Fairest of Heart (Texas Ever After)

Karen Witemeyer

Sinossi

Once upon a time in Texas . . . 
 
Beauty has been nothing but a curse to Penelope Snow. When she becomes a personal maid for a famous actress whose troupe is leaving Chicago to tour the West, she hides her figure beneath shapeless dresses and keeps her head down. But she still manages to attract the wrong attention, leaving her prospects in tatters--and her jealous mistress plotting her demise. 
 
After his brother lost his life over a woman, Texas Ranger Titus Kingsley has learned to expect the worst from women and is rarely disappointed. So when a young lady found in suspicious circumstances takes up residence with the seven old drovers living at his grandfather's ranch, Titus is determined to keep a close eye on her. 
 
With a promotion hanging in the balance, Titus is assigned to investigate a robbery case tied to Penelope's acting troupe, and all evidence points to Penelope's guilt. But Titus might just be convinced that the fairest woman of all has a heart as pure as her last name . . . if only he can prove it.

Daniel Im

The way that we've done things for centuries has been unsettled and unseated. We're living in a new normal. And while on the surface many of these changes look like the next best thing, there's actually a complex and fragile web of lies holding it all together:  You are what you do  You are what you experience  You are who you know  You are what you know  You are what you own  You are who you raise  You are your past  In You Are What You Do, author and Pastor Daniel Im considers these seven lies and the context that causes them to flourish. Through personable stories, research, and pastoral insight, Daniel will show you how to recognize these everyday lies in your life so that you can discover the truth on the other side.

Meekness - The Strength of...

Esther Jameson

True meekness is often misunderstood. Many associate it with weakness, passivity, or a lack of confidence, yet in reality, it is a profound strength. Meekness is the ability to remain calm, composed, and in control, even in the face of adversity. It is not about surrendering one’s power but knowing how to wield it with wisdom, patience, and restraint. A meek person does not seek to dominate others, nor do they allow themselves to be trampled. Instead, they choose to lead with a quiet confidence that speaks louder than forceful commands or displays of authority.
One of the greatest strengths of meekness is the discipline it requires. It is easy to react with anger, impulsiveness, or pride when faced with opposition. However, meekness demands self-control, the ability to hold back when emotions rise, and the wisdom to respond with grace rather than aggression. This restraint does not stem from fear or insecurity but from a deep sense of inner stability. It is a mark of someone who is secure in their identity and does not feel the need to prove their strength through domination.
Meekness is also a key element in gaining influence and respect. While force may command obedience for a time, true authority is built on trust. People are drawn to leaders who listen, show understanding, and demonstrate humility. A meek leader does not impose their will but instead guides, inspires, and empowers others. They do not seek recognition for their own sake but prioritize the well-being of those they lead. This kind of leadership fosters loyalty, cooperation, and a sense of shared purpose, making meekness one of the most effective qualities in leadership.
