For those of you who love to read, there’s a new book out by my good friends Dottie Adams and Marion Wells, with their friend Connie Fleishauer.
It’s called Purr-ables from Heaven, Devotions for Cat Lovers.
On Page 71, Dottie talks about her friend Jean, a songwriter, worship leader and guitar teacher. I’m the Jean, it’s me.
Dottie is a teaching director for a Community Bible Study class. I was her worship leader for many years. You can listen to some of her teaching at DottieAdams.com.
Dottie, Marion and Connie are all wonderful writers and this book will encourage you in your walk with Christ. I highly recommend their new book. If you love cats and love to read… you’ll especially adore this book.
To the left of this article is a link to order their book from Amazon.com, for your convenience.

When we’ve been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun. There’s no less days to sing God’s praise than when we first begun.
I’ve made a video for you with 3 arrangements of ‘Amazing Grace.’ Quite a few little kids are using my kids guitar lessons program and I didn’t want to leave them out. The first arrangement is super simple for kids to play.
Here is the music for the arrangements of Amazing Grace. Below is the video.

“May he (the son of Ruth & Boaz) be to you a restorer of your old age, for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, and is better to you than seven sons, has born him.”
The whole town saw Ruth’s love and beautiful traits!
