      <image:caption>Not only is this story of Amy Carmichael’s life amazing because SHE was amazing, but it’s also a worthy read because it is written by Elisabeth Elliot. I love everything Elisabeth writes. Amy, born in Ireland and sent to India, she rescued and raised girls in what she called “Kingdom Business” for the rest of her life. I learned so much from Amma through this book.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Teenage missionary, Katie Davis, went to Uganda for what she thought would be a year. But God filled her heart with a love for the land and the people. She went home to honor her parents’ wishes but soon returned to Uganda for good where we eventually adopted 13 girls and fumbled her way into founding a mission organization. Katie wrote a follow-up book Daring to Hope that explores Katie’s doubts after tragedy. I have not read it yet but based on the first book, I’m sure it’ll be good.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Fabulous story about the beauty of hard work and determination. Also, so much to love about the Pacific North West.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 20 Best Christian Biographies (&amp;amp; More) - Educated</image:title>
      <image:caption>Almost didn’t include this one. It’s a difficult story to stomach hinging on trauma both physical and spiritual within a cult-culture. It has little redeeming value so I highly recommend reading it with Out of Zion for a full biblical education in Mormonism.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - 20 Best Christian Biographies (&amp;amp; More) - Hillbilly Elegy</image:title>
      <image:caption>J.D. Vance has an interesting heritage, part Appalachian Mountain part inner city. Despite all odds, he ended up at Harvard Law School and went on to fight social justice in the legal system, especially for those on death row. His rags to riches (sort of) story highlights the hardships of poverty in American today as well as the complicated intricacies of prison reform. Honestly, it raised a million questions as it raised my awareness. Read this one alongside Let Just Roll Down and Christy.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A spider befriends a young pig, saving his life by spinning messages in her web. “Extraordinary.” Messages of self-less love, friendship, and the value given to every one of God’s creations makes this book a classic. I love the message that no matter how little or ugly you may appear, you are valuable and worthy of love and friendship. Also, we all have hidden talents that can be used for serving others.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Soul Care From Your Child’s Bookshelf</image:title>
      <image:caption>A boy’s love brings to life a toy rabbit. This is the first book that made me aware of my soul’s need to be seen and loved. Life may wear down our glossy fur coats, but what we look like on the outside isn’t a measure of how loved and valuable we are. We can never be worthless because God’s love makes us worthy.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A magical kingdom, a battle between good and evil, and a fearfully wonderful lion who loves and protects If you go looking for it, you will find all kinds of analogies to Christ: his sovereignty, his supremacy, and his sacrificial love for you.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>If you feel like you don’t belong and you aren’t worth being claimed by anyone, Anne with teach you how to look for the silver lining, appreciate love where you find it and maybe even bloom where you are planted. The message of being adored by a father-figure and being adopted by God despite being awful and undeserving of His love is my favorite.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Soul Care From Your Child’s Bookshelf</image:title>
      <image:caption>While not exactly soul care, there are so many great themes in the LHOP stories that are good for your heart and for conversation starters with your kids, I had to include them on my list. Integrity, honesty, respect and family love… just for starters.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Soul Care From Your Child’s Bookshelf</image:title>
      <image:caption>Again, not a soul care book, exactly, but still a book that got past my heart barriers.  This is the first book that made me cry.  When I recently re-read it to my kids, I cried again…. and I knew it was coming!  There is something so pure in the love between boy and dogs in this book.  It reminds me of the faithfulness and steadfast love of God for me.</image:caption>
