Entering the backwoods cabin, knowing it belonged to a man, required all the courage LeeAnne Blake could muster. But what choice did she have? The road, to that point, had been completely deserted. And she was half-frozen after walking at least two miles since her car had died on her, and then flailing through the drifts between the road and the cabin.

After 12 years of virtual isolation, the last thing Matthew McBain expected to find in his cabin was a woman. And her story – that she got lost and ran out of gas – was entirely implausible. No one could accidentally turn onto a logging road. But then, he grudgingly admitted, the signage at that corner could confuse someone from out of the area – especially someone from Chicago.

She’s My Brother and I Miss Him is the fascinating and heartbreaking story of a loving family and its secrets, told by Shirleyanne Thom. Shirley and her brother were only one year apart in age when her four year old brother Gene started wearing her clothes. 

As a child, this seemed unproblematic to Shirleyanne.  By six years old their parents realized Gene was a crossdresser and decided to keep it a secret.  No one in the family, including Gene, ever talked about it again – until fifty years later.

What if a dear friend or relative told you that they cannot believe the Bible because it is teaching ideas contrary to common sense and proven science? Sharing the gospel with another person can be hard enough, but when the subject of creation comes up in the discussion, communication often suffers, and the gospel message can be lost. 

In And There Was Light, the author shows that there is no conflict between what the Bible affirms and proven science concerning the age of the universe. A careful examination of Genesis finds that scripture does not provide all the details of creation that some assume when they declare that everything was created six thousand years ago. 

The universe, and all that is in it, is the work of God, and the Bible is the Word of God. It is not logical for the works of God to be a contradiction to the Word of God. 

Someday our children, who have been raised in the church, will leave home, and move on in society. When they see the evidence and learn the truth concerning the true age of the universe, will they question the Holy Scriptures and possibly leave the faith? This does not need to happen, and the first step is truly discovering what the scriptures actually say about creation and understanding these works and words in context.

This heartwarming tale of how one friend helps another find their inner light and purpose will touch both children and adults alike!

Randy (short for Randle) is a misfit candle made in a factory in Paris, the City of Lights. Because he doesn’t look like the other candles in his batch, he is labeled “imperfect” and  placed on a shelf all alone.

While cleaning out the back room, Luken, a factory worker, sees Randy and decides to take him home. It is here where a special friendship forms between Randy and Candy, a beautiful red-and-white-striped holiday candle.

Randy and Candy quickly become best friends, spending hours talking about their hopes and dreams. Randy is sad and afraid that no one will ever give him a chance to share his light. Candy encourages him and says, “Don’t be sad, Randy! You’re a special candle, and soon everyone will see your light shine!” They both promise to be there for each other no matter what happens.

See how Randy finally finds his purpose and gets a chance to shine and save the family from a horrendous storm! Through this touching story, the author gives powerful testimony to the importance of teaching children the power of friendship, compassion, empathy, acceptance, and resilience.

The author dedicates this book to all children, who are special and beautiful in their own uniqueness. Each of us has a light that shines deep within. The moment we find that light and the ability to share it with others we feel a sense of connection and belonging. As grownups it’s easy to forget that we too were once young children, longing to be seen, loved, and heard. It is a longing that we never grow out of, one that is not age specific, but one of human necessity. Encouraging and helping our children on their journey to find their own inner light and talents will assist them in finding their voice and ultimately, their purpose.

BETWEEN TWO SEAS

In ancient times, Melitene is ravaged by violence, poverty, addiction, and unrest. The new governor, Trebonius, is charged by the emperor to bring stability to the island. He seeks the counsel of two leading Melitenians who represent diametrically opposite world views.

Solon is a humble seeker of his Creator. Alacerius believes only in man-made solutions, with himself in charge. Alacerius wins the governor’s favor and begins implementing his program of atheism, the corruption of morals, collectivization, coerced population control, and imprisonment or worse for all who oppose him.

Trebonius sends his seventeen-year-old son, Publius, to live incognito among the people to gauge how Alacerius’s reforms are affecting them. At the school in the main city of Mathos, Publius meets sixteen-year-old Amoenitas and her temperamental younger sister, Eletia. Publius and the two sisters soon find themselves entangled in a labyrinth of murder, deception, intrigue, real and misplaced romance, a prophetic dream about a messenger of hope, and historical events that affect the world to this day.

The players on the world stage have changed with the generations. Science has advanced. But one constant has always remained—the relentless struggle between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness.

THE COURIER:  The Courier  is the sequel to Between Two Seas.

The book spins a tale of rousing action, romance, intrigue, persecution, heartbreak, redemption, and triumph. How the first century followers of Christ dealt with their hardships informs us how we who dwell in the twenty-first century should live in our time, as we face the same age-old struggle between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of darkness.

The story begins with the shadowy, cloaked figure sailing from the island of Melitene, leaving behind a path of misery and destruction. But though the young man has escaped the island, can he escape himself?

Fifteen-year-old Eletia, pregnant and new to the faith, is wondering how she will raise her child alone, with the father nowhere to be found. Though the fledgling church on Melitene is thriving under the leadership of Publius and his wife Amoenitas, sinister forces are at work on the island, determined to destroy both freedom and the church. 

The centurion Julius, a follower of Christ, is charged with conveying Paul to Rome. He longs to leave the army and to settle down to married life. A certain young lady has caught his eye, but duty comes first. Inspired by the book of Acts and within the historical context of the first century church and its surrounding culture,
