    Uncovering The Mystery of Your Soul

    I was talking to someone about eternity one day, and they asked me where is the soul located and what does it look like. I did not have an immediate answer for them. I asked that person if they could give me a few days to read and research and get back with them. I began a search that would last over seven years; during those seven years, of asking professors, teachers, preachers and just about anyone that would have a conversation with me about the soul and eternity. Initially I was frustrated and  came short of the real answers. As I continued to read, write, pray and ask questions to people and to God. I finally had a few revolutionary breakthroughs. However the real answers came at the expense of painful and painstaking experiences. One will find when they are seeking something that is larger than themselves,  something that could help not only yourself but others in the race we call the human race, that wisdom will only come at a cost. Many times the cost is higher than we are willing to pay had we known what we were getting ourselves into. I hope and pray that this expose' about the soul will enlighten, encourage and embolden your life's journey. All humans have an eternal soul that is subject to the laws of eternity. I hope this books helps guide your eternal walk toward good and goodness.

    PERFECTION NOT REQUIRED  
    Many of us believe that we aren’t good enough to meet other people’s expectations. Maybe you can’t wrap words around why, but lurking beneath the surface of the carefully curated façade you present in public, it’s there. Being missed and marginalized by others moves us to assume we’re not quite good enough for God either. 
    The great news woven throughout the Gospel according to Luke is that perfection is not a prerequisite for a deep and personal relationship with Jesus. In fact, this riveting account reveals that Jesus is especially fond of ragamuffins in need of a safe place to lean in and linger! Join Lisa Harper in this audio Bible study of a literary masterpiece that doesn’t celebrate the elite, but embraces the outliers, outcasts, and overlooked! 
    Sessions and Run Times:Outliers, Outcasts, and the Outrageous Mercy of God (26:00)Worship in the Waiting (25:00)Uphill Glory (29:00)Gut-Level Compassion (27:00)  The Tender Heart of Obedience (32:00)A Beautiful Unbending (31:00)A Most Radical Restoration (31:00)A Tale of Two Rooms (31:00) 
    The Audio Bible Studies series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, this audio Bible study includes high-quality, live audio sessions from the author that cover important Bible-based topics. These sessions will reflect the ambiance of the unique recording locations, immersing the listener into the teaching. While not required for the audio experience, these studies are designed to partner with the coordinating study guide, sold separately.

    Retold in award-winning writer Kamla K. Kapur’s elegant, flowing language, Rumi’s tales of wisdom and humanity are given fresh life in this modern masterpiece. 
    Rumi: Tales of the Spirit is a sweet, comforting, and at times, fiery guide to nourishing the spirit. In a hopeful but pragmatic tone, timeless storyteller Rumi and award-winning author and playwright Kamla Kapur guide us through the trials of life and teach us to embrace suffering, to pray even when it feels hopeless, and ultimately, to surrender to the cosmic will. In twelve fresh and powerful tales of wisdom, we learn to trust in ourselves and in the universe, experience joy in good times and bad, and find the strength to persevere through life’s struggles. 
    Kapur has been studying Rumi for twenty years. Through her detailed analysis of his life and work and her own understanding of the human condition and the present-day literary scene, Kapur brings new life to these centuries-old stories while staying true to their roots in Rumi’s time and place. These retellings convey Rumi’s deep insight on the human condition and bring to light the vast and subtle meanings of his stories that are often lost in translation. Through this work, we see that people around the world and across time have always been connected by the hopes, dreams, and inner struggles that make up the human experience. 
    Personal, poignant, and woven with fierce passion for life and the divine, Rumi: Tales of the Spirit will leave you with heart-wrenching gratitude for life’s trials and gifts.

    Life has its ups and downs, and it can feel like we're always in the middle of a transition. 
     
     
     
    Whether it's a painful end or a joyful beginning—or even an uncertain middle—theologian and minister Amy Davis Abdallah has found something that helps: rituals. In Meaning in the Moment, she shows why we need rituals to help survive and even thrive through various seasons of life. 
     
     
     
    Starting with the foundation that rituals are a core, and underexplored, part of Christian practice, Davis Abdallah draws from theology, psychology, and personal experiences in creating rituals for herself and others. She offers practical guidance for listeners to create their own meaningful rituals, including three types requiring varying levels of planning and participation: right now, with friends, and at church. 
     
     
     
    Listeners will emerge with fresh ways to bring their faith to life for themselves, their families, and their church communities—and ready to experience the transformative power of rituals. The book includes a foreword by W. David O. Taylor.

    Everyone in Wilbeth Green has something to hide, but she’s about to uncover their secrets. 
     
    1956: In a quiet English village, the smoldering ruins of Rosemont Abbey have set the residents’ tongues wagging, and everyone is quick to accuse troublemaker Paul Everly of the crime of arson. Paul has vanished without a trace, leaving only his plucky twin sister, Louisa, certain of his innocence. Fueling her conviction is an inexplicable connection—she felt her twin’s death an hour before the abbey went up in flames. 
     
    Armed with nothing but her wit and her keen sense of intuition, Louisa embarks on her own investigation, challenging the dubious townspeople and the disdain of her aunt and uncle. Even Inspector Malcolm Sinclair, once Paul’s closest friend, warns Louisa to abandon her pursuit. But Louisa is determined to solve a murder no one else believes was committed, even if it means unraveling secrets that could shake Wilbeth Green to its core. 
     
    “An English murder mystery set in the 1950s, plus a friends (and sometimes enemies)-to-more romance? Naomi Stephens is an author to watch!”—Julie Klassen, bestselling author
