    by Beth Wiseman

    Priscilla King has been planning to marry Chester Lapp since she was sixteen years old, and when Chester pops the question on Priscilla’s nineteenth birthday, wedding plans begin immediately.

    But what happens when everything that can go wrong does?

    Chester works to build a house for his new bride, only to have one disaster after another occur. Priscilla’s father planted an excess amount of celery in preparation for a wedding he thought would be in order soon. A failed crop threatens to puts a damper on the event. Priscilla’s wedding dress is mistakenly cut up to use for dusting rags, and one of her bridesmaids breaks out in a horrible rash before the wedding. And if all that isn’t enough, Priscilla develops a case of hiccups that seems to forewarn her every time a mishap is about to occur.

    Can true love take this couple through the challenges that threaten their union, or will they begin to doubt that they are on the right path, the one God has chosen for them?

    The Mother of All Laughter by Terry Lindvall

    The Mother of All LaughterThe Mother of All Laughter by Terry Lindvall

    When the superannuated biblical Sarah learned that she would give birth to a son, she burst out laughing, and that son’s name-Isaac-was forever a testimony to this moment of holy mirth. In The Mother of All Laughter: Sarah & the Genesis of Comedy, Terry Lindvall argues that there is a biblical place for laughter. At times, he lets truth be obscured by a good story (as when he cites the famous Neil Armstrong/”Mr. Gorsky” urban legend as fact), but he raises important points about humor for Christians.

    Be StillBe Still by Cherie Hill

    When the storms of life threaten to overcome us, we find ourselves crying out to the heavens, “Lord, don’t You care?” As our soul is capsized with heavy silence and we continue to pray for a miracle, God’s answer comes in the form of a question, “Where is your faith?”

    “Be Still” uncovers the profound life-applicable meaning of the miracle, “Jesus Calms the Storm.” Through this powerful message, your spirit will be submerged with hope, peace, and comfort, as you find your way to the back of the boat…resting with Jesus.

    Just like the Disciples, many times you find yourself so overwhelmed by your storm that you look right past the only One who can save you and who is always beside you-Jesus. As you gain a deeper understanding of this great miracle, you will find that when God allows a storm in your life… it comes with great purpose; if you miss the purpose, you may miss God’s will for your life. So, let go of your fear by grabbing hold of your faith…let the storms come, and let the waters rise-God is taking you deeper.

    Mended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole by Angie Smith

    Mended: Pieces of a Life Made WholeMended: Pieces of a Life Made Whole
    by Angie Smith

    We love to cheer for the underdog and believe to our core that every life makes a difference. And we are right. There is no one God can’t use and no one whose brokenness is too broken for God. We know this is true for our friends when we want to encourage them. Yet, when it comes to the places of our innermost sense of shame and regret, we often wonder if it is really true that God can work all things together for good for those who love Him.

    Mended takes you on a journey to show how faith lived in the regular events of daily life is all that it takes to be a part of creating God’s picture of redemption in your life and those around you. Your life does make a difference – because of how He is magnified in the cracks.

    What Women Fear: Walking in Faith that Transforms

    What Women Fear: Walking in Faith that TransformsWhat Women Fear: Walking in Faith that Transforms by Angie Smith

    A woman’s faith in God is challenged by the first question Satan asks Eve in the Bible: “Did God really say you can’t eat from any tree in the garden?” That seed of doubt and the story it begins to unfold breed a concept of fear still haunting each of us on some level every day-the idea that our actions could ruin something beautiful, and God might not have control of things.

    In What Women Fear, acclaimed writer and speaker Angie Smith admits, “fear is a major part of my testimony” and talks openly about her treatment for anxiety as a child. Giving a voice to the problem, she says, “I truly believe every single one of us struggles with some type of fear, whether it’s fear of flying or fear of being ‘found out.’ Maybe you don’t worry about dying, but you get sick thinking about the fact that you might fail.”

    Rather than suggesting that those who truly love the Lord would never fear, Angie blends her own experiences with those of men and women from throughout Scripture to help us start dealing more effectively with these true, human emotions. Whether it’s a constant “What if?,” a nagging fear of abandonment or betrayal, fear of your own or someone else’s death, fear of trusting God’s plan, or even the fear that God’s existence is a lie, Angie will walk you through stories of others who have simultaneously loved God and struggled with fear. Join Angie and discover how to let Jesus redeem this struggle as only He can, that He will be glorified, and you will be transformed!
