Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a prodigal child travels a trail to come to know again a love that makes no sense, God’s love, this story of a mother’s love reflects an even greater love—God’s love for all. These lessons enliven a faith in a sovereign Savior, Jesus Christ, who loves the world, and orchestrates life even when we can’t see His hand answering our prayers, sometimes responding to our petitions with a yes, other times saying, no, or not now, and often answering not how we think! Lessons from Momsense tells a make-you-laugh, make-you-cry story of a Baby Boomer mother and her prodigal child and that youthful rebellious generation, reminding us though momsense is universal, moms and mothering come in many forms. These lessons also include a bit of old as dirt grandmother momsense, too. Sharing stories that demonstrate God’s transforming love, and the power of prayer, these narratives of hope encourage anyone of any generation to forgive, shun hate and come to know the love and truth that changes hearts and lives—forever.

Book excerpt: Whether chosen and celebrated--like going off to college or welcoming your first baby--or unexpected and anxiety-inducing--like losing a job or grappling with a broken trust--all change brings stress. Kristen Strong knows about change--especially the kind you didn't choose or expect. What she's fought hard to learn over the years is that change is not something to be feared but something to be received as a blessing from a God who, more often than not, works through change, not in spite of it. Strong has learned to see change not as a grievance but as a grace. In this hope-filled book, she shows women how when we follow God's will, we receive blessings of contentment, purpose, and renewed strength. She encourages women to see change not as the end of their story but as the scenery for this part of life's journey. And she offers practical advice for coping with change in every part of life. Anyone who has struggled to adjust to life's transitions will welcome this warm and personal perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widows and Orphans is a story for readers of all ages. Protagonist Crosby Hoggard, a literary cousin of Tom Sawyer, has trouble at Andrew Johnson Junior High School in Monte Vista, California. Big trouble for a twelve-year-old. He's been labeled "difficult" by school officials. And whenever his class reads a story, Crosby""to the teacher's chagrin""turns into a junior psychologist, analyzing the dubious details of the superficial plots and of the dangerously innocent lives of the characters. Crosby is also the daily target of the pimply-faced playground bully, Clyde Winston, who always sits victoriously on his victims. But all is not bleak, for on his way home after school one hot day in June, Crosby comes to a sudden, personal decision about his life, which he shares with his classmate and truest friend, Maria Lopez. What Crosby doesn't know is that his resolution will change him in ways he never anticipated, not only at school, but also at home and church. What happened in Crosby's life three years ago that set him on an intense and voracious reading jag? Why is it that the people around Crosby seem to know something about his life that Crosby himself refuses to think about? In the story, a series of remarkable circumstances brings Crosby face to face with the secret of his own past, and he is confronted with his destiny, which is linked to a visiting preacher, an old man who had an encounter with him three years ago. And that encounter is now about to catch up to Crosby for an unexpected, jolting climax.

Book excerpt: From potty-training expert and social worker Jamie Glowacki, who’s already helped over half a million families successfully toilet train their preschoolers, comes a newly revised and updated guide that’s “straight-up, parent-tested, and funny to boot” (Amber Dusick, author of Parenting: Illustrated with Crappy Pictures).

Her six-step, proven process to get your toddler out of diapers and onto the toilet has already worked for tens of thousands of kids and their parents.

If you’ve ever said to yourself: -How do I know if my kid is ready? -Why won’t my child poop in the potty? -How do I avoid “potty power struggles”? -How can I get their daycare provider on board? -My kid was doing so well—why is he regressing? -And what about nighttime?! Oh Crap! Potty Training can solve all of these (and other) common issues. This isn’t theory, you’re not bribing with candy, and there are no gimmicks.
