Consider Jesus: Daily Reflections on the Book of Hebrews by Donald R. Jacobs Review

  Good Morning Bookish Friends :) I pray today finds you all doing well, and I'm so thankful you've taken the time to drop on by The Preppy Book Princess today for another book review. I'm Kirby, and I'm always thrilled to welcome you over to my little corner of the internet.

I want to spend more time studying the scriptures and learning more of the meaning behind them, and I'm enjoying finding titles that are helping me do so. A couple of years ago, an elderly man who has been a longtime friend of my family's wanted to downsize his ginormous book collection. He told me to help myself to whatever books I wanted, and I ended up taking home quite a few.  A lot of these titles were either older/and or les...
