Book excerpt: "Nana Martin and her divorced, thirty-something daughter, Jane, and teenage granddaughters, Sarah and Rachel, live in New Hope, a friendly, innocent small town caught up in the whirlwinds of change and dislocation." "Nana is feisty, smart, and determined. Troubled by her failure to pass on vital life lessons to Jane, she finds an unexpected ally in George. George is a laptop, a retirement gift to Nana. Like many of her generation, Nana is wary of the computers, camera phones, and iPods surrounding her - and George in particular. George speaks, has a distinct personality, and seems to anticipate Nana's thoughts and concerns." "Distrust gives way to reliance and hope when Nana encounters an insidious predator who stalks the town's most vulnerable residents, attempting to destroy the fabric of the community." "In A Purpose Under Heaven, Derek Smith has woven an allegory that explores how technology, like Prometheus's gift of fire, may be used for good or ill. And finally, he depicts God's boundless love for mankind, the fierce and vital bonds among families, and the spiritual foundation shared by an interdependent community."--BOOK JACKET.

Recovering from a loss is difficult, and each individual reacts differently, but The Way Back From Loss provides solace in knowing you are not alone. Sixty days with these messages of hope and inspiration, and you will be well on your way to a brighter tomorrow.

Book excerpt: After receiving several messages from God that she was destined to make this journey, a woman travels to Kenya, Africa, on a mission trip and spends much of the two weeks feeling lost and alone. One question keeps resonating through her head, "Why am I here?" One Woman's Trip to Africa - My Story In August 2006, I had the opportunity to fulfill a life-long dream by going on a mission trip to a third-world country. I traveled with fourteen other missionaries to Kenya as part of the last Life Missions team to travel to Africa. Our goal was to educate the Kenyans about disease prevention and to share the word of Christ. A lofty goal and one which seemed far from my grasp. Join me on my fascinating journey to Africa and back and learn how I discovered a God I never knew before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's the 1560s and Antinous Bellori, a boy of eleven, is exploring the woods above his home in the north Italian mountains when night falls. Suddenly fearful, the boy wanders blindly through the trees, sensing danger at every turn, until he comes, unseen, upon a clearing in which there stand two glowing beings, one carrying a spear, the other a flaming torch: angels ... This event is decisive in Bellori's life, just as encounters with angels have been for others throughout history. Beginning in the Garden of Eden and soaring right through to the present day, we revisit key moments when men have come face to face with these intermediaries of the divine: Cain and Abel cultivating their differences murderously; Lot's shame in Sodom; Noah's isolation before the Flood; Ezekiel tied to his bed, prophesying fiercely; and the death of Christ. Alighting upon these dramatic scenes - from the Bible and beyond - Knausgaard's imagination takes flight: the result is a dazzling display of storytelling at its majestic, spellbinding best.
