    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.

    Grace McKellon isn't a 'people person'. All she needs is her magic tricks and her wise-cracking grandmother - until a new friend comes along and promises to make her a social media star. A wonderful and intriguing middle fiction novel from an internationally acclaimed, bestselling Australian author. 
     
    I don't know about love. I suspect the emotion that others apparently feel all the time is just . . . absent from me. Like there's an ingredient missing from the recipe. The possible exception is Gran. 
     
    Grace cares about only two things: performing magic and her cantankerous gran. Gran shares her prickly personality and spiky sense of humour, and she's the only one Grace lets into her tightly locked heart – until she meets Simon, a schoolmate who promises to help her turn her magic tricks into a small business and social media stardom. 
     
    When Gran is diagnosed with a terminal illness, Grace moves in to become her primary carer. With the help of Simon and some sleight of hand, Grace is determined to bring joy back into their lives. And when she confronts her worst fear, she realises maybe her heart doesn't need to stay locked away after all.
