Sinossi

LESSON ONE: Stand in the way of the Windy City's criminal world and expect a most improper proposal from an eligible gentleman in return.  
 
With her father dead, her fortune stolen, and her fiancé casting her aside, Miss Drusilla Merriweather's privileged life has been upended. She is left with only one option: to provide for her family by opening a finishing school in the allegedly haunted castle she's inherited from her eccentric aunt. However, her plan is immediately threatened by unscrupulous developers keen on claiming the coveted estate for themselves by any means necessary.  
 
Mr. Rhenick Wittenbecker, a dashing architect with a tendency to charm his way out of trouble, is convinced he can protect Drusilla but is challenged by her fierce independence. Yet when strange occurrences--walking suits of armor and unexpected ghostly visitors--arise within the castle's grounds, Drusilla must decide whether to risk her family's safety and her school on the gallant architect who seems to have found his way into her heart.  
 
Laugh-out-loud witty banter, swoon-worthy romance, and delightful mischief in the Gilded Age string together this entrancing series starter. Fans of clean romance, Christian fiction, and strong female characters will enjoy this read.

    Read by the author. 
    Now more than ever, the world is hungry to gather and thirsty for connection. 
    Many of us wish to share a meal, share our faith, and share our lives with others. We want to open our home to friends and neighbors for the sake of meaningful community, but we're overwhelmed with hospitality hang-ups. How do I extend an invitation? What will they think of my house or the food? Our welcome has been influenced by the messages of the world that tell us hospitality is about our ability to be, host, live, and cook a certain way. 
    In Gather & Give, Amy Hannon inspires you to embrace the simple hospitality of the Bible that values connection more than perfection and people more than presentation. Amy shares scriptural principles and practical ideas to make everyday hospitality a natural, joy-filled part of your life. You will feel encouraged and equipped to view your home as:a holy wellspring of welcome to offer hope to a weary world;a strategic springboard for ministering to those around you; andthe perfect platform for influencing others for Christ. 
      
    Find freedom in knowing that the hospitality of the Bible is uncomplicated and effortless, that a welcome can be used by God to share His love and hope with the world, and that there is abounding joy in following the Lord in His hospitality command. Whether preparing shrimp and grits for a crowd or picking up barbecue with new neighbors, you can invite with intention, plate with purpose, and love others well. 
    Reflection questions and recipes are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

    Countless people are worried, angry, fearful, and just plain confused when it comes to some of the more perplexing issues that life poses and the Bible provokes. Tough Topics provides solid and scriptural answers to 25 such questions. Kelly K. seeks to tackle frustration by looking deeply, not superficially, at what Scripture says, deriving clear and persuasive explanations for these thought-provoking matters. In this deep dive into Scripture, you will learn the answers to these tricky questions: Is it a sin for Christians to drink, smoke, or use medical marijuana? Can you lose your salvation? Is it a sin to live together before marriage? Does God hate piercings and tattoos? Do pets go to heaven? Did Judas go to hell? Are aliens real? If Christians divorce, can they remarry? Can Christians watch horror movies or listen to secular music? What is the unforgivable sin? Do you have to be baptized to go to heaven? And more! We can't walk in the total freedom and peace that Jesus died to give us if we have looming questions about our faith that pastors won't or can't address from the pulpit. This book will arm readers with the biblical truth they need to feel confident in their walk with the Lord.

    The Messiah - The Texts Behind...

    Prophets prophesied about him. Angels and shepherds rejoiced at his birth. Friends cried for joy at his resurrection. And we still celebrate him today. He is Jesus, the Messiah.
    Perfect for Advent or Lent, this eight-session LifeGuide® Bible Study guide explores some of the key passages in the Old Testament about the Messiah and their completion in the life and saving work of Jesus. These passages have had a profound effect on the imagination and worship of Christians for two thousand years, leading George Frederic Handel to write one of the greatest expressions of worship and adoration—his oratorio, the Messiah.
    We hear parts of it sung every year during the Christmas season, but what many listeners fail to realize is that the entire text of Handel's Messiah is drawn from Scripture—and many of the Old Testament passages that shaped Israel's hope for their Redeemer are included in that text. This guide leads you through Scripture passages used in Handel's work that highlight who Jesus is and what he came to do. It might change the way you listen to the Messiah. Even more, it might change the way you live.
    For over three decades LifeGuide Bible Studies have provided solid biblical content and raised thought-provoking questions—making for a one-of-a-kind Bible study experience for individuals and groups. This series has more than 130 titles on Old and New Testament books, character studies, and topical studies.

    When Mothering Is Hard and No...

    Several years ago, Shalene Roberts sat with her two young children under the age of three, wrestling with thoughts about motherhood and wondering why it was so desperately hard. Pulling out her phone, she poured out her thoughts in a blog post entitled "When Mothering Is Hard and No One Sees." Unexpectedly, those honest musings went viral, and that heartfelt post has had more than 630,000 views. 
     
    Now a mother of five, Shalene understands that women everywhere struggle with the all-consuming service of motherhood—feeling unseen and underappreciated. Even those whose motherhood ride has been fairly smooth may wonder if what they’re doing is making any difference. The words in Shalene's post gave voice to these questions. And it was out of that post that this book was born. 
     
    You may be a younger mom or an older mom, a mom of toddlers or teens. The children you care for may be biological, adoptive, foster, or grandchildren. In When Mothering Is Hard and No One Sees, you will feel seen for your own motherhood struggles and challenges. This book helps you gain a new sense of how God views you as you move toward the hope He has revealed to Shalene: a bigger picture of being a mom with an impact that ripples throughout eternity. In creation and in redemption, you were made—and remade—to mother.
