A Merry Little Christmas by Anita Higman


Fall in love with this cozy story about two people from different worlds.

Franny Martin is an Oklahoma farm girl who's preparing to spend the holidays alone...again. Then Charlie Landau shows up one day, all wealth and polish, and offers to buy Franny's farm. Franny has no money to speak of, but she is clever and spirited, and she's more than happy to sell the farm and move to the city.

As Sinatra croons from the radio and Christmas descends upon her charming farm, Franny teaches Charlie the curious and sometimes comical ways of country life. In the process, they unearth some discoveries of the heart-that sometimes love comes when you're least ready for it. Will the holidays bring their most impossible dreams within reach?

Here is my review of this wonderful holiday romance:

First of all, I would like to extend a heartfelt “Thank you” to Anita Higman and her publisher for sending me a copy of "A Merry Little Christmas" to review for them. I am truly grateful for this generosity. I really appreciate the time, effort and expense it takes to make a reviewer copy available to me.

“A Merry Little Christmas” by Anita Higman is a lovely Christmas romance about a man and a woman chasing after their dreams, which leads them across each other’s paths. Franny grew up on an Oklahoma farm, but she has dreamed of “being near the music” for as long as she can remember. So she puts her family farm up for sale and waits for her opportunity to become a radio disc jockey.

Charlie Landau is a rich man who has failed at every venture he’s pursued. He wants to prove to his father that he is ready to run the family businesses, but he’s always dreamed of living on a farm.

Filled with charm and romance and godliness, this charming love story shows how long-term bondage can be conquered by love and truth. This book is a wonderful way to spend a winter day by the fire.

Homiletics Training: Content

Homiletics .   By definition, “homiletic” is the art of preaching or writing sermons.   I think we would all agree that our pastors study the Bible thoroughly to deliver sermons every Sunday to their congregations.   The beautiful news is that every child of God can use this discipline to study the Bible for themselves. As a member of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Leadership, part of my required preparation each week is to prepare homiletics for the passage we are studying.   BSF offers an engaging seminar on how to use this method to study the Scriptures.   I’ve taken the seminar several times under two different leaders and I’ve learned something new every time I’ve attended.   I’ve also been doing the process of homiletics for over ten years and I can say that there is no better teacher than the Holy Spirit in this process!   So keep practicing.   Keep sharing and discussing.   I’ve been posting my homiletics on this blog for quite a while, now.   And I would like to share wit
