Hope's Highest Mountain (Hearts of Montana Book #1)

Misty M. Beller

Maison d'édition: Bethany House Publishers

Synopsis

Ingrid Chastain readily agreed to accompany her father to deliver vaccines to a mining town in the Montana Territory. She never could have anticipated a terrible accident would leave her alone and badly injured in the wilderness. When rescue comes in the form of a mysterious mountain man who tends her injuries, she's hesitant to put her trust in this quiet man who seems to have his own wounds. 
 
Micah Bradley left his work as a doctor after unintentionally bringing home the smallpox disease that killed his wife and daughter. But his self-imposed solitude in the wilds of Montana is broken when he finds Ingrid in desperate need of medical attention, and he's forced to face his regret and call on his doctoring skills once again. 
 
Micah can't help but admire Ingrid's tenacious determination despite the severity of her injuries, until he learns the crate she brought contains smallpox vaccines to help quell a nearby outbreak. With Ingrid dead set on trekking through the mountains to deliver the medicine--with or without his help--he has no choice but to accompany her. As they set off through the treacherous, snow-covered Rocky Mountains against all odds, the journey ahead will change their lives more than they could have known.

The Way of Belonging -...

Sarah E. Westfall, Lore Ferguson...

No one is a stranger to loneliness. Despite how social we are via text, chat, and notifications, we are far from being truly connected. We all want someone else to really see us and choose us for who we are. We want a place to finally fit in. But what if finding the right people or the right place is not the answer? 
 
 
 
From her community-building background, Sarah E. Westfall takes our longing to belong as an invitation to embrace and extend the deep love of God. After years contemplating how she fit in and trying to earn acceptance, she realized "belonging is not something to attain, but someone to become." Through narrative, research, Scripture, and spiritual practice, she teaches how belonging is a way of being—a posture of welcome in the spirit of the Father who extends his arms to those returning and those who don't yet know they've resisted his love. 
 
 
 
Whether you understand the perspective of the outsider in need of acceptance well or you're eager to include, the barriers to belonging can come down as Sarah gently guides us toward deep connection—a connection where our humanity draws us closer to people and envelops us in the heart of God. Embark with Sarah on this challenge that will awaken your empathy and affirm you with the truth of these words: "You are welcome."

Profound Truths from the Gospel...

Dr. Elden Daniel

This book concentrates on Jesus in the Gospel of John by looking at stories, lessons taught by Jesus, and what Jesus said about some topics. The author seeks to identify, state, and distill specific profound truths from these passages. Knowing the truth is preliminary to believing the truth which leads to doing the truth. As you read through the chapters and consider profound truths, watch for some keywords and concepts. Watch for commands to obey and examples of obedience. Watch for commands to love and examples of love. Watch for examples of commands to give glory and examples of glory given. Watch for gifts and promises given. The format is to glean profound truths from the passages. Sometimes stores are paraphrased. Other times a lesson is summarized. Sometimes interesting points are added. Some chapters are very short while other chapters are much longer. Each chapter is a stand-alone chapter. Each is structured to be a lesson. Jesus is the greatest teacher and we can learn from Him. You will find some duplication because the passages overlap from stories, lessons, and topics.Show me your ways, LORD, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me,for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long (Psalms 25:4-5).

Honesty: The Light of Truth -...

Esther Jameson

Honesty is often considered a fundamental virtue, a cornerstone upon which trust, respect, and meaningful relationships are built. At its core, honesty means being truthful with oneself and others. It is the practice of aligning our words, actions, and thoughts with the truth, regardless of how uncomfortable or inconvenient it may be. Without honesty, connections with others become shallow, and personal integrity is compromised. In this chapter, we explore the foundational aspects of honesty and its significance in both our personal lives and society.
To understand honesty fully, we must first examine what it entails. It is not merely about avoiding lies; it is about living in alignment with the truth, expressing ourselves openly, and being transparent in our actions. Honesty goes beyond just telling the truth when asked—it involves a deep commitment to truth in every aspect of our lives. This means that our words, our actions, and our thoughts should reflect what is genuinely real, without embellishment or deceit.
The importance of honesty cannot be overstated. When we are honest, we cultivate trust—both with others and within ourselves. Trust is the bedrock of any healthy relationship, whether personal or professional. Without honesty, trust erodes, leading to misunderstandings, broken relationships, and a sense of disconnection. Moreover, honesty fosters a sense of clarity and peace within ourselves. When we live truthfully, we are no longer burdened by the weight of deceit or the need to maintain false facades. We are free to be ourselves, unencumbered by the fear of being exposed or found out.
