  In the trying art of balancing investigations and love, a detective must determine his priorities when faced with dangerous circumstances that could threaten everything he holds dear. 
   
  As the leader of the Imposters, an elite private investigative firm, Lord Yates Fairfax has made an art of concealing his identity. But when his newest client, the beautiful Lady Alethia Barremore, is shot while leaving their meeting, he throws caution to the wind and rushes to her aid. Though Lady Alethia thought she was only looking for her missing former nanny, she has clearly stumbled upon something much more dangerous. 
   
  Lady Lavinia Hemming suspects her longtime friends hold more secrets than they're willing to admit, and when she stumbles upon the truth that they're the esteemed Imposters, she recruits herself into the firm. While she is happy for the distraction of an investigation, Lavinia's own family secrets continue to haunt her. And the one thing bringing laughter back into her life--her friendship with Yates--lands her squarely on the disagreeable side of her best friend: his sister. 
   
  Tormented by a past she doesn't dare voice aloud, Lady Alethia does what she can to help her handsome host, her new friends, and the investigators. But as clues lead them deeper into the dark side of society, Alethia, Yates, and Lavinia learn anew that the gentry isn't always noble . . . even as they fight to hold fast to their own honor. 
   
  "With characters believable and unique, and a pace that builds suspense as the story unfolds, each thread is so compelling I couldn't stop turning pages."--LORI BENTON, bestselling author on A Noble Scheme

  The Walter Brueggemann Library brings together the wide-ranging and enlivening thought of popular biblical scholar Walter Brueggemann over his storied career. Each volume collects previously published work on a biblical theme that has deeply informed Brueggemann's scholarship. 
   
   
   
  In Hope Restored, Brueggemann points us toward energizing hope for an alternative life of social equity and thriving. In Brueggemann's work, hope is not understood as easy optimism but as an honest facing of the unjust structures that human beings have created and a call to lean into the deep symbols of Scripture that imagine the alternative way of God, restoring solidarity and relationship that have been eroded by the violence of empire. According to the witness of Scripture, the divine presence is never settled into the arrangements and structures of the status quo. It provokes God's people to imagine beyond what they see and beyond their own selfish interests. Hope is always strongest among those who grieve and are willing to insistently critique the complacent, death-dealing social order that coddles the privileged and keeps its foot on the neck of those seen as "other" and to imagine new, whole-making realities on the horizon. 
   
   
   
  Questions for reflection are included at the end of each chapter, making this book ideal for individual or group study.

  🏆 2025 International Impact Book Awards Winner – Spirituality: Spiritual Insights – Awarded to Brian M. Woody for I Am Loving Awareness: A Mathematician's Spiritual Journey. 
  I Am Loving Awareness takes listeners on a profound journey through the nature of consciousness, the illusion of separation, and the deep interconnectedness of all life. Brian M. Woody blends spiritual teachings with advanced mathematics and quantum physics—drawing from Chaos Theory, quantum entanglement, Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, and quantum retrocausality—to reveal how compassion, mindfulness, and radical acceptance transcend ego and awaken the infinite self. Inspired by the mantra of Ram Dass, Woody offers a compelling vision of oneness that bridges science and spirituality. 
  Rooted in timeless wisdom from Zen Buddhism, the Tao Te Ching, and mystical traditions across Judaism, Islam, and Christianity—and informed by insights from Emmet Fox, Krishnamurti, Carl Jung, Wayne Dyer, Alan Watts, and others—this audiobook invites listeners into a space of self-realization, unity, and transformation. 
  In an era of fear and division, and uncertainty, I Am Loving Awareness delivers an antidote: a perceptual shift into the stillness and power of the present moment. Through practical tools, spiritual reflections, and deep metaphysical insights, Woody guides listeners toward releasing fear, embracing interconnection, and remembering the truth of their divine nature. 
  Brian M. Woody is a professional mathematician with over 25 years of experience, and holds dual master’s degrees in Pure and Applied Mathematics. A former university lecturer and U.S. Army Sniper, Woody specializes in advanced mathematics and consults across a wide range of mathematical and scientific fields. His work dissolves the illusory barriers between mathematics, physics, and spirituality.

  Although most people acknowledge that Jesus was a first-century Jew, interpreters of the Gospels often present him as opposed to Jewish law and customs—especially when considering his numerous encounters with the ritually impure. Matthew Thiessen corrects this popular misconception by placing Jesus within the Judaism of his day. Thiessen demonstrates that the Gospel writers depict Jesus opposing ritual impurity itself, not the Jewish ritual purity system or the Jewish law. This fresh interpretation of significant passages from the Gospels shows that throughout his life, Jesus destroys forces of death and impurity while upholding the Jewish law.

  Accessible Guide from 9Marks Equips Believers to Steward Their God-Given Authority
  In every position of power—from executives and world leaders to church elders and parents— lies the potential for life-giving leadership or destructive corruption. Driven by sinful pride or opportunism, many people abuse their God-given influence, harming the ones they're called to lead and contributing to an intense angst against authority. The answer to bad authority, however, is not no authority, but good authority—the kind that, according to Scripture, causes those under it to flourish.
   
  In this compelling guide from 9Marks, Jonathan Leeman shows that authority, done biblically, is not only good, but is essential to human flourishing. Through Scripture and many first-hand stories, he presents 5 attributes of positive authority and warns against sinfulness that corrupts leadership. Pointing to Jesus as the ultimate model of good authority, Leeman equips readers to pursue godly influence in their personal and professional lives. 
  
  - Applicable: Challenges readers to identify weaknesses in their own leadership style and offers 5 attributes of godly authority
  - Engaging: Filled with compelling stories that illustrate key points
  - A Great Resource for Pastors, Employers, Officers, and Parents: Helps readers understand how to practice godly authority in church, at home, and in the workplace
