Spirit-led Living and Homeschooling

Free Online Books!

Well, I’m realizing that some of the best historical fiction, literature and historical writings are ones published before 1960. Many are not published any more. Fortunately, more and more are being put online and we can access them for free. There are even free audiobooks online—a few of which are read by actual human beings! I though I’d share the ones I’ve found so far.

I'm on a journey, seeking to live my life with my husband following the direction of the Holy Spirit and the Word of God and to train my children in the same manner. What a wonderful yet challenging journey it is. As Paul says in Philippians, "Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
