  He’s the town’s most dependable cowboy with a heart longing for more. She’s a fiercely independent homesteader barely holding her world together. When Brandon shows up on Lenore's doorstep after she puts out a desperate plea for help, neither of them expects the spark to be quite so hot…or quite so promising. 
  Brandon Rhinehart has spent his whole life in Three Rivers, running Hidden Hills Ranch with his brothers and watching as their lives flourish while his own seems to stand still. He’s tired of waiting for God’s plan to reveal itself, and his optimism is beginning to falter. So when a desperate plea for a cowhand pops up on the job board, Brandon decides to leave the familiarity of Hidden Hills behind for something new—a struggling homestead on the edge of town and a woman who’s as headstrong as she is beautiful. 
  Lenore Sawyer isn’t looking for a cowboy—or anyone, for that matter. After the death of her parents, she’s thrown everything she has into keeping their off-grid homestead alive, but the harsh Texas Panhandle weather and endless struggles have left her weary in body and soul. With no one else to turn to, she reluctantly hires Brandon and braces herself to keep the charming, broad-shouldered cowboy at arm’s length. 
  As they rebuild her battered farm, Brandon calls on his brothers, friends, and faith to help Lenore see that she doesn’t have to struggle alone. And little by little, her grumpy exterior softens to the steady sunshine he brings into her life. 
  Both Brandon and Lenore have given up believing in happy endings—until now. Can they let go of their past pain and trust in God, and each other, enough to forge a new future together?

  The Morning of Joy - Words of...

  The morning! That is our watchword. Our evening prayers and songs are filled with hope. The morning adds hue to life, imparting color to that which is colorless, and freshening that which is faded. It is the essence of our hopes and dreams.Stars may help to make the sky less gloomy, but they are not the sun – and besides, clouds have now covered them so they are no longer visible. Torches and beacon lights do not help. Our own lights make no impression upon the darkness; it is so deep, so real, so unmistakable. We might give up all for lost if we were not assured that there is a sun and that it is hastening to rise, and we are watching for it.The church’s pilgrimage is nearly complete, yet she is no less a pilgrim as its end draws near. The last stage of the journey might be the dreariest for her. Her path lies through the thickest darkness that the world has yet felt. It is the sound of falling kingdoms that is guiding us onward. It is the fragments of broken thrones lying across our path that assure us that our route is the true one and that its end is near. Then comes the morning with its songs; and in that morning, a kingdom; and in that kingdom, glory; and in that glory, the everlasting rest, the Sabbath of eternity.We belong to the day, and the day belongs to us, as our true heritage – and when it comes, we will not be ashamed for having zealously awaited that great day.

  Bricks that Build Us Book 2 -...

  Since you recognize that things are going dangerously wrong both worldwide and on our streets, this is a series of four short books for you. They develop the calling for immediate action with many of the avoidable causes identified, listed and remedies stated clearly all in 'crystal clear' language. Now is the time to push back and protect our loved ones, our young, those who are vulnerable and all our futures. Later may well be too late. For many thinking people there is a well-founded and growing disquiet about where our world is going. Undeniably we observe that wasteful preoccupation with owning things which has replaced family values, sound reason, decency and necessary self-discipline for far too many. The me-first society focuses upon personal gratification while rejecting the more central need to think and work together to maintain our community and social family. Discarded is the we-first, polite and supportive normality of quieter times, led now by the shallow, self-interested more grotesque ideas, ideals and human actors. Through this storm of mediocracy and shallow existence can be heard the tramping of media moguls, the infected internet and dead actors of artificial "intelligence", cold scam 'phone callers that daily threaten our loved ones and us. We must most urgently identify our enemies with their manipulative control methods and develop effective counterarguments with successful countermeasures. Unified, self-disciplined, clarified actions, focused on restoring our interdependent caring communities, can and will successfully rebuild common sense and social sanity one brick at a time.
