Unleashing Your Courageous Compassion: 40 Reflections on Rescuing the Unborn

by Susanne Maynes
"You believe in the value and dignity of every human life. You’re troubled by the legal deaths of millions of innocent, preborn children, but you’re not sure how to help. Maybe you feel ill equipped to reach distressed mothers and fathers whose lifestyle and worldview are unfamiliar to you. Maybe you’re intimidated by the controversy surrounding the sanctity of human life. Or maybe an old secret has kept you shamed, silent, and uninvolved. It’s as if you’re standing on a riverbank, wondering how to reach those on the other shore. What if you found out you’re wired with a bolder love than you thought possible? What if God has been equipping you all along for your role in the battle to rescue his beloved little ones? What if you let Jesus lead you into a deep understanding of how to minister to women and men facing pregnancy decisions? It’s time to unleash your courageous compassion!" Available here.

A Life Shared: Meaningful Conversations with Our Kids

by Ellen Martin
"Parents want to share life with their kids, but it is not easy with hectic schedules and life’s demands. A Life Shared offers vision and insight on how to have meaningful conversations through the busyness of life, questions for transformation, suggestions for action, and grace for every parent." Available here.

Racing the Flame

by Lisa Phipps
"Wildfires rage across the drought-stricken Montana ranch land, forcing the Landers family to evacuate their home. Jay and his sister, Katy, must save their terrified cattle from the fire’s grasp. The fire is swiftly gaining when Katy’s horse gallops away from the smoky haze without her rider. Will Jay’s faith be stronger than his fear as he races toward the flame to find his sister?"
