Just wanted to share some of the great books I've read recently... check these out (after you've read Dependence Day) The Power of a Praying Wife - on my second copy, have worn out the first... and The Power of a Praying Parent by Stormie Omartain Seven Life Principles for Every Woman by Sharon Jaynes and Lysa Terkeurst - as a good friend and mentor told me after borrowing this book from me....

I would definitely recommend that all LEOWs read Because I'm Suitable and refer back to it often. For those new to the LEO life, it provides valuable insight and guidance. Those who have been in this life for awhile will find acknowledge...
Good book about a true hero and community servant. Did make me wonder about how the officer who was injured was honored, how he is doing and what was done for him and his family.
Quick, inspirational read. Officer Coyle does a great job of tying everyday experiences (for a law enforcement officer) to God's providence. We are here for but a season, yet here for a reason.
