    Prayer: Does It Make Any Difference? Philip Yancey probes the very heartbeat – the most fundamental, challenging, perplexing, and deeply rewarding aspect of our relationship with God: prayer. What is prayer? How does it work? And more importantly, does it work?

    In theory, prayer is the essential human act, a priceless point of contact between us and the God of the universe. In practice, prayer is often frustrating, confusing, and fraught with mystery. This book is an exploration of the mysterious intersection where God and humans meet and relate.

    This Too Shall Last: Finding Grace When Suffering Lingers "This book is not a before and after story."

    Our culture treats suffering like a problem to fix, a blight to hide, or the sad start of a transformation story. We silently, secretly wither under the pressure of living as though suffering is a predicament we can avoid or annihilate by working hard enough or having enough faith. When your prayers for healing haven’t been answered, the fog of depression isn’t lifting, your marriage is ending in divorce, or grief won’t go away, it’s easy to feel you’ve failed God and, worse, he’s failed you. If God loves us, why does he allow us to hurt?

    Over a decade ago chronic illness plunged therapist and writer K.J. Ramsey straight into this paradox. Before her illness, faith made sense. But when pain came and never left, K.J. had to find a way across the widening canyon that seemed to separate God’s goodness from her excruciating circumstances.

    She wanted to conquer suffering. Instead, she encountered the God who chose it. She wanted to make pain past-tense. Instead, God invited her into a bigger story…

    Plain Murder (An Amish Mystery Book 1) In this unique mystery debut, a shallow grave is found on a Pennsylvania farm, and one woman straddling the Amish and outside worlds must uncover a killer – and create a life on her own terms…

    Fifteen years after leaving her Old Order Amish life, Rachel Mast has returned to Stone Mill, Pennsylvania. Corporate success didn’t bring true happiness, but Rachel also knows she can never be Amish again. Instead she runs a B&B and tries to help her community in ways they can’t help themselves.

    But now a gruesome discovery has been made on her Uncle Aaron’s cow pasture – the body of prominent Englisher businessman Willy O’Day. Aaron refuses to hire a lawyer, trusting his innocence, and his faith, to see him through. Rachel isn’t so sure, especially given the long public feud between the two men. Her relatives won’t speak to the police, but they will talk to Rachel – if she puts on a skirt and bonnet. Rachel knows emotions and entanglements run as complicated in the Amish world as outside it. But as she delves deeper to clear Aaron’s name, she discovers secrets that put her own life in danger…

    Last Light (The Restoration Series Book 1) Birmingham, Alabama, has lost all power. Its streets are jammed with cars that won’t start, its airport engulfed in flames from burning planes.

    In the face of a crisis that sweeps an entire high-tech planet back to a time before electricity, the Branning family faces a choice. Will they hoard their possessions in order to survive – or trust God to provide as they share their resources with those around them? Yesterday’s world is gone. Family and community are all that remain. And the outage is revealing the worst in some.

    Remorseless: Learning to Lose Labels, Expectations, and Assumptions Without Losing Yourself Remorseless is the journey of one woman’s constant questioning and confusion about how others-including and especially God-saw her.

    re·morse·less
    /rəˈmôrsləs/
    adjective
    without regret or guilt.

    A transformational expose, each chapter leads readers down a path of self-acceptance, un-apologetically and without regret. Through various stages and seasons of life, you will learn how to navigate triumphs, tragedies, and decisions, without losing sight of who you’ve been all along.

    Impatient by nature, Beth Fisher spent over two decades and many wrong decisions frustrated, until she figured out how to embrace her true self. An empty-nester, divorcee, cancer-survivor and general over-comer of difficult life transitions, Beth outlines-through transparent and humorous accounts-the following hope and instruction to anyone who has gotten off course:

    • Understanding the only narrative that matters–instead of the false and damaging version created by yourself and others–is essential to realizing and believing your own worth.
    • Showing up in your story and doing the next right thing is the way to press through adversity.
    • Ditching labels-which are limiting, useless, and leave you stuck in indecision and inaction-is the way to reclaim who you’ve always been.

