  She’s in town to find herself, not lose her heart to a single dad. 
  All Kayla Jones is good at is work. So, when her friend talks her into taking a solo vacation in a beach town, work remains her foremost thought, and she rear-ends a stranger’s truck while on a business call. Having a nervous breakdown in front of the handsome driver wasn’t part of the plan—neither was getting her Airbnb reservations messed up. 
  After his wife walked away from their family, single father Tucker Boudreau’s priority is taking care of his son, even if it means running a daycare. When his neighbor asks him to host an overflow guest, Tucker isn’t prepared to fall in love with the beautiful tourist—yet from their first encounter, he feels an irresistible connection with Kayla. 
  But even though she seems to reciprocate his feelings, she’s never been around kids, and his puppy terrifies her. So what happens when they realize they can’t be apart, especially when her vacation ends and she gets a promising call that could heighten her career? 
  Tucker has fought for love before. Does he have it in him to fight for another chance at love?

  Enquiry Concerning the...

  In his authobiography, David Hume declared unequivocally that this work, An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals (1751) is ‘of all my writings, historical, philosophical, or literary, incomparably the best.’ In it, Hume takes the discussion away from traditional attitudes where either rational or metaphysical issues govern moral principles. Instead, he introduces the human factor, introducing the sentiments and passions inherent in human psychology.  
  In the opening paragraph of his Enquiry he states the ground clearly: ‘There has been a controversy started of late, much better worth examination, concerning the general foundation of Morals; whether they be derived from Reason, or from Sentiment; whether we attain the knowledge of them by a chain of argument and induction, or by an immediate feeling and finer internal sense; whether, like all sound judgement of truth and falsehood, they should be the same to every rational intelligent being; or whether, like the perception of beauty and deformity, they be founded entirely on the particular fabric and constitution of the human species.’ 
  He challenges the notion that reason can dictate moral principles independently of our desires and sentiments, arguing instead that reason serves as a tool to navigate and articulate our moral sentiments. 
  Central to Hume's thesis is the concept of moral approbation and disapprobation, which he contends stem from our natural inclination to feel pleasure or aversion in response to certain actions or traits. 
  He pursues his theme with characteristic clarity, concentrating on topics including benevolence, justice, utility, qualities useful to ourselves and others. He rejects moral absolutism which presumes the existence of immutable moral laws. Throughout, he emphasizes the importance of empathy and compassion as essential components of ethical behaviour.  
  Hume's "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals" stands as a testament to his profound insight into the complexities of human nature and morality. 
  This recording also contains two essays which also reflect the independence of his views for his time, On Suicide and On the Immortality of the Soul.

  Duty is all he knows. 
  Logan Keller spent his military career saving lives, but none of that prepared him for raising his out-of-control teenage niece. He’s desperate to get through to her. A charity designed for teens seems like the answer, but when Logan arrives to speak to the director, he interrupts an attack on the woman’s life. 
  Danger surrounds her. 
  Willow Cassidy has dedicated her life to helping teens in crisis. When she’s assaulted in the parking lot of her charity, Willow fears the lime-light created by her uncle’s state senate run is to blame. And the threat isn’t over. A second attack proves someone is determined to kill her. 
  A tenuous plan. 
  Logan can’t leave Willow unprotected. Pretending to be her boyfriend is easy—keeping his growing attraction hidden is much harder. Every move designed to keep her safe ramps up the threat against her. Will Logan’s covert mission save Willow’s life or will it be a deadly failure? 
  Covert Mission is the fourth novel in the gripping Triumph Over Adversity series, but each book can be read as a standalone. If you enjoy stories featuring brave military heroes, intense suspense, and heartwarming romance, then you won't want to miss this captivating read.

  God has given parents the privilege of shaping not just a human being but an eternal soul. Sometimes that responsibility can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to prayer.   In Praying for Your Child from Head to Toe, bestselling author Sharon Jaynes helps us use the words of Scripture to pray over our children with intention. This practical and encouraging guide offers:  A unique head-to-toe pattern to help us make prayer for our kids a natural habit  Thirty brief reflections with sixteen prayers each, taking you from prayers for your child’s mind, eyes, and ears, to their shoulders, gifts, and relationships  Flexibility, whether you are looking for a month-long devotional or Scripture prayers to use again and again  As Sharon reminds us, prayer is not a means of gaining control over our children to make them the men and women we want them to be. Prayer is a means of relinquishing control and asking God to shape our children into the men and women that He wants them to be.

  Say Good-bye to Stress and Burnout, and Hello to Peace and Purpose 
   
   
   
  What comes to mind when you think about prayer? Does it feel like something for holy people but not for you? Or like a mystical experience you could never hope to achieve in real life? Or maybe just a boring duty with little payoff? 
   
   
   
  In this book, author and pastor Chad Veach demystifies the concept of prayer by explaining in practical terms what prayer looks like in our day-to-day lives. It turns out, it's not hard! This passionate, personal approach to prayer removes the pressure to "pray right" and replaces it with the calm assurance that God wants to hear from us and respond to us in love. 
   
    
     
  Along with building a case for the importance of prayer, Chad uses stories and compelling insights from the Bible to give practical advice for how to make your prayers more effective. He highlights where we can and should pray and offers tangible strategies to implement a praying lifestyle within the busyness of modern life. 
   
   
   
  Prayer works! Here's how to connect with God just like He's always wanted.
