Living Beloved

11,99 $

Through the stress of motherhood, God is inviting you to live as His child.
Caring for your little ones is exhausting. Chances are you’ve had plenty of times when your memory is foggy, your patience is fraying, and you long for a good night’s sleep. So if you also long for refreshing times with the Lord, what do you do?

During author Erin Hawley’s difficult transition to motherhood, God provided her with spiritual nourishment from a surprising place-her own children. As she studied how her toddlers related to her, she learned to see her relationship with God the Father in a whole new way.

And now God is inviting you to see Him in a new way, too.

Filled with biblical insight, the author’s honest stories, and thoughtful reflection questions, this encouraging book will nourish your soul as you nourish your children.

Erin Hawley is a wife, mom to two small boys, practicing lawyer, and professor of law.

Desperate Forgiveness

Duck Dynasty stars Al and Lisa Robertson were desperate for their love to survive-and with God’s help, they realized the only answer to marital and family betrayal is all-consuming, life-altering, desperate forgiveness. In their new book, they share this message with anyone who wants to exchange broken relationships for healing.

The Robertsons know what they’re talking about: They have lived through the pain of adultery and lack of communication in their marriage. And thanks to the healing they’ve experienced, they now help other couples find their own path to forgiveness.

This former pastor of 22 years and his wife want you to arrive at a place where you, too, can give and receive forgiveness and find the beauty of reconciliation.

By sharing true stories from friends and family, as well as biblical examples, Desperate Forgiveness provides the support you’ll need on the hard road to forgiveness. You’ll learn about the necessity and power of humility; the freedom found in letting go of bitterness; and the restoration and reclamation on the other side of desperation. Al and Lisa Robertson are living proof that choosing and living out forgiveness is worth the effort. Let Desperate Forgiveness show you the way to a changed life and revitalized marriage.

A Home Built from Love and Loss

10,99 $

"When I entered the church sanctuary, I expected bright, beaming faces, joining me in the joy that those lonely years were now a distant memory. Instead, I was greeted with a host of red, puffy eyes. Tissues were everywhere as I passed each row. It felt more like a wake than a wedding."

As Sabrina McDonald walked down the aisle for the second time, there were tears of joy for the happy couple, but there were also tears of sadness. Sabrina’s wedding to Robbie was another reminder that two of their loved ones were missing.

After Sabrina’s first husband died in a tragic accident, remarriage wasn’t really on her radar. But when she met Robbie, himself a widower, she knew that the Lord had provided a godly man who could help raise her children. Sabrina and Robbie entered their marriage brimming with hope, but reality soon set in.

After more than a decade together, Sabrina and Robbie have learned that blending a family is never easy. Whether you are widowed, divorced, or married to someone who has been, Sabrina wants you to know that grieving is part of every blended family. And the healing process often takes longer than you expect.

With honesty and vulnerability, Sabrina reveals the mistakes she’s made and shares the lessons she’s learned about dealing with grief, family traditions, parenting kids from different ages and backgrounds, working together as a couple, and forming a new identity as a blended family.

Though the journey isn’t easy, A Home Built from Love and Loss is a beautiful reminder that it’s worth it.
