Growing stronger in your faith is a great resolution, I think we all could use some work in that area - at least I know I sure could :) If you love fantasy with Godly morals this will be the place for you! We're not limited to Christian fiction, but I know at least several of us enjoy reading it so hopefully you'll get some good book Laurie Luckinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00456113371420700748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-37265838006559250712016-01-03T20:22:31.155-06:002016-01-03T20:22:31.155-06:00So excited to participate in this blog..

Expand upon my cooking skills by participating in a potluck dinner once a month, cooking within a theme and using only new recipes. Nice way to catch up with friends as well!<br />2. Expand upon my knitting skills by taking knitting classes (thanks Laurie for your Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12976985091700415978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633977426784875178.post-4463343770783170692016-01-03T18:39:39.315-06:002016-01-03T18:39:39.315-06:00Hey everyone!

And leading to rely on God's strength because mine is not enough. I have to say, I love fantasy. It's a great way to adventure in a land we create. But I especially love when a Godly moral is thrown in. It is definitely encouraging for me.

That means I actually have to schedule writing time on a calendar, though! Exercise is great, too. It is amazing how often I see things in nature on a walk that show up in my books, later. <br />Good luck with your resolutions, everyone!<br />Erin Erin Hawley Croninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01013780128144779671noreply@blogger.com
