If you purchased from Mi-Re-Do, you were redirected here as an invitation to an over-the-counter market square chat. Thank you so much for your business! As a gesture of friendship to my customers, I am offerring used copies of some of my favorite books for free, one per customer. Message me with the title you select:
Answers by Josh McDowell & Don Stewart
An excellent, point-by-point apologetics resource focusing mostly on questions about the Bible's origin, consistency, and application.
Space Trilogy by C.S. Lewis
Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, and That Hideous Strength are the three science fiction novels that C.S. Lewis wrote, addressing hypothetical scenarios about free will.
Quest for Love by Elisabeth Elliot
A collection of true stories about couples who submitted their courtship relationships to God.
Passion and Purity by Elisabeth Elliot
My favorite book about Christian relationships, Elisabeth Elliot shares from her own experiences and diaries about the courtship that led to her marriage to martyred missionary Jim Elliot.
I Kissed Dating Goodbye by Joshua Harris
A book that challenges the popular dating philosophy. Instead of having fun or trial-marriages, Josh Harris encourages relationships to be centered on commitment and intentionality.
Boy Meets Girl by Joshua Harris
This is the continuation of I Kissed Dating Goodbye, written after Joshua Harris had experienced courtship himself with his wife, Shannon. Similar to Quest for Love, it also includes other true stories of successful courtships, laying down practical principles for developing relationships.
A Grief Observed by C.S. Lewis
"We read to know we're not alone." - Shadowlands, the movie
If you or someone you know is going through grief over a lost loved one, this book, written as a diary of C.S. Lewis' own experience with loss, is an excellent reassurance that others have been there, too. Others have felt the same thing - and managed to continue living.
If you were to visit my "business", you would see a room layered in Victorian-style furniture, fabric, books, and home decor. Though there are many chairs and benches, they are currently covered in stacks of books about the Bible, novels by JRR Tolkien, as well as collections of Jane Austen and L.M. Montgomery. You would quickly be invited to perch amid the piles of beautiful things waiting to be shelved or used and I would be likely to offer you chocolate.
Then I would probably tell you all about why I started my little shop. At Mi~Re~Do I sell sturdy, useful, and pretty handmade bags and aprons. For your home decor I want to add the inspiration of nostalgia through the sale of framed antique photos, scrapbooked in the Victorian style of their contemporaries.
Also available is custom production of:
You may contact me about custom invitation or card design as well.
To find out more about me and the things I think or the reasons I sell the things I do, please visit my blog. I often tell my family that I was born in the wrong century, still writing (long) letters to friends and using "calling cards" as often as possible, wearing long skirts and fantastic hairstyles, it is my passion to remind the world of the more gracious and graceful eras of the past.
When you do business with Mi~Re~Do, it is my aim for you to experience the same graciousness and community that dominated markets of the past ~ whether you are just looking at my site, purchasing one of my handmade or carefully selected items, or communicating after a sale. In the old country squares, a woman would stand over a booth on market day, observing the goods offered and chatting with the merchant before she made her purchase. That, I hope is what this site will represent.
My object in making and selling items is not to break your budget or fill your home with unneeded things. Please buy what you love, spend what you can afford, and contact me with any comments on how I can improve or expand my product inventory.
To God be all glory,
Lisa
