Prata Potpourri: Susie Spurgeon, The Tone Police, Female Preachers, Accessories, More

By Elizabethprata @elizabethprata
Here are a few items for your consideration tonight.
It's been a cool fall day here in north Georgia, and I appreciate this season so much. The oppressive heat has broken and the days are crystal clear and bright. One of these fine days, Jesus will blow the trumpet of God and call us home. We will zoom through the air to meet Him and He will escort us, His Bride, to the place He has been preparing. It's something to keep on our minds and to look forward to.
Meanwhile, why are there so many female preachers?
Accessories! I love accessories! Not scarves or purses, spiritual discipline accessories. Elizabeth Johnson likes to make intercession prayer cards. If you do too, her page shows you how. M Scott has a scripture card maker that's pretty cool. You can print them out and laminate them, or add them to a ring, or just tote around in your pocket.
Prata Potpourri: Susie Spurgeon, The tone police, female preachers, Accessories, moreMore accessories! I love this bookstand. If you have a thick systematic theology or Bible or theological book you're reading and take notes while you read, this handy prop keeps the pages open and the book lifted up so you can be hands-free. The stand can be lifted to different levels from straight up to nearly flat. PS oh, yah, it works for cookbooks too! On Amazon.
Rachel Jankovic, who wrote Motherhood: A Call to Arms webinar, and books Loving the Little Years and Fit To Burst, is coming out wiht a new book this month. I've been promised an advance copy and I'll review it for you.
Speaking of books, finally! A bio of Susannah Spurgeon.
