It is also the story of her friendship with Josef Karski, who teaches her how to trust in God as he reveals his own story of surviving the horrors of Auschwitz. And finally, it is the story of Nova Tierney, Catherine’s daughter, and the threads that bind their lives together. Ann Tatlock has skillfully and gracefully woven a tale you won’t soon forget.

So You Think Your Mind is Revewed? by Cornel Marais
102 pages, 14 of 15 reviews are 5-star, Lending Enabled, Previously Free
Traditions of man nullify the Word of God. This book is all about breaking those traditions and is not a general feel-good-about-myself-I’m-a-good-Christian either. You will find that this is a straight forward and sometimes challenging book. This book was not written to show you everything you might be doing wrong, but instead to show you the treasures in you that are illegitimately hidden and often unknowingly kept from the world. I you as a believers lies the greatest grace-empowered treasure, to heal the sick, the set the captives free, to proclaim freedom and goodwill to all mankind. For God so LOVES the world that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, The Christ, to live in and through every believer by His Spirit, so that through Him and by His sacrifice, the lost can be brought back, the sick can be healed and the oppressed can be set free. – Cornel Marais

Famous Bible Verses: 21 Most Misquoted Verses by Dvid Hagan
69 pages, 4 of 8 reviews are 5-star, Lending Enabled, Previously Free
I sat in church listening to a charismatic preacher proclaiming the Word of God in an enthusiastic fashion. I was fascinated by the amount of Bible quotations he reeled off in his one-hour message! I was surprised by the fact that though I was a new believer – having been in Christ for just two years – I could complete some of the scriptures he quoted. However, as one year rolled into another I had to face the embarrassing fact that despite being able to finish off many bible verses, the following essential ingredients were missing:
1. I could not tell you where those scriptures were in the Bible.
2. Even if I could locate them using Strong’s Concordance, Bible, biblegateway.com or crosswalk-com, I was not aware of the context in which it was said, the actual storyline and how God intended the scripture to be used.
3. Finally I was forced to face a fact that I was far from being a Berean Christian, miles away from where God will desire for me to be and far from being “…a workman that need not to be ashamed, who correctly handles the Word of truth” (2 Timothy 2).
The truth was that if I didn’t understand the context of a particular scripture, someone could easily misquote it to me intentionally or unintentionally and I would believe whatever I was told.
This book will help you understand some of those famous bible verses!

Show Me A Man’s Check Register And I Will Show You His Heart.As a pastor I’ve heard that taught many times over the years. I’ve said it dozens of times myself – and I sincerely believe that it is true. Godliness is often displayed through a man’s wallet. When you think of the godly people you’ve known in your life, it’s highly likely that one of their greatest character traits was that they were generous givers to God and His people.
There is a direct correlation between a person’s faith and their finances. This book is a testimony to that truth. Jesus spoke about money and material possessions more than he talked about heaven, hell, or prayer. He understood that there is a close relationship between a man’s heart and his wallet. Jesus knew that one of the hardest, and last, things a follower could give to God was control of his finances. When God controls your money, it’s a good sign that He controls the rest of you as well.
When your faith and finances merge together, materialism, greed, and self-centeredness, begin to fade away which makes room for generosity, compassion, and selflessness – the character traits that make us more like Jesus. Ultimately, that’s what this book is all about. – Gene Jennings is an Associate Pastor at True North Church in Augusta, South Carolina and the author of Laughing With Sarah.
Thoughts on a Godly Marriage by Jason Ponzio
153 pages, no reviews, Lending Enabled, Previously Free
“Thoughts On A Godly Marriage” is written to help us all have a better marriage. The focus of this book is to help men realize their God given role in a marriage. It is also to help us all see God’s design for marriages. Each of us need to refocus our attention in our marriage, or any relationship, from ourselves to our wives and ultimately to God. By doing so hopefully we can rebuild marriages into what God has designed them to be. Another focus in this book is the difficulties we can face in our marriages. Each of us has problems or issues from time to time. One of the greatest challenges that we can face in a marriage are sexual and intimacy issues. It is my prayer that anyone who reads this book will prayerfully seek God in their marriage. By no means do I pretend to have all the answers. I can only share what I feel that God has put upon my heart. This book reflects some of my problems and issues that I have dealt with over the years. Let us all seek God in all we do together, in Christ we can overcome all problems that are thrown our way.
I pray that you will seek God as you read this book. I pray that He will uplift you and help you build a marriage that will glorify Him…

In Ephesians 5, the Apostle Paul calls husbands to sacrifice and calls wives to submit. These instructions have often been interpreted as overbearing and more than spouses are willing to give to one another. Because the Apostle Paul did not give clear examples of sacrifice and submission in action, his instructions have often been misinterpreted and even abused, especially in the case of submission. It is also overlooked that our sacrifice and submission is first and foremost obedience to Christ and, therefore, are not the keys to a perfect marriage. In an exegetical study of Revelation 2 and 3, author R. Joseph Ritter, Jr. provides seven illustrations of Christ’s sacrifice for the church and leadership over the church and the church’s submission to Christ. The results of this study are seven examples of sacrifice and submission in action. R. Joseph Ritter, Jr. also shows how obedience to Christ in marriage unlocks the promises Christ has for us and deepens our relationship with Christ. This is not a book on improving your marriage. Instead it is a book on strengthening your relationship with Christ and giving Christ full latitude to work in your marriage.

Wisdom is a Heart Thing by BL Landis
144 pages, no reviews, Lending Enabled
Where are the wise? In this world now saturated with learning, technology and communication are we getting any wiser? Are the graduates of high schools and colleges armed with wisdom when they leave? Knowledge is not the same as wisdom. People are ravenous information seekers, but where is the life changing wisdom? Education and technology don’t seem to quell the erosion of the moral fabric of our society or fill the hungers within mankind. In the Christian world you might hear that Christ is the answer, but how? How is Christ the answer? He is the answer because He is God’s wisdom to man. True wisdom is found in Him and accessed through Him.
We find Jesus introduced as the Savior or the Messiah. He is called the Lamb of God, or the Son of God. Around the Holidays He is presented as the Prince of Peace or Wonderful Counselor. These and many others are all correct portrayals of Him, but there is one more that you don’t hear as often. He is also Wisdom. God’s wisdom is where the power lies to change lives and circumstances.
Jesus Christ is the channel for this powerful, amazing, healing and life changing wisdom to come into our lives and impact our world. Wisdom is a heart thing and Jesus Christ is the pathway to it.

Isolated, clinging to the isolation, I huddled in the ugly rough shell of addiction, hatred, fear, resentment. How could I know others of my kind lay within easy reach? Yet when the shell cracked, just a bit, I found others just like me who understood. Not alone, I learned others, for centuries, shared the fears, overcame the resentments, set aside addiction, substituted love. I found friends in books, especially the Bible and the Big Book, Alcoholics Anonymous. Not alone, I stood with you, with many others, in a cloud of witnesses to recovery. In A CLOUD OF WITNESSES – TWO BIG BOOKS AND US Barbara Rollins responds to Hebrews as she did to Ecclesiastes in A TIME FOR VERSE – POETIC PONDERINGS ON ECCLESIASTES. Joined by OAStepper, author of SLENDER STEPS TO SANITY – TWELVE-STEP NOTES OF HOPE, the responses are written not only to the scripture but to companion quotations from the Big Book, ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS.
