Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four lonely children, three broken homes, and two willing people all collide for one divine purpose. In this fourth installment of the Faith Journey series, all the past hardships written about in the first, second, and third books begin to take on a new perspective as it suddenly becomes very evident that those horrific events from Robin's and Tim's past--the uncertainty that came from their various life-threatening health challenges, the excruciating pain felt from betrayal and rejection throughout each of their divorces, the loneliness that followed, and all the overt demonic spiritual attacks--were all divinely permitted for a very important purpose that would prove useful in bringing up their four adopted children. Everything comes full circle as Robin realizes that the deep, dark adversity allowed in her past was part of the divine plan to prepare her for the most important task God was calling her and Tim to do. All the rejection, abandonment, anger, and fear they had experienced proved to be useful tools as she and Tim attempt to empathize and understand the heavy weight of deep-rooted hurt and trauma that their children lived with. God uses their past failures and pain to shed light on ways to help them form meaningful bonds with their adopted children; the sibling group consisting of four lost souls that would result in a loving family unit for this new family created by God out of six rejects. "We're all just a bunch of rejects living under one roof. It's no wonder that God can lift us to such heights, we all came from the pit." (Robin D. Holstein)

Book excerpt: In this powerful and personal reflection, a New York Times bestseller, President Jimmy Carter contemplates how faith has sustained him in happiness and disappointment and considers how we may find it in our own lives. All his life, President Jimmy Carter has been a courageous exemplar of faith. Now he shares the lessons he learned. He writes, “The issue of faith arises in almost every area of human existence, so it is important to understand its multiple meanings. In this book, my primary goal is to explore the broader meaning of faith, its far-reaching effect on our lives, and its relationship to past, present, and future events in America and around the world. The religious aspects of faith are also covered, since this is how the word is most often used, and I have included a description of the ways my faith has guided and sustained me, as well as how it has challenged and driven me to seek a closer and better relationship with people and with God.” Quoting eminent Protestant theologians, in Faith President Carter describes his belief in religious freedom, moral politics, and the place of prayer in his daily life. He examines faith’s many meanings, he describes how to accept it, live it, how to doubt and find faith again. This is a serious and moving reflection from one of America’s most admired and respected citizens.

Response chapters offer respectful critiques. Contributors include Wilbur Ellsworth (Eastern Orthodoxy), with a response by Craig Blaising; Francis J.

Book excerpt: Calvin Baxter was living his dream. Annie was the perfect wife, and Taylor was his beautiful infant daughter. He loved his job as the pastor of a thriving community church in Archdale, a typical small North Carolina town where no secrets were ever kept. It didn't matter because Cal and Annie had no secrets to keep. Until on a warm Spring afternoon when Annie and Taylor died in a tragic accident. It was Cal's fault. How could a loving God allow such a tragedy to happen? Relentless anger festered into deep resentment. Self-loathing eventually drove Cal to the edge of suicide, but he never could muster the courage to end it all. Cal declared a ruthless, secret war that raged for ten grueling years. The terrible battles gradually destroyed his faith. It was too late when his congregation discovered their pastor harbored a dark secret that would force Tabernacle Baptist Church to close its doors forever. On the Sunday Cal preached his final sermon, he announced he was stepping away from the ministry. He had no idea what to do with the rest of his life, or where to do it. All that mattered, it had to be far away from Archdale. Cal drove out of town in a very special vehicle named for Annie. He had to make one final stop, to visit Gabby, his mother-in-law, who had long since forgiven Cal for Annie's and Taylor's deaths. Even though Gabby knew it was a waste of time, she encouraged Cal to forgive himself. When they hugged good-bye both Cal and Gabby were certain they would never see each other again. Cal had no destination in mind as he turned south on Highway 109, toward a sparsely settled section of the state. Ahead were clear skies, fresh air and winding country roads. There were no more sermons to prepare. No more prayer requests he doubted would even be heard, let alone answered. He had left behind God, religion and all false pretense of belief. Confident he had begun a brand new chapter in his life, Cal was about to discover he had actually entered a challenging odyssey that would rock him to his very core. He may have lost his faith, but Evil wasn't about to cut him any slack. Cal only thought he had lost it all, until he actually lost it all. As his unexpected journey unfolds, Cal is forced to accept that the man he used to be no longer exists. He is still inside the same body, but is a man he must learn to accept and become. As Cal struggles with his new identity, he may have stepped on the path that returns him to the Faith he abandoned in Archdale.

Book excerpt: There is no pit deep enough where God cannot reach you, snatch you out, plant your feet back on solid ground, and redirect your steps back into His loving care Robin thought there was such a pit and that she had certainly found it. Falling head first to the bottom of the pit of sin, driven by the deep wounds of betrayal and her sudden onset of rebellion, she thought she had fallen far past the grips of her Heavenly Father. Riding bulls and battling a brain tumor paled in comparison to the upcoming battles Robin would soon face while in the pit. Those trials did little to prepare her for the evasive, subtle enemy awaiting her; lurking in the dark shadows of her deep despair, planning her demise and threatening to destroy her testimony, her future, and even her life. The strength she would need to face the battles ahead were no match for what little strength she had on her own. It would be; not by her own might or power, but only through the grace of God, His unfailing love and mercy, and the power of the sweet Holy Spirit working through her that she could face, endure, and overcome the battles that lie ahead and the enemy that was determined to destroy her. Tim spends his lonely days abiding in the supernatural love and care of Almighty God while it took chastening through more harsh circumstances for God to get Robin to turn away from her prodigal living and back to Him. God's unfailing love and relentless pursuit of one of His own finally wins out in the end, proving that not even the most heinous acts that any of His children can commit can thrust them outside of His loving reach and tender mercies. Only then could God unite the two broken hearts for His divine plan.
