  "A Letter to the Inmate is a motivational tool that highlights the importance of self-worth and making a positive impact on a life worth living. It helps the inmate to rediscover who he is and challenges him to utilize his skills to their fullest potential. After reading this book I am certain you too will recognize the author's sincerity and helpfulness."-Rev. Herman Boyer Jr., Associate Minister "Reads like a conversation between brothers and or friends. The struggle is for the receiver to heed the messages, do a U-Turn, and go in the direction of truth and righteousness rather than the path of wrong and sin. Great advice. A motivational memoir on personal responsibility."- Carl Cain, Deputy Chief of Police "This "letter" is written from the heart of someone who TRULY cares about and can relate to the pains and struggles of incarceration. The words of wisdom are encouraging and comforting, without condemnation. I recommend this "letter" as a tool for discussion among inmates. It can be a welcomed support."- Dr. Tina Schultz, Prep School Administrator "We all have a story, a beginning, and an end. We can choose what the middle looks like. This is a must-read and buy."- Niagara County 4th District Legislator Owen Steed "Most powerful message at the most desperate times... encouraging mindset. I applaud you Ren Feagin. I hope and pray for each one of you. That what you find in this book can be your guide through the darkness and see the light that shines upon the star you truly are in this lifetime." - Rob Parmer, Prep School Safety Officer

  The Spiritual Significance of Time 
   
  Many Christians live a faith that is "nowhen." They are disconnected from the past or imagine they are somehow "above" the flux of history, as if every generation starts with a clean state. They lack an awareness of time and the effects of history--both personal and collective--and thus are naive about current issues, prone to nostalgia, or fixated on the end times and other doomsday versions of the future. 
   
  Popular speaker and award-winning author James K. A. Smith explains that we must reckon with the past in order to discern the present and have hope for the future. Integrating popular culture, biblical exposition, and meditation, he helps us develop a sense of "temporal awareness" that is attuned to the texture of history, the vicissitudes of life, and the tempo of the Spirit. 
   
  Smith shows that awakening to the spiritual significance of time is crucial for orienting faith in the twenty-first century. It allows us to become indebted to the past, oriented toward the future, and faithful in the present. 
   
  ★ "This incisive and eloquent volume will expand readers' minds."--Publishers Weekly starred review  
   
  "A beautifully written book. . . . [Smith] offers a good, pastoral word to Christians today."--Christian Century

  Read by the author. 
  Tired of trying to be enough? The truth is you were never meant to be, no matter what culture might tell you. 
  Christian women today are bombarded with confusing messaging–they are supposed to do and be it all but also die to themselves. They are supposed to believe that women can do anything and also surrender everything to God. Adding to that pressure, many women feel stuck in their current reality–spinning on the hamster wheel of life. They scroll past images that tell them everyone else has it together and is experiencing a purpose-filled, adventurous, fun, loving, and God-honoring life. Overwhelmed and at a loss, most women go one of two places: defeat or self-help empowerment, even Christian self-help. 
  In Becky Kiser's But God Can, women realize this truth: on their own, she was never meant to be enough—that is the gospel message, that is why Jesus came. But God Can get her unstuck and find a purpose she has never known! She will identify the lies she's internalized, replace those with new truths, and find freedom through realistic, practical, and life-changing strategies. 
  Becky Kiser will use her foundation as a Bible teacher and unique skills as a life coach to take women on a journey tofind freedom from lies as she changes how she thinks,identify what God says is actually true,remember that God is more than capable of doing anything,discover how He has uniquely created her, andpropel her into the abundant life of deep purpose. 
    
  But God Can will show you that you don't have to be enough because God is more than enough! On your own, you can't, but God totally can! 
  Processing questions and challenges can be found in the audiobook companion PDF download.

  In this powerful, redemptive true story, a young man living on the edge of survival is transformed into a healing presence in the lives of all he touches. 
   
  At age ten, Peter Mutabazi ran away from home. For five years he survived on the streets of Kampala, Uganda, a city of 1.5 million, until one man saw potential in him. This man not only supported Peter through school but forever altered Peter's outlook in every possible way.  
   
  Since then, Peter's turnaround story has been remarkable. He served as a relief coordinator during the Rwandan genocide, worked for the International Committee of the Red Cross during the Sudan conflict, emigrated to the United States, fostered countless children, and became a single adoptive parent. He speaks seven languages and has traveled to more than one hundred countries as an international advocate for vulnerable children.

  Does a day without difficult news seem out of reach? Does this world seem topsy-turvy at best, toxic at worst? Max Lucado’s sound biblical insights and signature storytelling provide strength and encouragement amid the current chaos and exhaustion. 
  In Unbreakable Courage, today's headlines and the truth of Scripture intersect in compelling fashion. Max offers a fresh look at the story of Elijah the prophet, showing readers how they can stand strong day by day in the face of turbulent times, regardless of the challenging circumstances they may face.  
  In today’s world, we see echoes of those unsettled, contentious times Elijah endured. Radical departures from long-held truths are taking center stage. Change is evident everywhere we look—in homes, churches, schools, government, and the workplace. We often feel as if we’re swimming upstream in a downstream world. Yet the story of Elijah urges us to have hope in the one true living God. Elijah’s unswerving belief fueled his courage, and it will do the same for us.  
  Max provides a field manual on how to have strong faith during a time of spiritual drought, anxiety, and exhaustion. He invites us to lean in and let Elijah’s story remind us towait for God in solitude and silence,pray impossible prayers,live with an expectation of divine disruption,turn to God during emotional lows, andunderstand the spiritual battles we fight. 
    
  Elijah’s story will help calm readers’ fears and guide their steps. Faith in our unchanging God instills a capacity for living a renewed life of courage. With God’s help and following Elijah’s inspiring example, readers will discover strength to face the challenges of this life and the courage to make a difference.
