Editorial : Praise for When We Were on Fire"With its luminous prose, Zierman’s memoir reads like a novel, threaded with imperfect faith, doubt, deep searching, love and friendship and loss and depression…A book to savor to the very last page.” –Publisher’s Weekly (starred review)“Fire provides light and warmth, or it can bring pain and destruction. Addie tells us a story in which her fiery faith sparked both outcomes and how she’s worked to contain those flames. She walks the reader through this process with such grace, humor, and utter transparency that I couldn’t help but see my own faith journey in hers. A refreshing, hopeful book from an expert storyteller.”—Jason Boyett, author of O Me of Little Faith“Addie Zierman’s unflinching candor and tender vulnerability make When We Were on Fire a must-read memoir. I ached for the wholesome, eager young girl seeking to serve God wit
In the strange, us-versus-them Christian subculture of the 1990s, a person’s faith was measured by how many WWJD bracelets she wore and whether he had kissed dating goodbye. Evangelical poster child Addie Zierman wore three bracelets asking what Jesus would do. She also led two Bible studies and listened exclusively to Christian music. She was on fire for God and unaware that the flame was dwindling—until it burned out. Addie chronicles her journey through church culture and first love, and her entrance—unprepared and angry—into marriage. When she drops out of church and very nearly her marriage as well, it is on a sea of tequila and depression. She isn’t sure if she’ll ever go back. When We Were on Fire is a funny, heartbreaking story of untangling oneself from what is expected to arrive at faith that is not bound by tradition or current church fashion. Addie looks for what lasts when nothing else seems worth kee
We shouldn't assume we know. C'mon!?!?! How does something like this get published?
Beware!!!!
This terrible OVER-PRICED book is a hodgepodge of haphazard and dangerous recipes!!!!
The Paris Sausage with Garlic calls for 18,000 ppm sodium nitrite (18 g sodium nitrite), yes, 18,000 ppm.
The safe sodium nitrite maximum is just 156 ppm!!!!
Even if the recipe called for 18 g of 6.25% sodium nitrite pink salt the level of sodium nitrite would be 1125 ppm, which is still WAY over the safe limit!!!!!!!
The frankfurter recipe calls for 2.8% salt, which is VERY salty.
It also calls for the juice of one lemon which will interfere with the binding of the proteins.
The book is filled with bad information!
Very unprofessional!!
It should really be rated zero stars.. These cards can handle a splash of water, but aren't something you would want to hand to your baby, as he/she would probably ruin them. Besides
