Customer Reviews

AWESOME book!

I love this book. It helps you realize a life with less possessions does not mean a life of less! It is a more fulfilling life if you execute it properly, and with the right heart. There are dozens of ideas for making traditions with your family, which I loved! Memories are the most important thing to pass down, and this book has endless ideas for that. I would recommend this book to any and everyone! I can't wait to re-read it.

A gem

This book is a gem full of practical tips on living a more simple life. I've got most of the book underlined and hated to see it end.

A Wonderful Read!

Living Simply is truly a wonderful book that I hated to see come to an end! Joanne Heim writes as if she is talking to you as a true friend. This inspiring book is filled with God's Word, as well as, personal and practical life examples that empower you to choose to change. As a wife and a mom to three, it is refreshing to find others who value simple lives filled with God, family, traditions, and contentment. In a world that stresses "bigger, better, more...", this thought-provoking book helps you examine your current life and strive for a life of simplicity!

Common Sense Ideas

Very common sense interpretation of a biblical view of a simple life, and very common sense ideas for mothers who want to establish great ideas and traditions into everyday family life!! Very creative, and appreciated by someone who isn't!!

just the book this weary mom has been searching for!

I know I'm not alone--a wife and mom who CRAVES order and calm and simplicity in my home and life. I don't want to be in a perpetual rush, I'm sick of clutter, I want to make time for the things (and people!) that truly matter. The beautiful cover of this book drew me in, and the author's warm, delightful and funny tone kept my attention to the very end. I devoured Living Simply in less than two days, and I only let myself read a chapter at a time (as a reward for accomplishing things that needed done around my home!). I immediately started putting Joanne's advice into practice, and I'm already seeing results! I'm reading through it again, underlining and starring all the things I want to remember for always! You'll find a kindred spirit in Joanne! This book is a gem!
