  Shadows of the past linger… 
  Piper Jensen escaped her small-town, seeking a new life without the baggage of her childhood. Her only regret: breaking up with her first love through a hastily scrawled note. A decade later, when her sister is hurt in a car accident, Piper moves home to help care for her niece and nephew. Juggling her duties as a detective for the Rock Fort Police Department with the needs of her family is a struggle. And then her life is threatened… 
  Texas Ranger Jackson Barker has never forgotten Piper. The tough-shelled teen he once loved has grown into a brave woman with a badge and a gun. When a young woman is murdered—and Piper’s life is endangered—Jackson becomes the lead investigator. He’d prefer to keep some distance from his former sweetheart, but she insists on working together, especially when a clue ties Jackson’s childhood friend to the crime. 
  A subsequent assault confirms Piper’s deepest fears. These aren’t random crimes. They’re targeted attacks. Jackson vows to defend her, but his protection may not be enough. The killer is playing a deadly game and his obsession requires one final trophy: Piper.

  In the Garden of Eden, as soon as God buried Vegetables in the ground, and put Fruits on trees and vines, the Fruits began to argue among themselves. "I am hardiest,” said Apple. "I am sweetest," said Grape. "Enough!" said God, sending two caretakers to the Garden. "Eat me!" the Fruits called to the caretakers. "Listen to the Fruits," the snake hissed. Wanting things to be easy was the first real problem in the Garden. It was much easier for the caretakers to pick the Fruits than to dig up the Vegetables, so the caretakers listened to the snake. One of the lessons of this story: Growing food begins with hard work.

  Friendship for Grown-Ups - What...

  Do you long for a true friend? 
  "Isn't that what we all want? To be seen, in all our glory, for better or worse, the good, the bad, and the ugly and still be embraced?" 
  If only such friendships were easy to find. And keep. For Lisa Whelchel and millions of others, friendship is a challenge. The vulnerability, trust, balance, grace, and time required to develop and maintain strong friendships do not come easily. 
  Growing up as an actress in Hollywood, there were few people Lisa could trust, and even fewer to guide her. By the time she reached adulthood, she had learned to be self-sufficient. She was strong, she was “safe,” and she was lonely. 
  One day, Lisa found that “the desire to experience connection was stronger than the desire to be safe.” She determined right then to finally understand friendship: how to create one, sustain it, and experience the sheer joy of having it. But it wasn’t easy. 
  Since then, she has traveled the ups and downs of friendship, learning about herself, others, and the kinds of friendship God designed. 
  A speaker, teacher, and compelling storyteller, Lisa writes from her heart and her head, sharing her story and helping women understand how to cope with the strengths and weaknesses of friendship, and basing all her advice on the foundation of our ultimate relationship with the Savior. 
  Accompanying questions and appendixes are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

  Wagon-train scout Jake Holt senses that the mysterious women in his caravan are running from something. When rumors begin to spread of Pinkerton agents searching relentlessly for wanted criminals who match the description of those on his wagon train, including Beth, she begins to open up to him, and he learns something more sinister is at hand.

  Centering Discipleship - A...

  Discipleship without mission is discipleship without Christ. 
   
   
   
  The church often lacks maturity and missional impact because discipleship is at its periphery. In order to get discipleship to the center, leaders need a locally rooted, culturally contextual discipleship pathway to tether disciples who are disciplemakers to the neighborhood or network around them. 
   
   
   
  Pastor and discipler E. K. Strawser shows that when discipleship becomes central to your leadership and community, then discipleship becomes central to congregational mission and cultural renewal. Centering Discipleship is a gutsy practice-based guidebook for leaders who are doing the hard work of reimagining and restructuring their churches and communities to turn spectators into missional, mature followers of Jesus.
