    As a proud Black gay minister, Benjamin Carlton gives you a firsthand account of the difficult lived experiences of the intersections of race, faith, and sexual orientation in America. In 2015, cutting against the grain of an entire culture, knowing all that he might lose, Benjamin made the brave decision to come out as a gay minister on TheRoot.com. Sparking national debate, Benjamin’s story resonated with millions who struggle to accept who they are because of society’s prejudices. For years he prayed earnestly in hopes of God “delivering” him from homosexuality, not realizing that his being gay was all a part of God’s perfect design. 
    This spellbinding book shatters the myth of the petty, vengeful, fault-finding God and reveals a God who is loving, compassionate, and wants you to win. Through riveting stories of triumph and defeat, Benjamin uses his wit and unfailing humor to take you on his journey of resurrecting unconditional love. The book is written to help those who are struggling to accept themselves or struggling to accept those who are different from them. Benjamin intends to empower that precious soul that is looking for a path forward that speaks to their identity 
    This book explores: 
    -      The founding of the Black Church 
    -      The whitewashing of Christianity 
    -      The start of discrimination against the LGBTQIA+ Community in the American church 
    -      The journey to gender 
    -      The path to living a free authentic life 
    -      The celebration of Black queer pioneers.

    Jack Wendler needs to leave New York immediately after one too many business deals left his investors penniless.

    Even though he fears breaking Celia's fragile heart. 
    And even though the business partner he crossed in New York could be on his way to Last Chance at any moment. 
    Like all of Cat's books, A Groom for Celia is a sweet and clean romance. It's part of the multi-author Blizzard Brides series, which can be read in order or as standalone books.

    What's behind the UFO's? Are they real? Where are they from? Are they the Nephilim of ages past? What does the Bible say about them? What's their agenda for Planet Earth? This subject has not gone away. On the contrary, much new evidence has surfaced with global implications. Chuck explores the Biblical relevance and disturbing agenda of the apparent extraterrestrial life forms that have been forcing themselves into our global consciousness and reveals their most disturbing agenda. "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders: Insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." (Matthew 24:24) How do you protect yourself?

    The shadows hold secrets darker than they ever imagined. . . . 
     
    In 1888 Victorian England, Ami Dalton navigates a clandestine dual life. By day, she strives to establish herself as a respected Egyptologist, overcoming the gender biases that permeate academia. But with a heart for saving black-market artifacts from falling into the wrong hands, she is most often disguised as her alter ego, the Shadow Broker. 
     
    After eight years in India, Oxford's most eligible bachelor, Edmund Price, has come out of the shadows to run for Parliament and is in search of an Egyptologist to value a newly acquired collection. Expecting a renowned Oxford professor, Edmund instead finds himself entangled with Ami, the professor's determined daughter. As they delve into the treasures, their connection deepens, but trouble emerges when a golden griffin--rumored to bear the curse of Amentuk--surfaces, and they're left to wonder if the curse really is at play, or if something more nefarious is hiding among the shadows. . . . 
     
    "Don't miss all the romance, adventure, and danger in [this] new page-turner."--JULIE KLASSEN, bestselling author of Shadows of Swanford Abbey
