Happy #MiddleGradeMonday ! Let’s be real up front: #FightingWords is a tough book. It is a beautiful, hopeful, important book, but as our ten year old narrator Della repeatedly tells us, there are hard parts in this story. Warnings for discussions of child sexual abuse, substance abuse, and a suicide attempt. This is a middle grade book and it deals with these issues in a sensitive and age appropriate way, but this Monday things are getting a little heavy around here. I loved this book and I’m thrilled to be talking about it, and if you want to join in, we’ll be on @booksofwonder Instagram Live at 1CST/2EST.

So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them. - Genesis 1:27 I loved this reminder from the “Fighting Words” devotional from @ellieholcomb especially nowadays with people, especially Christians, arguing over this and that on Facebook and Twitter. It’s exhausting, upsetting and stresses me out! 😞 #morelovelesshate #morecompassion #morepatience #fightingwords #p31obs #fightingwordsobs #patience #compassion #love #loveoneanother https://www.instagram.com/p/CfJ29ekunuf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Fighting Words” is the name of Ellen Foley’s fifth solo album, released in August by Urban Noise Music. After being in the audience for Ellen’s first NYC show in 6 years at @theboweryelectric in October I’m excited to visit with her on Monday evening at 8 PM Eastern on @radiofreebk Link to listen in bio or download our app for iOS or Android. We’ll feature tracks from her critically acclaimed album, we’ll deep our toes into her extensive back catalog and we’ll indulge in some music with a “girl group vibe”. Ellen Foley and the Worried Men will be performing on Tuesday, December 21 at @cuttingroomnyc - I strongly advise you to get your tickets in advance. #ellenfoley #fightingwords #newmusic #newrelease #live #radio #interview #indiemusic #americana #rock #album #radiofreebrooklyn #brooklyn #newyork (at Radio Free Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXCyLFis62m/?utm_medium=tumblr
