Pastor Jerome Tyler “JT” Thomas is charismatic behind the pulpit, charming to all he comes in contact with, and lethal to those who linger too long. Since the age of twenty-two, when he prayed for God to keep him out of prison, JT knew he would preach the gospel. Bishop Turner makes it possible; but there are strings attached, and now JT isn’t sure he can stay tied down.
Cutting loose causes more problems than JT anticipated. When an old friend from his days on the streets resurfaces and his “extracurricular activity” comes knocking on his front door, JT’s life and the lives of those close to him spiral out of control. Now he will need divine intervention to make things right. But how much help can a man hope to receive when he feels he’s been forsaken by God?

Laina Strickland is exceedingly exasperated because her husband, Dan, influenced her to abandon her New York City career and jointly purchase a Victorian Cape May bed and breakfast. In the blink of an eye, Dan develops his job description into one related solely to playing golf with their guests, leaving Laina frazzled and overwhelmed with the responsibility of operating their business essentially alone.
From New York City to Cape May, New Jersey and extending to Las Vegas, Laina’s story evolves into far greater challenges than this ultra-conservative woman of faith has ever imagined. Can Laina gracefully tap dance around the advances of her Las Vegas cousin’s shameless, womanizing boss even when their lives are in danger?
Discovering that attempting to walk through life on the narrow road does not exempt us from being exposed to a variety of trying situations, Laina must quickly decide how to survive–both physically and spiritually. Will her marriage to Dan survive, or are they traveling on separate and distant roads?
Curl up with Eyelash for a touch of humor, a bit of mystery, and a sprinkling of inspiration. You will be guided through fascinating family relationships and beyond!

What’s Your Story? Icebreaker Questions for Small Groups by Cheryl Shireman
92 pages, 4 of 4 reviews are 4-star, Lending Enabled, Previously Free
You do not know a person until you know their story. We each have a story and it is filled with both factual details and personal details. I believe the amount we are willing to reveal to another is in direct proportion to the amount they are able to love us. You cannot love what you do not know.
When a group of people get together, one of the quickest and easiest ways to get to know one another is through the use of questions that prompt us to tell our story. That is the purpose of this book. The material is divided into three sections. New small groups might want to start near the front of the book with questions that are easier to answer.
Getting to Know You is a series of factual questions that will allow you to know someone at a surface level.
Getting to Know What You Think questions are a bit deeper and allow you to begin to know a person’s experiences as well as their thoughts on various subjects.
Getting to Know What You Feel are a series of questions that often require a bit more of thought before answering.