    Work in Progress: Unconventional Thoughts on Designing an Extraordinary Life How did a couple of quirky siblings from suburban Pittsburgh end up as the king and queen of eclectic-design chic with their own HGTV show? They never let fear get in the way of a great idea. Leanne and Steve Ford share their secrets for how to turn dreams into reality.

    Leanne and Steve were middle-class kids growing up in Pittsburgh in the 80s and 90s. There was nothing particularly glamorous or unusual about their lives as kids. Leanne was a shy, stubborn child who lived a rich life in her own imagination. Steve was outdoorsy and offbeat and was bullied mercilessly at school for being different. Their parents, grounded in faith and always encouraging of both creativity and hard work, gave them the confidence and the encouragement they needed to pursue the often difficult creative life. Leanne’s slogan as a child was, “My name is Leanne. If I want to, I can.”

    Leanne studied clothing design and pulled gigs at fashion houses in New York and as a stylist to country music stars in Nashville before she found her true passion: interior design. Steve threw himself into kayaking and snowboarding and opening his own men’s clothing store in Pittsburgh. And then their individual passions converged when Leanne asked Steve to help renovate her bathroom. There was magic in their collaboration, and they began renovating for clients in Pittsburgh—creating unique, authentic spaces that manage to feel both chic and completely obtainable—before catching the eye of producers at HGTV.

    Leanne and Steve share the details of their journey, including the beliefs that have inspired them and the experiences that have challenged them along the way.

    Experiencing the Power of the Holy Spirit Bestselling author and pastor Lloyd John Ogilvie has spent years observing—and experiencing himself—the deep needs of Christians, and why those needs for love, comfort, guidance, or discernment often go unmet.

    In Experiencing the Power of the Holy Spirit, he draws on Scripture to illuminate the living and active work of the Spirit. Because many believers have a limited view of their great Advocate, Counselor, Helper, and Companion, they don’t realize that in day-to-day life they can depend on Him to…encourage, guide, and correct them, and prompt them to speak or act appropriately; help them identify deep motives and penetrate to the root of personal struggles; and help them discern in prayer what is best in a situation. When believers build their lives upon reliance on the Spirit, they can live confidently in life’s stressful situations and relationships, knowing they have a Friend who is always there to help.

    How Sweet the Sound Wealth and etiquette can hide a lot of things in the South, as the esteemed Harlan family of sleepy Bay Spring, Alabama, knows. But behind the gentle facade of white pillared porches and acres of cultivated pecan orchards, family secrets smolder.

    Young Anniston Harlan cares little for high society and the rigid rules and expectations of her grandmother, Princella. She finds solace working the orchards alongside her father and grandfather, and relief in the cool waters of Mobile Bay.

    Anniston’s aunt, Comfort Harlan, has never quite lived up to the family name, or so her mother Princella’s ever-apparent scowl implies. When she gleefully accepts the proposal of her longtime boyfriend, Solly, a flood tide of tragedy ensues that strips Comfort of her innocence and unleashes generations of family secrets, changing the Harlan family forever.

    While Comfort struggles to recover, Anniston discovers an unlikely new friend from the seedy part of town who helps her try to make sense of the chaos. Together, they and the whole town of Bay Spring discover how true love is a risk, but one worth taking.

    How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind: Dealing with Your House's Dirty Little Secrets Over 350 5-Star Reviews!

    Bring your home out of the mess it’s in and learn how to keep it under control.

    “The dirty little secret about most organizing advice is that it’s written by organized people,” says blogger, speaker, and decluttering expert Dana K. White. “But that’s not how my brain works. I’m lost on page three.”

    Dana blogs at A Slob Comes Clean, chronicling her successes and failures with her self-described “deslobification process.” In the beginning she used the name “Nony” (short for aNONYmous), because she was sharing her deep, dark, slob secret. Now she has truly come clean—with not only her real name but the strategies she has developed, tested, and proved in her own home. She has learned what it takes to bring a home out of Disaster Status, which habits make the biggest and most lasting impact, and how to keep clutter under control.

    In How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind, Dana explains that cleaning your house is not a one-time project but a series of ongoing premade decisions. Her reality based cleaning and organizing techniques debunk the biggest housekeeping fantasies and help readers learn what really works.
