{July Book}

I know everyone is anxious to know what we'll read for July.  I like the idea of doing something patriotic. 

Some patriotic books to consider are:

The 5,000 Year Leap (Cleon Skousen) This book is used in many high school now and would be a great summer read for teenagers as well!  But it's not just for teenagers!  I have read it and loved it.

I beg you to read this book filled with words of wisdom which I can only describe as divinely inspired. You will find answers to questions plaguing America, and more importantly you will find hope. I know I have! --Glenn Beck, Nationally Syndicated Radio and Television Host

A fascinating, in-depth study of the remarkable origins and enlightening ideas that helped to forge this great nation. I am proud to be an American and sincerely grateful for this God ordained nation. --Dr. Stephen R. Covey, Co-founder FranklinCovey, Speaker, Bestselling Author

The fight for the soul of our country is real! Every patriotic American, young and old, should read this book! --Chris Cannon, US House of Representatives, 1997-2009 

The Fire of the Covenant (Gerald Lund) historical fiction on the Willie and Martin Handcart companies.  After reading the first two books in the These Is My Words series, (some of us have read all 3) we have read a lot of pioneer stories and didn't know if people would want a break from that particular genre.

George Washington's Sacred Fire (Lillback) An enlightening, engaging, and long overdue correction of the falsehood that Washington lacked faith. --Rodney Stark, Baylor University

. . . . Dr. Lillback buries the myth that Washington was an unbeliever - at most a "deist" - under an avalanche of facts . . . . --Robert P. George, Princeton University

American History in Black and White (David Barton) Setting the Record Straight in a unique view of the religious and moral heritage of black Americans, with an emphasis on the untold yet significant stories from our rich political history. The material presented is ground-breaking and revolutionary, leaving viewers amazed and inspired.

Please email me before Sunday or leave a comment and let me know what you'd like to read in July for book club!  I will send out an email and make the the announcement with our most popular choice in Relief Society this week.
