  Based on true events of the Cristero War--one of the darkest times in Mexico's history. 
  1927: In the wake of the Revolution, Mexico's Government bans the Catholic Religion. Federal soldiers execute priests in front of their churches and massacre entire villages of people who continue to worship. The people rise in rebellion against their own government. The women form the Joan of Arc Women's Brigade, which grows to 25,000 women strong between Guadalajara, Mexico City, and all the surrounding villages. They go undercover to obtain information and smuggle ammunition and supplies to the men fighting. During the entire war, there is not a single defection, and the women are not discovered until the end... 
  Mariana has a hardworking but idyllic life on a citrus ranch in California. She is sheltered and protected by her family and older brother, Emilio. That is, until tragedy strikes. Emilio is murdered. To cover up the crime, a powerful man has Mariana's family of seven deported to Mexico, a place she barely remembers. Her family is dropped off at the Tijuana border and forced to enter Mexico. Prohibition north of the border has caused Tijuana to erupt with new saloons, casinos, and brothels, earning the nickname 'Satan's Playground.' Mariana's father heads to Guadalajara to find work, leaving the rest of the family behind in Tijuana. 
  Mariana's education and beauty give her many opportunities to help support her family, but she is overly naïve. When Mariana trusts the wrong person and disgraces herself, her mother ships her off to Guadalajara to find her father--right into the heart of the rebellion. Mariana has never spent a single night away from her family. Now, she is on a two-day train ride through the desert with nothing but a suitcase and an address. Will Mariana find her father before it is too late? Or will she end up dead along with the other 30,000 men, women, and children who died fighting for their religious freedom?

  Despite the dishonorable circumstances of his own birth, Adam Faulkner has never begrudged his half-brother Sebastian's legitimate position as the Viscount Willowthorpe. Having a title and everything that goes with it never mattered to Adam—until “everything” became the hand of Miss Eliza Southwick. Adam knows, as the stable manager at Hooke Manor, he shouldn’t hope to wed a well-born miss. After all, enchanting such a lady’s heart would take a true gentleman…something he is not. Eliza Southwick loves horses more than society and doesn't care a whit about status or titles. But her father has set his sights on the Viscount Willowthorpe for his future son-in-law and has brought his daughter to Hooke Manor in hopes of arranging a marriage contract. When a spark first kindled during a chance meeting between Eliza and Adam grows stronger, she doesn’t dare tell her father how she feels. He will disown her entirely if she fails to do his will, and the cost of following her heart has never seemed higher. This delightful novella is the first in Christy Award-winning author Robin Lee Hatcher's The British Are Coming historical-romance series.

  2 Baruch, also known as the Syriac Apocalypse of Baruch, is a profound piece of Jewish literature written following the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 AD. Attributed to Baruch ben Neriah, the scribe of the Prophet Jeremiah, this text offers a window into the spiritual and existential crises of its time. 
  Through a series of divine revelations and apocalyptic visions, 2 Baruch confronts the profound grief and disarray experienced by the Jewish people in the wake of Jerusalem's fall. It explores why suffering befalls the righteous and how justice might ultimately be realized. 
  Through its apocalyptic visions, 2 Baruch contemplates the ultimate fate of the righteous and the wicked, the resurrection of the dead, and the coming of a new age heralded by the Messiah.

  As we make our way through life, we find ourselves in times of transition where we need to reassess who we are and what we do. 
   
   
   
  Living well doesn't happen automatically for followers of Christ—it happens when we have planned ahead by reviewing and recalibrating our lives on a regular basis, and when we transition from one stage of life to the next. Times of transition, especially in midlife or later life, are ideal moments for recalibrating our priorities and habits. 
   
   
   
   
  Ken Boa and Jenny Abel give us the perspective and practical tools needed to evaluate our God-given gifts, talents, skills, wisdom, knowledge, resources, and opportunities so we can use them to the full extent God desires. It involves an intentional recalibration and envisioning of one's life based on God's universal and unique purposes for each person as we move from the demands of our careers into a deeper sense of calling. This eternal perspective allows us to live meaningfully now and into the future so that the best is yet to come.
