“Desire is inflamed by seeing. We need to fix our eyes on worthier things.” Jen Wilkin, pg. 89

I can't think of anything worthier than God and His Word.

Psalm 119:15-16 I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways. I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word. ESV

Hebrews 12:1-3 And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. NIV

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. ESV

Book Review: A Quarter for a Kiss, Christian Romantic Suspense


Book Review: A Christian Romantic Suspense 

Callie Webber is a likable character—funny, courageous, and loyal to her friends. Tom Bennett, Callie’s boyfriend and her boss, is more of an enigma. Lots of questions surrounding his involvement with covert activities. Together, they try and discover who attempted to kill Callie’s old friend and mentor, Eli Gold. There are many twists and turns, and the main storyline is resolved at the end, but Callie and Tom’s relationship is left to be resolved in the last book in this series. All in all, A Quarter for a Kiss is a good summer read.
