  Martha of Bethany is no stranger to adversity. After her mother's untimely death, Martha shoulders the responsibility of raising her siblings--quiet and studious Lazarus, and wild and rambunctious Mary. She finds solace in friendship and the beginnings of first love, but just as Martha begins to imagine a new future, hardship strikes again and her dreams crumble into dust. 
   
  Ten years later, Martha's friend pleads for the new teacher, Jesus of Nazareth, to come and heal her husband. When Martha discovers that the carpenter-rabbi is connected to her past, she's not sure she can trust him with her future. But as he continues to perform miracles, the invitation to believe becomes harder to resist, renewing Martha's hardened heart, even as she faces an unknown future.

  He’s an over-achieving perfectionist. She doesn’t tolerate bossy men. 
  Grant Foster is organized, focused, and hardworking—or as his younger sister calls it, neurotic. When the opportunity of a lifetime—becoming the Vice President of Marketing—is within his grasp, he is determined to succeed. He must rely on the help of an accomplished and beautiful coworker to achieve his goal. A coworker who is as distracting as she is talented.  
  Failure isn’t an option for Celeste Hightower. She’s had to work too hard to get where she’s at. Working with the man she’s had a crush on for the past four years is just another hurdle she needs to cross. Too bad fear of failing keeps her from chasing her true dream.  
  A workplace romance is a bad idea—they rarely work out. And Grant doesn’t break the rules. Especially with so much on the line. He needs Celeste’s help to connect with his younger siblings, though, and she needs moral support to face her estranged father again. The more they work together outside the office, the blurrier the lines become. When Celeste finds out she’s been living a lie, and Grant’s younger sister goes missing, their relationship is put to the test.

  Serious Joy - Reflections and...

  “In Serious Joy, Joey Tomlinson introduces readers to the seventy Resolutions Jonathan Edwards wrote when he was only nineteen years old, showing how they are directly relevant and needful for Christians today. 
  Each resolution is expounded on by Tomlinson in a way that helps the reader establish a regular rhythm of private worship by pointing them to the Scriptures that underpin each resolution. Furthermore, Tomlinson harmonizes the resolutions with other writings of Edwards that bring them into better focus. The goal of this approach is to exalt Christ, foster meditation and prayer, and demonstrate how serious joy in Christ leads to growth in Christlikeness. All of this is accomplished by tethering the reader to the theology of Jonathan Edwards. In so doing, Tomlinson succeeds in bringing a fresh approach to the writings of Edwards by making them more approachable for the Christian who wants to understand the significance and importance of Edwards’ contribution to Christian theology.

  Meditations from Psalm 119 Reveal the Multitude of Gifts God Communicates Through Scripture
  Do you view the Bible as a gift to open or a burden to carry? God—the source of every good and perfect gift—offers abundant promises in Scripture. But sometimes, studying his word feels more burdensome than rewarding. In order to delight in the Bible, believers should anticipate all of the blessings it contains, from the reassuring to the unexpected.
  Each of these 20 brief readings, based primarily on Psalm 119, focuses on an individual gift that God communicates through his word, such as warnings and wisdom that bring repentance. Listeners will explore themes including righteousness, hope, freedom from shame, strength in affliction, and more. Author Uche Anizor pours years of ministry experience and in-depth biblical insight into a series of accessible meditations that help believers see the Bible as an extension of God's mercy and love.
  
  - 20 Meditations: Each brief reading highlights a different gift that God communicates through Scripture
  - Builds Trust for God and His Word: This book helps listeners understand God's manifold, life-shaping grace and follow the Bible's wisdom and instruction
  - Additional Readings: Features hymns at the end of each chapter, a concluding meditation on the many ways we can respond to God's word, and prayers at the end of the book
