But when we do obey, God can do amazing things. In this book, Marlene picks up where she left off in Making Faith Great Again. When her husband passed away after sixty years of fruitful ministry, God promised her that the best was yet to come. By believing His promise and obeying His promptings, she soon found herself mentoring up to thirty people each week in her condo on the 42nd floor of the Bellevue Towers. This book is filled with just some of their stories, including: •A life-long Christian who allowed early success to distract him from what really mattered, costing him his marriage. •A lapsed Mormon who discovered that following God is about a relationship, not rules. •An immigrant who tried to fill his need for God with drugs and then with money, but found freedom from karma through grace. •A self-proclaimed “lone wolf” who found community in the middle of the COVID-19 shutdown. These stories will inspire your faith and encourage you to obey God in your everyday life…because you never know what miracles He may have just around the corner!

Estos períodos de dislocación pueden ser solitarios e inesperados. Para May, su esposo se enfermó, su hijo dejó de asistir a la escuela y sus propios problemas médicos la llevaron a dejar un trabajo exigente. Invernando explora cómo ella no solo soportó este doloroso momento, sino que aprovechó las oportunidades singulares que le ofrecía. Una conmovedora narración personal repleta de lecciones de la literatura, la mitología y el mundo natural, la historia de May ofrece instrucción sobre el poder transformador del descanso y el retiro. La iluminación surge de muchas fuentes: las celebraciones del solsticio y la hibernación del lirón, C.S. Lewis y Sylvia Plath, nadando en aguas heladas y navegando por los mares árticos. En última instancia, Invernando nos invita a cambiar la forma en que nos relacionamos con nuestros propios tiempos de barbecho. May modela una aceptación activa de la tristeza y encuentra alimento en un retiro profundo, alegría en la belleza silenciosa del invierno y estímulo para entender la vida como cíclica, no lineal. May, un místico secular, forma una filosofía rectora para transformar las dificultades que surgen antes del inicio de una nueva temporada. - Katherine May es escritora tanto de ficción como de no ficción. Su periodismo y ensayos han aparecido en una variedad de publicaciones como The Times, Good Housekeeping y Cosmopolitan.

A single mother of four, Angie Cella dreamed one night about a device that put gems in her hair. She woke up thinking she would invent it, because she loved what she had seen. A few weeks later, she had a second dream. In this one, God told her, “I want you to make this product.” As a woman with a burgeoning faith who’d been waiting for just this kind of direction, Angie spent the next several years navigating the tough and often painful—yet ultimately gratifying—road to success. Blinger is the story of how Angie brought that dream to life, building a successful business out of nothing but inspiration and hard work. Along with helpful business tips, Angie candidly shares all the fun and excitement, plus the letdowns, the failures, and the pain of bringing an invention to life—and how the power of faith can propel us when we feel like we just can’t go on anymore. Blinger is a testament to the belief that any dream is possible if you work hard and stay true to your faith.
