Summary

Her heart longs for peace, but peace won't keep them safe. 
 
Brielle Durand is still haunted by the massacre that killed her mother a dozen years before. Vowing to never let it happen again, she's risen to be the key defender for her people's peace-loving French settlement living in hidden caves in the Canadian Rockies. When a foreigner wanders too near to their secret home, she has no choice but to disarm and capture him. But now, what to do with this man who insists he can be trusted? 
 
Hoping to escape past regrets, Evan MacManus ventured into the unknown, assigned to discover if the northern mountains contain an explosive mineral that might help America win the War of 1812. Despite being taken prisoner, Evan is determined to complete his mission. But when that assignment becomes at odds with his growing appreciation of the villagers and Brielle, does he follow through on his promise to his government or take a risk on where his heart is leading him? Either choice will cause harm to someone. 
 
Brielle and Evan must reconcile the warring in their hearts to have any hope of finding peace for their peoples.

    Unspoken Sermons Series 3

    A titan of 19th century fantasy literature, George MacDonald also left an astonishing collection of sermons, Unspoken Sermons, which are amongst the finest to be found in the English language. About these sermons, C.S. Lewis wrote: “I know hardly any other writer who seems to be closer, or more continually close, to the Spirit of Christ Himself.”   
    The Unspoken Sermons are timeless, beyond time even, and are as clear and as relevant today as they were when they were written in the 1860’s. Taken together they paint a thrilling picture of life, faith, and love that soars beyond the petty doctrines, silly rules, and judgmental dogmas that, alas, have dimmed Christianity in the eyes of so many. 
    Airfish Productions hopes you will enjoy this new rendition of Unspoken Sermons here performed by the masterful voice artist Sean Pratt!

    Join the Resistance - Step into...

    An awakening has been happening across our society. People increasingly recognize how long-standing, systemic issues have prevented many from flourishing. But often Christians are not sure how best to engage. Does it help to march and hold signs? What can we do to contribute and not further complicate things?
    Faith-rooted justice advocate and activist Michelle Ferrigno Warren equips Christians to join Christ's restorative work in the world. In nearly three decades of experience, she left much of her privilege to work alongside the poor and marginalized in the restoration of individuals and communities, collaborating with community leaders, marching in streets, and meeting with and speaking truth to power. She says, "How you show up is just as important as showing up." From the grassroots to the grass tops, Warren invites us to understand our place in this moment and learn from those who have gone before: the poets and prophets who call us to resist oppression and injustice.
    Biblical, historical, and contemporary examples give us ways to walk in God's righteousness, truth, and peace. We can better understand our shared solidarity, persevere in the midst of struggle, bring people along, and remain rooted in joy as we continue the good work of kingdom justice.

    You want more than just a marriage that lasts. You want a marriage you love. 
    We're going to show you how to create it. 
     
    We all want a marriage that feels like home. We long for a partner who is there for us through all of life's challenges and griefs, who is in on all our inside jokes, who looks with hope toward the future with a shared faith and an arm firmly around our shoulder. But what actually works to get us there? 
     
    Based on data from an all-new study of married couples, researchers Sheila Wray Gregoire and Dr. Keith Gregoire uncover the keys to the marriage you long for, including 
     
    ● which surprising struggle causes more long-term unhappiness than sex or money issues 
    ● when compromise can actually make things worse 
    ● how you might be prioritizing sex in the wrong way 
    ● why the "unfairness threshold" matters--and how to avoid it 
    ● how to uncover the real issue when you're in conflict (because it's usually not what you think) 
     
    Rather than relying on gender stereotypes, they look at what actually creates intimacy, emotional health, and connection, asking deeper questions that lead to real healing and growth in your relationship with your spouse. With the evidence-based, Scripture-honoring advice in this book, the marriage you want may be closer than you imagine.

    Celtic Goddess Grimoire celebrates feminine divinities from across Celtic Europe, a wide territory that historically once included what is now Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, and Brittany. In this book, you will meet great goddesses such as Brigid, the Morrigan, Sulis, Rosmerta, Elen of the Ways, and Rhiannon, as well as faery women like Melusine and Morgan Le Fae. The book explores the identity of King Arthur's Lady of the Lake, as well as other Lake Ladies. The book shines a spotlight on the most prominent Celtic female divinities but also includes a section devoted to lesser-known goddesses of the Celtic world, such as the mysterious Nehalennia, who was nearly lost before her shrine was recovered from the depths of the North Sea. 
     
     
     
    A practical guide to working with these sacred beings, the book includes exercises for celebrating, honoring, invoking, and serving them. Author Annwyn Avalon provides chants, rituals, spells, and meditations. The listener will learn how to build altars, craft charms, and actively invoke these Celtic goddesses so that they become a living, vital presence in one's own spiritual life. In addition, Annwyn Avalon provides listeners with information about the meanings of their names, associated sacred symbols and creatures, as well as their personal powers, realms of strongest influence, and historical context.
