[Hot Deal] Silent Night

Silent Night by Colleen Coble

Bree Matthews is preparing for Christmas guests, but her heart is reeling from the recent and tender loss of her unborn child. Her sister-in-law, Lauri, suddenly turns up on the doorstep of the lighthouse home Bree shares with her husband, Kade, in Rock Harbor. Secretive and withdrawn, Lauri seems curiously intent on discovering what happened to a parachuter who disappeared in the North Woods along Lake Superior’s icy shore.

As Bree and Samson, her search-and-rescue dog, plunge into the search, Bree wonders if Lauri may know more than she’s admitted about the parachuter. And then the clues lead them to the trail of a young woman whose family fears the worst about her disappearance.

Will the search on this snowy, silent night lead Bree and Samson to more than clues about the missing girl? And will Bree’s prayer for a baby ever be answered?

[Hot Deal] The Dig for Kids: Luke Vol. 1

The Dig for Kids: Luke Vol. 1 by Patrick Schwenk

The Dig for Kids is a simple and easy way for parents to study through books of the Bible with their children. The Dig takes the guesswork out of teaching for parents. Each lesson is just one page that contains four main parts:

THE MAP
The Map is the overview of each lesson. It will tell you as a parent and your child what you will be studying.

THE DIG
The Dig is the main passage of the Bible you will be reading. There are typically three or four review questions that will help with discussion and review.

THE TREASURE
The Treasure is the big idea of the passage you have just studied. Simply put, it is what you want your child to remember in one sentence.

THE DISPLAY
Archaeologists go on a dig, find a treasure, and then put it on display for all to see. This is the basic idea behind the Display. It helps your child live out what he or she has just learned.

Early on in The Dig you will meet a character named Doc. He will be your expert and experienced tour guide. Through each Dig, Doc will help guide a child systematically through books of the Bible. The Dig for Kids is a great resource for parents because it makes teaching children the Bible simple, fun, and interactive!
