  Doctor-in-training Louisa Vaughn has no intention of remaining in Sweetwater Crossing. She's just there for a few days to help a friend. But she can't abandon the injured man she finds at the side of the road. Until his broken leg heals, she'll serve as the town's doctor and midwife. She may not be fully qualified yet, but surely she's better than nothing. 
   
  Josh Porter's plans to win his grandfather's challenge and fulfill his father's final wish to gain full control of the family business hit a roadblock when he breaks his leg. But his enforced stay in Sweetwater Crossing gives him new ideas about the expansion of the company into new territory--ideas Louisa could help turn into reality.  
   
  If only the town were more accepting of Louisa's talents! Someone is determined to convince her to abandon her dream of healing others. Can Josh help her uncover the person behind the threats before it's too late? And is there any future for them together when neither of them plans to stay?

  Angels & Demons - What the Bible...

  John R. Gilhooly

  Christians in Bible-believing churches often do not receive explicit teaching on angels because expositional sermons focus on the meaning of the text—and the biblical authors are rarely focused on discussing angels. The consequence is that legends or superstitions often cloud our reflections about supernatural beings. Pastors also rarely receive in-depth exposure to this subject in seminary. This book satisfies a need for teaching about the angels for a popular audience who want to speak and think biblically about the spiritual realm, especially because many books on angels teach speculative views or borrow their ideas from other religions of the ancient near east.

  The Hunger Inside - How the Meal...

  The meal that Jesus of Nazareth gave his followers, celebrated with grand liturgy and golden chalice, or words pared lean and tiny plastic cups, is the distinctive rite of the church. The Eucharist is regarded as the source and summit of Christian faith—or maybe just a symbol—but what all Christians know is that Holy Communion does something. It's what and how the supper does what it does that divides us.
  In The Hunger Inside, Brad Roth explores the myriad ways the Lord's Supper transforms lives. As on that ancient gospel hill where more than 5,000 hungry people were fed, the abundance of Jesus' table touches uncountable human stories. Drawing generously on eclectic theological traditions, Roth takes a narrative-driven approach to plumb the rich depths of symbolism, power, and presence communicated in the communion meal.
  This book is a call for all followers of Jesus to encounter again the One who meets our deepest hungers at his table.

  Where’s Her Medal? Why We...

  We live in a culture that worships the comeback but ignores the consistent. Where the woman who spiraled, sinned, and "found herself" gets a microphone, and the woman who never lost herself is treated like a footnote. Where's Her Medal? is a raw, unfiltered cultural wake-up call for anyone who's ever wondered why society celebrates redemption—but mocks restraint. 
  Through dead-serious analysis, dark humor, and disturbingly true social critique, this book exposes how virtue lost its value in a world addicted to visibility, applause, and rebrands. From purity culture to public confessions, feminism's war on modesty to the rise of algorithm-fueled exhibitionism, this book doesn't just challenge the modern narrative—it flips the table. 
  This is not a soft Christian devotional. This is a cultural weapon. 
  If you've ever been the good girl who played by the rules and got ignored, the steady one overshadowed by chaos, or the parent watching virtue be erased by social engineering—this is your manifesto. 
  It's time to stop praising brokenness like it's a badge of honor. 
  It's time to honor the woman who never fell. 
  It's time to ask: Where's her medal?

  ECPA Top Shelf Book Cover Award
  "Look at the birds"
  Through the painful days of the pandemic stuck in her home, Courtney Ellis found herself looking down in despair. Soon after, her beloved grandfather died unexpectedly.
  It was around this same time that Ellis took up watching birds. "Took up" might not be exactly right—as she puts it, "the switch flipped," and she's been borderline obsessed with birds ever since.
  Looking Up is a meditation on birding as a practice of hope. Weaving together stories from her own life, including the death of her grandfather, with reflections on birds of many kinds, Ellis invites us to open our eyes to the goodness of God both in the natural world and in our own lives. By "looking up" to the birds, Ellis found the beauty and wonder of these creatures calling her out of her darkness into the light and hope of God's promises.
