twenty-five weeks, urging us to memorize one each week. Frankly, my friend, I laughed when the pastor advanced such a frightening thought at my age of seventy-six. I was doing good as a youth to memorize John 3:16 and the twenty-third Psalm. No chance at my age and IQ level! Then the laughing ended abruptly when, in a most alarming voice, God let me know he wanted me to memorize every one of those assigned scriptures. Although memorizing a verse a week might seem as intimidating, you will find it surprisingly easy when you allow God to guide you. In Friendly Fireside Meditations, Don outlines twenty-five verses that will help you draw nearer to God as you write His word upon your heart. The conversational and moving daily meditations that accompany each week's memory verse will help further encourage you in your new undertaking. Don't stand out in the cold, come warm yourself with the word of God! This book is dedicated to the hungry, ill-clothed and ill-housed children and their families wherever they are. Note that after printing costs the money from this book will go to missions such as Deni's Isaiah 58 In His Service Ministry, and to all the others she and I know to be so helpful to hurting children and adults.

Many victims suffer in secrecy, and begin the healing process only when they reach adulthood. This daily meditation book addresses areas of particular concern to survivors of incest, including intimacy, self-image, sexuality, anger at the family, and relationships.
