God continues to grow our weekly linkup devoted to literacy, book reviews, blogging, and Christian devotionals. I am so grateful to my supporters for continuing to join the linkup and encouraging one another.
I hope to have some great news next week with the introduction of a returning host; so stay tuned.
In the meantime, I am seeking part-time hosts to sign up on a weekly basis in March. As a part-time host you will serve as a cheerleader and help read blog posts of those linking up with us. You will just leave an encouraging message and share the posts across your social media. For helping out, I will write up a feature of your blog, including a bio with all your social media links. You only have to sign on for one week at a time; so, there is no long-term commitment. Let me know if you are interested by emailing me at marykatbpcsc45 @ gmail.com
Now on to our weekly linkup. Grab a cup of coffee and notebook because you are going to find loads of inspiration from fellow bloggers.

How Christian Do You Like Your Christian Fiction?
By Barbara at Stray Thoughts
This post really provoked great discussion. I enjoy Christian fiction and really do not like publishers to water down the Christianity just because they do not believe there is a market for it. Barbara also presented great arguments for it in her post. Be sure to check it out.

Want to be the next to be featured! Just link up a post and if you are read the most, I will feature you. Also please make sure you link back to our community so others will know about our link up and join in. I will try to make it worth your while to linkup by promoting your posts across my social media networks. I will also pin my most clicked and featured posts to our #LMMLinkup Pinterest Board each week!
Remember to grab your button if you have been featured:

Now, it is time to link up to the Literacy Musing Mondays hop!

Linkup Rules:
- Include a link back or the blog hop button linked to this hop on your posts.
- Link up the urls to your posts not to your blog.
- Please remember this is a family-friendly linkup. Although we believe in the right for adults to read whatever they want to read, we prefer to read wholesome posts that feature literature that edify and uplift families. We reserve the right to delete any posts that are not family friendly. We love all kinds of literature and genres including family-friendly inspirational romances, fantasy, or science fiction. We do not welcome any posts that feature excessive violence, sexual content, or any cursing. This rule also applies to book review posts that feature books that are not family-friendly. These posts will be deleted without notice to the blogger or explanation. While we believe in the right for all adults to read whatever they want, we feel our linkup is for family-friendly posts only. Thank you for understanding.
- We also want to be loving community by supporting one another. Please make a point to do this this week! Visit the two posts before yours and at least one other blogger’s post of your choice! I want to see lots of clicks on everyone’s posts. Remember it is also nice to follow them on their social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.
- Follow your host on her social media : Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram.
- Tweet about the link up too.
Be sure to check out my Linkup Parties page for great blog hops that I join each week.
