That’s it for announcements. Let’s jump into this week’s book discussion. We had a few technical difficulties when we recorded the episodes for this series, so please excuse any audio blips. Enjoy our discussion of Strategic Plan by Lynn Shannon.

 

Episode Notes

In this episode Jessica, Tiffanie, and Melissa discuss the fourth book in Lynn Shannon’s Triumph Over Adversity series, Strategic plan. Due to the stalker wearing a pig mask, Tiffanie and Melissa were reminded of their visit to a haunted hog house when they were teenagers, something they would never do again!

 

Enjoy this entertaining conversation.

 

Nuggets of truth/wisdom in Strategic Plan:

·      Giving your worries to God

·      Listening to God and following his leading

·      How faith in God impacts your marriage

·      God walks with us through the pain

 

We gave the following ratings to each of the story elements listed below.

(Espresso = an expression, Mocha = Medium amount, Latte = A lot)

Mystery – Latte

Drama – Latte

Suspense - Latte

Romance – Espresso

Inspiration – Mocha

 

This whole series is a must read and we know you will be hooked and hog-tied which is why LiteraryScape gave Strategic Plan by Lynn Shannon 2.75 lassos! The just under 3 lassos comes from Tiffanie’s rating. She is not a fan of suspense but agreed that Lynn wrote the book so well she couldn’t put it down.

 

(1 lasso – throw and a miss, 2 lassos – hooked, 3 lassos – hooked and hog tied)
