  Christians need to pause once in a while to get their bearings. For perspective on our own times and how we got here, it helps to listen to wise guides from other eras. In An Infinite Fountain of Light, the renowned American historian George Marsden illuminates the landscape with wisdom from one such mentor: Jonathan Edwards.
  Drawing on his deep expertise on Edwards and American culture, Marsden explains where Edwards stood within his historical context and sets forth key points of his complex thought. By also considering Benjamin Franklin and George Whitefield, two of Edwards's most influential contemporaries, Marsden unpacks the competing cultural and religious impulses that have shaped our times. In contrast, Edwards offered us an exhilarating view of the centrality of God's beauty and love. Christians' love for God, he taught, can be the guiding love of our lives, opening us to transformative joy and orienting all our lesser loves.
  "There is an infinite fullness of all possible good in God, a fullness of every perfection, of all excellency and beauty, and of infinite happiness," wrote Edwards. "This infinite fountain of light should, diffusing its excellent fullness, pour forth light all around."
  With Marsden's guidance, readers will discover how Edwards's insights can renew our own vision of the divine, of creation, and of ourselves.

  The Voice 
  This project began with a missionary journey to Akum, Ethiopia the Center of the Coptic Church and also the legendary home of the Temple housing the Ark of the Covenant -a magnificent religious work of art which featured two prominent golden Angels extended wings shrouding an ark containing the Ten Commandments, Aaron’s Rod and Manna. The novel picks up the story in the 1990's with an updated archeological discovery and an ensuing battle for control of the legendary Jewish symbol from the time of Solomon. Those in the region battle to exterminate any historical verification of the Jewish Scrolls found throughout the caves of the Middle East. 
  Megalomaniacs are trying to destroy the world, Adventurers are trying to help orphans, rescue the despondent and everyone is competing with a huge religious groups, trying to abscond with the ark. The characters are engaging. It is a fast moving evolving plot set in Detroit, Rome and Africa. It will not disappoint.

  HOLY BIBLE - 2 CHRONICLES: NEW LIVING TRANSLATION (NLT) The Holy Bible, New Living Translation, is an authoritative Bible translation, rendered faithfully into today’s English from the ancient texts by 90 leading Bible scholars. The NLT’s living language breathes life into even the most difficult-to-understand Bible passages—but even more powerful are stories of how people’s lives are changing as the words speak directly to their hearts.  The New Living Translation is perfect for every age and stage of life, allowing every member of the family to read the same text.   What method did the translators use in making the NLT?  The translators of the New Living Translation set out to render the message of the original texts of Scripture into clear, contemporary English. As they did so, they translated as simply and literally as possible when that approach yielded an accurate, clear, and natural English text. Many words and phrases were rendered literally and consistently into English, preserving essential literary and rhetorical devices, ancient metaphors, and word choices that give structure to the text and provide echoes of meaning from one passage to the next.  On the other hand, the translators rendered the message more dynamically when the literal rendering was hard to understand, was misleading, or yielded archaic or foreign wording. They clarified difficult metaphors and terms to aid in the reader’s understanding. The translators first struggled with the meaning of the words and phrases in the ancient context; then they rendered the message into clear, natural English. Their goal was to be both faithful to the ancient texts and eminently readable. The result is a translation that is both exegetically accurate and idiomatically powerful. More than 90 Bible scholars, along with a group of accomplished English stylists, worked closely together toward that goal. In the end, the NLT is the result of precise scholarship conveyed in living, contemporary language.

  Noel: where cookies & ornaments collide. 
  Books and cookies–a match made in heaven? 
  Not hardly. Josh Hart just wants his fledgling bookstore to have a chance, and with every car in the tiny town of Noel parking in front of his store, you’d think he had a good one. 
  Again, not hardly. 
  They’re all taking up his prime parking to get into Honey Pott’s Bakery. Josh is certain if Honey would quit parking her own oversized SUV right smack-dab in front of his door, maybe people could see the store. 
  Enter Milton Coleridge and his trusty parrotlet, Atticus (not Finch). He loves the store, but he has bad news for Josh. Without some major changes, Noel’s first bookstore may be its last.

  Belonging: A Journey of Healing, Forgiving, and Manifesting Everything I Ever Desired is a soul-stirring memoir that dares to ask—what if everything you've ever needed was already within you? 
  From surviving childhood trauma and navigating abandonment to becoming a national youth leader, spiritual visionary, and respected scholar, Dr. Shawn Boone chronicles a path marked by pain, purpose, and profound awakening. Through deeply personal storytelling, he reveals how his search for belonging was never about fitting into the world—it was about remembering his place within it. 
  This is not just a story of survival. It is a sacred declaration of reclamation. In these pages, you will witness how silence becomes sound, how trauma transforms into truth, and how forgiveness becomes the ultimate portal to freedom. At the heart of this journey is the discovery of The Theory of Embodied Vision™, Parallel Actualization™, and the S.E.E.D. Framework™—a powerful process rooted in Stillness, Embodiment, Expression, and Discernment. These guiding principles help readers align with their highest self, break free from inherited patterns, and manifest a life of meaning and purpose. 
  Written with poetic vulnerability and spiritual clarity, Belonging is for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in their own life. Whether you are healing from loss, grappling with identity, or yearning to manifest something more, this book offers a mirror for your truth—and a map back home to yourself. 
  If you've ever whispered "there must be more," this book will show you: there is. And you are it. 
  For readers of spiritual memoirs, personal development, and conscious manifestation, Belonging is both a mirror and a map.
