Angie and I have developed this quick and easy survey to receive your feedback about the past book club experience, and hopefully improve it for the ones to come! We will be closing the survey in about a week, so please take a few minutes to do it now.

Crazy Love Chapter 10 and Wrap Up
Crazy Love Chapter Ten from angie smith on Vimeo.
Angie and I can't believe we are done with Crazy Love. (Actually, she still has to finish the chapter, as she confessed in the video.)
We have been so blessed by all God has done in this community. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for joining us. We are excited for the next book in 2010.
We will be in touch in a couple weeks with a survey to get your thoughts of what you loved about this experience and what we can tweak to make it even better.
Have a blessed and happy holiday season filled with the Crazy Love of God.
With love and gratitude,
Angie and Jessica

Chapter 9: Crazy Love
Angie and I were planning on filming our chapter 9 video this afternoon. When I called her this afternoon, she sounds like she was in bed.
She was.
The little peanut growing inside of her had her puking much of the day. Needless to say, she was not up for doing a video. Please keep her in your prayers. Todd is on the road making things especially hard for her.
Since Francis shared stories of people who were living out a crazy love life, Angie and I were going to share some of our own stories.I'll do that here. We would love for you to share testimonies of people God has used in your life to show his crazy love on the ning site.
Without question, RoseAnne Coleman will forever be one of the most beautiful, Godly, crazy love people I will ever know. She exemplifies what Francis discusses in every aspect of her life.
I first met RoseAnne several years ago at Fellowship Bible Church. She was leading a women's bible study. I wasn't sure if this older lady was going to resonate with me. Well, she rocked me to the core. She radiates Jesus unlike anyone I have ever met.
RoseAnne teaches through story and through her life. How does her life demonstrate somone who is in crazy love with God? I wish I could do her justice...
She lives on a small farm south of Nashville. She doesn't have a lot, but that doesn't phase her. She fully depends on God in a manner that is so uplifting,
She knows the word and weaves it into her conversation in pure and beautiful way. She intimately knows Jesus in a way I do not.
RoseAnne is also passionate about growing things and loves seeing the parallels of growing vegetables/flowers/etc. to God growing us. I never thought gardening could teach me as much about Jesus as it has, thanks to RoseAnne.
Her mentor, Miss Helen, left a profound impact on her life, and her Miss Helen stories have caused me to weep and yearn for a deeper relationship with God.
RoseAnne started a blog and wrote a book called The Stories I Keep
not too long ago. I love that God is using her story-telling gift to reach a larger audience. She has taught me so much. She writes just like she talks. I love it.
She is a beautiful woman and her crazy love makes her even more captivating.
Here we are a few years ago. You can even see her God-sparkle in her eyes.
So, who is your RoseAnne? Come share with us on the ning site.
Peace be with you. Angie and I will be back next Sunday to wrap up the book.
Love,
Jess (and Angie and her growing peanut)

Chapter 8 Guest: Jen Sparks
Today's guest blog is Bloom's own Jen Sparks. Jen has been extremely active on the ning site from day one and we have been so blessed by her presence. It felt natural that she should be a guest for Crazy Love.
Her blog post caused me to nod in agreement and be encouraged that I am not alone.
So, please, go visit her blog and read her thoughts. They will bless you today. I know they were a great start my day.
Be sure to leave a comment on her blog and join in the discussion on the ning site!
Love,
Jess and Angie

Crazy Love, Chapter Eight
The video was not eaten! Yes, we are in the bathroom again (we filmed 7 and 8 the same night). This video is a little longer than normal, but there was SO much to discuss. So grab a cup of coffee and your copy of Crazy Love and join us in Angie's bathroom. We are blessed to have you with us.
Love,
Jessica and Angie.
