No, this will not become a series. Although, who knows?! If you guys keep sending me great links perhaps it will. I seem to get my coolest info from my internet peeps.
Today's deal:
Stepping Heavenward, by Elizabeth Prentiss
"How dreadfully old I am getting! Sixteen!" Thus begins the lifelong diary of young Katherine as she pours out her hopes, dreams, and spiritual journey on the pages of her dear, old journal. Whimsical and charming Katherine is engagingly candid about her character flaws and her desire to know God. As you listen to her share her heart through these journal entries, you will be amazed and delighted by the depth of her character and the womanly wisdom and godliness she develops over the years. From the agonies of being a teenager to the delicate balancing act between being a wife/mother/daughter/neighbor, it is easy to relate to Katherine's triumphs and trials whether you are 16 or 60. Listen to her unforgettable story set in the early 1800's as you are encouraged to "step heavenward," and don't be surprised if you find yourself recommending it to all of your friends and family!
This is the unabridged version of this wonderful classic book, with a great new reading by Theresa Downey, just published at Librivox.org, and far superior to earlier versions. If you've never read or heard this story before, do yourself and your young ladies a favor and download it today!

Thanks Brite. I was looking for something to listen to while I did the weekly-fridge clean-organize chore and this popped up! Coincidence? I think not. :)
Way to go for cleaning your fridge every week! :)
How fun to have someone else read Stepping Heavenward to me! thanks for the link.
BTW- Your new profile picture looks amazing, very beautiful - and I'm not just saying that because I never make your blog of the week list. (Even though last time I whined about it you said it was because I never post, but I just finished a whole doggone series and still....I don't see my blog name up in lights.)
I haven't changed the Blog of the Week in months- my fault, and I will remedy that right away!
