The work embodies a unique synthesis of Eastern and Western mystical traditions, reflecting the burgeoning interest in Theosophy during the late 19th century.

    In 1837, Juniper Collins and her sisters are shocked by their father's deathbed request for them to return a special set of beads to a Piegan Blackfoot woman he credits with saving his life during his travels West. Together, the sisters set out for the trapper rendezvous to find the woman, but their mission turns more daunting when they come upon the mass of men and lodges spread out in the Green River Valley. 
     
    Riley Turner came West to find peace and quiet and live off the land, but when four unprotected women arrive at the rendezvous, he feels compelled to help them and is more fascinated by Juniper than any other woman he's known. 
     
    As their search brings only empty leads and dead ends, the sisters must decide whether to return East or stay in the mountains to continue looking--and that's if the mystery woman is even still alive. Is the risk to honor their father's last request worth the danger they find at every turn?

    Pastor Caleb Campbell has watched as Christian nationalism has taken over large swaths of the United States. And he's suffered the relational fallout of standing against it, both in his community and his church.
    Campbell argues that while it's possible to be both a Christian and hold Christian nationalist ideas, Christian nationalism itself is an un-Christian worldview, rooted in ideas about power, race, and property that are irreconcilable with Christian faith. Campbell has come to see himself as a missionary to Christian nationalists, reaching out to them with the love and freedom found in Christ.
    Disarming Leviathan aims to:
    
    - provide a deeper understanding of the modern American Christian Nationalist movements and their relationship to American Evangelicalism.
    - explore reasons why so many of our loved ones are committed to it.
    - equip Jesus-followers with loving, hospitable methods for engaging American Christian Nationalists.
    - provide graciously subversive methods for responding to American Christian Nationalist rhetoric, beliefs, and practices.
    
    Christian nationalism has become an established feature of the American political landscape. With Disarming Leviathan, you can be prepared to confront it with compassion and hospitality, and with the truth of the good news of Jesus.

    Can the lonely thread of her life be woven into a new and finer pattern? 
     
    When Saoirse Fagan arrives at Drumboe Castle to start her new job as housemaid, she is dismayed to learn that the lord of the house passed away a week prior. Already running from the tragedy that claimed the lives of her family members, Saoirse wanders the road through the darkening glen with nowhere to go until Aileen McCready offers her a lift and a place to stay for the night.  
     
    Aileen's brother, sheep farmer and weaver Owen McCready, is known for his intricate and impeccably woven tweed. But when he's injured, his entire livelihood is endangered. A new--and distracting--mouth to feed adds fuel to the fire, and Owen struggles to keep his family afloat. Though Saoirse is eager to help, even offering to learn the weaving craft, Owen is hesitant to accept aid from this strange young woman, no matter how inexplicably magnetic he finds her.  
     
    But Saoirse is not one to give up easily. She's determined to convince the McCreadys that they need her--perhaps as much as she needs them. 
     
    "Jennifer Deibel is an amazing writer and storyteller. She weaves a tale of love and forgiveness that's as beautiful as the cloth she describes."--Tracie Peterson, bestselling, award winning author of over 140 books, including The Heart of Cheyenne and the Pictures of the Heart series
