    The Memory JarThe Memory Jar
    by Tricia Goyer

    Every year, 30 – 40 young Amish men descend on the cozy little town of West Kootenai, Montana, arriving in the spring to live there for six months and receive ‘resident’ status for the hunting season in the fall. They arrive as bachelors, but go home with brides!

    Sarah Shelter has lived in West Kootenai for the last ten years and wonders if she will ever fall in love. Since the tragic death of her best friend, she carries her memories in a jar along with the small items connected to them. For just as long, she’s also been carrying around her emotions instead of allowing them to penetrate deep into her heart.

    Now she’s met a kind and gentle man who may be able to break down the wall. But can Sarah risk her heart to finally achieve her dreams?

    Prairie by Chautona Havig

    PrairiePrairie
    by Chautona Havig

    Jessa Davidson enjoyed a lifelong fascination and desire for life on the prairie. However, she never expected that fascination to become reality. A far cry from her apartment in Pittsburgh, the world of Prairie is more than just a change in geography – it’s a change of life. In Prairie, Jessa examines the innermost parts of her soul and discovers desires she never knew she had.

    From the moment she awoke, transported from the cold Pennsylvania winter, on the sunbathed summer prairie, she knew her life would never be the same.

    The people of Prairie welcomed her and accepted her – almost without question, but so much of her life changed in that moment – her hopes, dreams, values, and the absolutes of things like time – that she feared accepting her new life as reality.

    Is Prairie the dreams of her life come true – or her worst nightmare. Is it real? Is it permanent? Or will she awake to discover that she’s lost her mind – or worse, her life?

    And the biggest question on Jessa’s heart? Does she care?

    It’s 6:00 a.m., and four year old Amanda shuffles into her parent’s bedroom, where she finds Daddy sleeping in what normally is Mommy’s spot. She innocently wakes him up from a deep sleep “Daddy… can you make me pancakes?” Daddy replies “Yes, sure honey.”

    Neither Amanda nor Daddy have their normal energetic smile. Not because they were tired, but because Mommy didn’t make it home last night. Cancer unexpectedly took her.

    Now “Daddy” must find a way to care for three small children while holding down a new executive position within his company.

    For the moment, making pancakes is the one thing that keeps their family together.

    Soul Surfer by Bethany Hamilton

    Soul SurferSoul Surfer
    by Bethany Hamilton

    The amazing true story of the thirteen-year-old surfer girl who lost her arm in a shark attack but never lost her faith – and of her triumphant return to competitive surfing.

    They say Bethany Hamilton has saltwater in her veins. How else could one explain the tremendous passion that drives her to surf? How else could one explain that nothing – not even the loss of her arm in a horrific shark attack – could come between her and the waves?

    Soul Surfer is a moving account of Bethany’s life as a young surfer, her recovery in the wake of the shark attack, the adjustments she’s made to her unique surfing style, her unprecedented bid for a top showing in the World Surfing Championships, and, most fundamentally, her belief in God. It is a story of girl power and spiritual grit that shows that the body is no more essential to surfing – perhaps even less so – than the soul.

    Like countless others in 1931, Samuel Wortham lost his job. And he lost his wife’s inheritance, their home, and much of his self-respect. Samuel, his wife, Julia, and their two young children hitchhike from Pennsylvania to Illinois in hope of work. Caught on the road by a sudden storm, the Worthams take shelter in an abandoned farmhouse out of desperation.

The owner is Emma Graham, a woman in her eighties who longs for home but can no longer live by herself. Emma and the Worthams work out a plan to live there together and restore the farm. Samuel struggles with not being able to provide for his family, and Julia and the kids confront unpleasant surprises when a busybody neighbor turns against them.

    Julia’s Hope is an endearing story of faith and faithfulness as Emma teaches the Worthams to live fully, give generously, and love unconditionally.
