All That It Takes (A McKenzie...

Nicole Deese

"[A] charming fish-out-of-water tale. . . . Fans of Rachel Hauck should take a look."--Publishers Weekly on All That Really Matters    
 
When the ever-cautious Val Locklier moves cross-country with her son for a secure job, everything she'd planned unravels within the first week. After Val reluctantly agrees to rent an apartment from her best friend's brother, an unexpected chance at an elite filmmakers' mentorship ignites fresh hope for a dream career. But as Val's community begins to expand, so do her insecurities, especially those heightened by her growing attraction to a certain friendly landlord.  
 
Pastor Miles McKenzie returns home from a short-term mission trip to discover that not only does he have an intriguing new tenant living upstairs, he's also been reassigned to a local ministry on life support. Disillusioned and restless, he distracts himself by throwing his energy into a host of new projects--not the least of which is pursuing Val--without stopping to consider the future.  
 
As Val struggles to stop hiding behind the camera and Miles wrestles with shattered expectations, they'll find that authentic love and sacrifice must go hand in hand. 
 
"An exceptional inspirational love story."--Booklist

Leaving Stoneybrook

Sara R. Turnquist

David longs for a grand adventure. One that Mary dreams she might be a part of. 
In the rugged terrains of Cripple Creek, Colorado, David Matthews’ world has always been overshadowed by his father. Each sunrise over Stoneybrook Ranch reminds him of the path laid out before him—a life scripted by expectations he isn’t sure he can live up to. Desperate to carve out a future driven by his own dreams and ambitions, David grapples with his duty to his father and the call of the wild unknown. 
Mary Foster has held a silent affection for David since their youth. And while her mother suffers the ravages of a disease they fight to contain, Mary’s heart patiently beats in the hope that when David finds his place in the world, there might be room in it for her. 
Will their paths diverge in the vast expanse of the frontier? Or perhaps love can guide them to find in each other the very thing they are lacking in themselves—home.

Standing Firm Through the Great...

Steve Gallagher

From the outset, the implications of this book are terrifying. In this thorough, and sometimes disquieting, investigation of the biblical predictions, the Great Apostasy emerges, not as a foreboding future event, but as the very essence of today's postmodern Church. 
Like tares in the wheat field, false adherents are presently growing up alongside true believers. But how will we know them? What are the distinguishing qualities of these apostate confessors? 
This is where Steve Gallagher is at his best. By mining the treasure-laden writings of past centuries and carefully examining the sacred Scriptures, he exposes the prevailing self-centeredness, widespread sensuality, and rebellion to authority that epitomizes this false part of the Body. 
Be prepared for your perspective of the end-times Church to be forever changed.
