    Fearless: Imagine Your Life Without Fear – Save $13

    Fearless: Imagine Your Life Without FearFearless: Imagine Your Life Without Fear
    by Max Lucado

    Each sunrise seems to bring fresh reasons for fear.

    They’re talking layoffs at work, slowdowns in the economy, flare-ups in the Middle East, turnovers at headquarters, downturns in the housing market, upswings in global warming. The plague of our day, terrorism, begins with the word terror. Fear, it seems, has taken up a hundred-year lease on the building next door and set up shop. Oversized and rude, fear herds us into a prison of unlocked doors. Wouldn’t it be great to walk out?

    Imagine your life, wholly untouched by angst. What if faith, not fear, was your default reaction to threats? If you could hover a fear magnet over your heart and extract every last shaving of dread, insecurity, or doubt, what would remain? Envision a day, just one day, where you could trust more and fear less.

    Can you imagine your life without fear?

    The UnveilingThe Unveiling by Tamara Leigh

    12th century England: Two men vie for the throne: King Stephen the usurper and young Duke Henry the rightful heir. Amid civil and private wars, alliances are forged, loyalties are betrayed, families are divided, and marriages are made.

    For four years, Lady Annyn Bretanne has trained at arms with one end in mind – to avenge her brother’s murder as God has not deemed it worthy to do. Disguised as a squire, she sets off to exact revenge on a man known only by his surname, Wulfrith. But when she holds his fate in her hands, her will wavers and her heart whispers that her enemy may not be an enemy after all.

    Baron Wulfrith, renowned trainer of knights, allows no women within his walls for the distraction they breed. What he never expects is that the impetuous young man sent to train under him is a woman who seeks his death – nor that her unveiling will test his faith and distract the warrior from his purpose.

    What happens when we invite God’s Power into our pain

    From her first breath of fresh air beyond the pit, it has never been enough for Beth Moore to be free. This author and teacher who’s opened the riches of Scripture to millions has longed for you to be free as well. To know the Love and Presence that are better than life – and the power of God’s Word that defies all darkness.

    Her journey out of the pit has been heart-rending. But from this and the poetic expressions of Psalm 40 has come the reward: a new song for her soul – given by her Savior and offered to you here, friend to friend. It is Beth’s most stirring message yet of the sheer hope, utter deliverance… and complete and glorious freedom of God:
    I waited patiently for the Lord
    He turned to me and heard my cry
    He lifted me out of the slimy pit
    He set my feet on a rock
    He put a new song in my mouth
    It is a story, a song – a salvation – that you can know too.

    The OathThe Oath by Frank Peretti

    An ancient sin. A long forgotten oath. A town with a deadly secret.

    Something evil is at work in Hyde River, an isolated mining town in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest.

    Under the cover of darkness, a predator strikes without warning – taking life in the most chilling and savage fashion.

    The community of Hyde River watches in terror as residents suddenly vanish. Yet, the more locals are pressed for information, the more they close ranks, sworn to secrecy by their forefathers’ hidden sins.

    Only when Hyde River’s secrets are exposed is the true extent of the danger fully revealed. What the town discovers is something far more deadly than anything they’d imagined. Something that doesn’t just stalk its victims, but has the power to turn hearts black with decay as it slowly fills their souls with darkness.

    Prodigals and Those Who Love Them – Save $13

    Prodigals and Those Who Love Them: Words of Encouragement for Those Who WaitProdigals and Those Who Love Them: Words of Encouragement for Those Who Wait by Ruth Bell Graham

    Ruth Bell Graham knew about prodigals – two of her five children were spiritual wanderers. This is not a “how to” book that dispenses easy advice on ways to win back a prodigal. Instead, it is a collection of readings one woman turned to for comfort when her children wandered from God. It shows how Graham’s faith persevered and grew regardless of the outcome of her prodigals’ stories.

    Part One introduces readers to five prodigals who “returned to the father.” Part Two offers comfort and encouragement through Scripture, poems, hymns, prayers, and more. Readers will be touched by the honest feelings of pain, frustration, and uncertainty Graham expresses so eloquently. And they will share in the lessons she learned about God’s sovereignty and ultimate peace. Now beautifully repackaged, Prodigals and Those Who Love Them brings peace and hope to all parents of “wayward” children.
