    Life Just Got Real: A Live Original Novel (Live Original Fiction) From Dancing with the Stars runner-up and Duck Dynasty star Sadie Robertson comes a fun novel about two teenage girls from different backgrounds and opposite lifestyles who discover there is more to friendship than meets the eye.

    When things go wrong, it’s reality TV’s right…

    Sixteen-year-old A.J. Smith grew up in backwoods Louisiana, repairing cars with her dad and hunting with her brothers. But when her dad dies, her mom drags the whole family to Nashville where everything is different—except A.J. And A.J. knows it will take everything she has to live original.

    Kate Kelly grew up in Nashville’s best schools, jetting around the world with glamorous people and wearing clothes from her mom’s trendy boutique. But when A.J. Smith―a new girl from the sticks—shows up, suddenly she’s all the rage: her unusual sense of style, her accent, and especially her dumb converse high tops. Even Kate’s brother, Kaden, seems to be under the new girl’s spell. But Kate has bigger things to think about, including the reality show Real Life. Everyone says the show is her chance to make it big. But then the producers decide to bring A.J. into the show.

    Because these girls are so different, the producers of Real Life know that their conflict will be television gold. So the cameras start to roll. Then Kaden asks A.J. to prom, Kate flips out, and things with Kate’s (almost) boyfriend Alex start unraveling fast—all on camera. As the producers try to stir up the drama, Kate’s idea of the perfect prom spins out of control. When Kate’s life goes disastrously wrong, it is A.J. who steps up to help—no questions asked. A friendship between the two girls just might grow—but only if they both live original and stay true to who God made them to be.

    Marriage Forecasting: Changing the Climate of Your Relationship One Conversation at a Time What’s the forecast for your marriage? Marriages are as variable as the weather, and every marriage has a climate. Some are chilly and lack intimacy. Others are stormy and filled with conflict. But while the weather outdoors is beyond our control, the communication climates within our homes can be changed–for the better.

    Communication specialist Tim Muehlhoff offers simple strategies for improving the climate of a marriage. Our individual words and actions always take place within an overall atmosphere of expectations. Without a healthy climate of trust, we are prone to miscommunication and misunderstanding. Muehlhoff shows how to take an accurate climate reading of a relationship and explains what causes climates of poor communication. With current research on marital communication, listening skills, empathy and conflict resolution, Marriage Forecasting provides practical ways for couples to rebuild a warm relational climate.

    Don’t just talk about the weather. Break the cold front, clear the fog, and change the extended outlook for your marriage.

    Soul Keeping: Caring For the Most Important Part of You The soul is NOT "a theological and abstract subject."

    The soul is the coolest, eeriest, most mysterious, evocative, crucial, sacred, eternal, life-directing, fragile, indestructible, controversial, expensive dimension of your existence.

    Jesus said it’s worth more than the world.

    You’d be an idiot not to prize it above all else.

    Shouldn’t you get pretty clear on exactly what it is?

    Shouldn’t you know what it runs on?

    Wouldn’t it be worth knowing how to care for it?

    Two things are for sure. One is: you have a soul. The other is: if you don’t look after this one you won’t be issued a replacement.

    Bestselling author John Ortberg writes another classic that will help readers discover their soul and take their relationship with God to the next level.

    Jesus Among Other Gods: (Youth Edition) (Extreme Series) You can’t be friends with God if the God you believe in doesn’t really exist. You can’t depend on God if your God is a figment of your imagination. In a world full of gods, how do you know Jesus is real?

    You have probably heard things like:

    • All religions lead to the same God.
    • All faiths teach the same things.

    It doesn’t matter what you believe-just that you believe sincerely. But Jesus said that:

    • He alone is the way to God.
    • He alone shows us the truth of who God is.
    • He alone gives us life close to God.

    In this youth edition of Jesus Among Other Gods, Ravi Zacharias gives solid evidence as to why we should choose Jesus Christ as THE God among all other gods. Zacharias contrasts the truth of Jesus with the founders of Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism, providing strong descriptions of each faith and solid defenses for the cause of Christ. In addition to the religion comparisons, the book answers questions such as: "What about all the hypocrites at church?" "How scientific is science?" "How can you best share what you believe?" and "Does the Bible teach reincarnation?" You can never be too young to learn how to defend your faith… and this book will tell you exactly how to do just that!
