    Based on true events of the Cristero War--one of the darkest times in Mexico's history. 
    1927: In the wake of the Revolution, Mexico's Government bans the Catholic Religion. Federal soldiers execute priests in front of their churches and massacre entire villages of people who continue to worship. The people rise in rebellion against their own government. The women form the Joan of Arc Women's Brigade, which grows to 25,000 women strong between Guadalajara, Mexico City, and all the surrounding villages. They go undercover to obtain information and smuggle ammunition and supplies to the men fighting. During the entire war, there is not a single defection, and the women are not discovered until the end... 
    Mariana has a hardworking but idyllic life on a citrus ranch in California. She is sheltered and protected by her family and older brother, Emilio. That is, until tragedy strikes. Emilio is murdered. To cover up the crime, a powerful man has Mariana's family of seven deported to Mexico, a place she barely remembers. Her family is dropped off at the Tijuana border and forced to enter Mexico. Prohibition north of the border has caused Tijuana to erupt with new saloons, casinos, and brothels, earning the nickname 'Satan's Playground.' Mariana's father heads to Guadalajara to find work, leaving the rest of the family behind in Tijuana. 
    Mariana's education and beauty give her many opportunities to help support her family, but she is overly naïve. When Mariana trusts the wrong person and disgraces herself, her mother ships her off to Guadalajara to find her father--right into the heart of the rebellion. Mariana has never spent a single night away from her family. Now, she is on a two-day train ride through the desert with nothing but a suitcase and an address. Will Mariana find her father before it is too late? Or will she end up dead along with the other 30,000 men, women, and children who died fighting for their religious freedom?

    HOLY BIBLE - NUMBERS: 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.

    Six months in the top 100 of Christian Discipleship on Amazon, and four months in the top 50! 
    How do I know if what I hear from God is really from God? How can I know if I am truly redeemed? How can I tell what emotions come from me, and what come from the Holy Spirit? 
    In a classic work that has only become more and more relevant, Jonathan Edwards delivers a masterful summation of what it means to be a true Christian. Learn how to distinguish the words of the Holy Spirit from the whisperings of the flesh as Edwards dissects the tendencies of the false Christian and lays bare the characteristics of a true regeneration in Christ. 
    Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758) has been called the greatest philosophical theologian America ever produced. He played a critical role in the Great Awakening of the 1730's and 1740's, and was the first president of the college that later became Princeton University. His sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" is considered by many to be the most influential sermon ever preached in the United States, and his theological writings provided the foundation for many abolitionist teachers and preachers of the 18th and 19th centuries. 
    Draw near to God in a new way and adore Him for who He is as you enjoy the razor-sharp reasoning of one of the world's greatest theologians, now delivered in clear, modern prose!
