Stephenia H. McGee

A surprise inheritance. A cache of family secrets. A choice that will change her life forever. 
 
Lillian Doyle has lived her entire high-society life with her widowed mother, believing her father died long ago. But when news arrives that her estranged father only recently passed away--in jail--Lillian is startled to find that the man has left a business and all of his possessions to her, making her a rather unusual heiress. 
 
When she goes to take possession of her father's house in a backwoods Georgia town, the dilapidated structure is already occupied by another woman who claims it was promised to her son, Jonah. In her attempts to untangle the mess, Lillian will discover not only a family she never knew she had but a family business that is more than meets the eye--and has put a target on her back. 
 
To discover the truth and take hold of the independence she's always dreamed of, she'll have to make friends with adversaries and strangers--especially Jonah, the dusty and unrefined cowboy who has secret aspirations of his own.

At-One-Ment - An Open and...

Jonathan J. Foster

At-One-Ment dismantles centuries of harmful atonement theology while unveiling a breathtaking vision of God’s uncontrolling, non-violent love; one that transforms rather than punishes. Through deeply personal insights and rigorous theological exploration, discover how Jesus didn’t die to satisfy God’s wrath, but to show us we were never separate from the divine in the rst place. Prepare to have your understanding of salvation, forgiveness, and God’s very nature turned upside down—in the most beautiful way possible.
--I used to believe that God sacrificed himself to himself to save humanity from himself. But what if instead God was at one with Jesus dying on the cross and what if God is at one with us when we suffer? Jonathan Foster’s “at-one-ment” is exactly just that! —Mason Mennenga, YouTuber and podcast host of A People’s Theology
--What Jonathan gives us with this writing is a way to begin to disentangle violence from our religion and in the day and age we live in there may be nothing more important. —Dana Hicks, author of Quest for Thin Places: How to Find Spirituality after Deconstruction
--Jonathan Foster masterfully distills profound mysteries of the divine into accessible, soul-shaping wisdom for our liminal age. His writing, like a well in the desert, offers grounded nourishment to those dwelling in spiritual thresholds, revealing grace not as abstract theory but as embodied belonging. This is essential micro-theology for anyone hungry to encounter the sacred in the tension of transformation. —Thomas Rundel, host of the Liminal Living Podcast

The 40 Day Feast - Taste and See...

Wendy Speake

Many of us believe that the Bible is the Word of God, but we never actually read it. Or we've read bits and pieces, one verse or passage at a time, but struggle to apply it to our daily lives. Perhaps it's because we don't really understand what the Scriptures are all about or how to feast on them. 
 
 
 
That's where Wendy Speake comes in with a fresh twist on her popular forty-day sugar and social media fasts. The 40-Day Feast invites you to get hungry for God's Word, learn how to ingest and digest it for yourself, and, ultimately taste and see just how good (and applicable) it really is. In forty daily devotions, you'll discover the transforming power bound up in your Bible, learn to apply its truths to your daily life, and awaken a deep hunger for more of God and less of the things that don't satisfy. 
 
 
 
Ready for your relationship to God's Word to be transformed? Welcome to the feast!
