    In this book, Pastor Craig tackles a raw and deeply personal issue that many of us face: How do I find the strength and faith to start over after experiencing one of life’s toughest challenges? He refers to these moments as “life-altering events.” To shed light on this topic, Pastor Craig examines the lives, experiences, and lessons of four well-known biblical figures: Job, Ruth, the Samaritan woman (also known as the Woman at the Well), and Mary of Magdala. You’ll quickly realize that these biblical heroes are not so different from many of us. Their inspiring stories of overcoming the unimaginable, with God’s help, will motivate you to embark on your own journey of renewal. Pastor Craig also addresses contemporary challenges such as divorce, church hurt, betrayal, molestation, and the process of rebuilding your professional reputation after a career disaster. Prepare yourself for an impactful journey. It is Pastor Craig’s prayer that you see your own struggles reflected in these characters’ stories and that you find the divine healing and guidance from our Lord Jesus Christ to help you start over and live a victorious, renewed life.

    Little Blacknose is a charming children’s tale about the historic steam locomotive DeWitt Clinton, presented in a storytelling style that brings history to life. The narrative is told from the train’s perspective and follows its journey from creation to its early days of service on the tracks. As “Little Blacknose,” the locomotive faces challenges and doubts, but perseveres through determination, pride, and a sense of purpose. 
    Throughout the story, the train reflects on its origins, the expectations placed on it, and the pride that comes from being part of something greater. Its experiences echo the spirit of early railroad pioneers, showing young readers that progress often comes through humility, effort, and belief. The book also touches on themes of legacy: how even a locomotive’s retirement can symbolize the enduring value of a life well lived in service and ambition. 
    Awarded a Newbery Honor in 1930, Little Blacknose remains a timeless classic—encouraging children to value heritage, perseverance, and the adventure in every journey.
