Book excerpt: Will she take him up on his offer to be her dating coach, or is having her crush help her find a future husband a little too awkward? Tally Kerr has always been shy. And not just a little bashful. She’s the kind of shy that paralyzes her when someone she doesn’t know speaks to her. The kind that causes panic attacks when she has to go in public. Thanks to her social anxiety, she’s never even been on a date, which puts a huge damper on her dream of having a family someday. Until she meets Jake Mills, a recent divorcé with three young daughters, who hires her to be their nanny. Being around Jake’s girls only strengthens her desire for children of her own. And being around their handsome, charming, much-older-than-her father gives her feelings she probably shouldn’t be feeling. After learning of her nonexistent dating life, Jake volunteers to coach her on how to get past her shyness and meet new people. But is there more to his offer than meets the eye? The Courtship Coach is a heartwarming romantic comedy with loads of small-town charm, flirty banter, an age gap, adorable kids, a fun cast of friends and townsfolk, swoon-worthy kisses, and a happily ever after, of course.

Download or read book Patriarchal Lineages in 21st Century Christian Courtship written by Elizabeth L. Shively and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-10 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing from a study of courtship media and ethnographic work at purity retreats and home-school conventions across the Midwest, this is the first inquiry into modern Christian courtship, an alternative to dating that asks young people to avoid both romance and sex until they are ready to be married. Bridging sociological and historical studies of American Christianity with youth and girlhood studies literatures, Elizabeth Shively finds that the courtship system is designed to shore up the patriarchal nuclear family structure at the center of conservative Christianity and ensure predictability in the face of emerging adulthood: single young women work to embody ideals of “luminous femininity” and model themselves after archetypes such as the “Proverbs 31 woman,” the “stay-at-home-daughter,” and the “mission-minded girl,” and courting couples strive to “guard their hearts” against premature emotional intimacy. Nonetheless, participants report that courtship, like other relationships, inevitably carries an element of risk, and it ultimately fails to offer a substantial challenge to the to the sexist realities of youth dating culture.

Download or read book Fact and Faith written by David L. Bartlett and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-08-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How shall we interpret the stories of miracles, particularly the resurrection, in this secular age? The author calls us to look beyond the fact of a miracle to faith in what the miracle means. To do this, he tells us, we must first of all try to understand what actually happened in history. However, he warns us that merely knowing what happened will not necessarily lead to vital Christian faith. In developing his theme, the author discusses the way in which each of the Four Gospels presents miracles, the meaning of exorcism in the New Testament and today, and the significance of the resurrection accounts. Throughout, the author suggests significant themes for preaching.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a lady goes looking for her missing brother, the adventure leads to dangerous desire in this Regency romance by the New York Times bestselling author. Miss Roma Allendyle detested behaving like a proper lady, and all the patronizing nonsense that came along with it. After all, she could outride and outshoot any gentleman. When her brother, an agent of the Crown, suddenly vanishes, she sees no reason not to go looking for him herself—even if doing so requires her to disguise herself as a grubby lad. Roma expects to face challenges, but not to be targeted by a mysterious ambush. Nor did she expect to be rescued by the darkly handsome Lord Giles Carlton, the Season’s prime catch. Though she is grateful to be alive, Roma is incensed by Giles’s arrogance—especially when he insists on helping with her search. But there is yet another surprise in store. For in Giles, Roma just may find a will and passion to match her own—and an outlandish ploy that could lead to true love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eight setups. Eight awkward dates. Eight things God tried to teach her along the way. (Some of which she’s still trying to figure out.) Stephanie Rische was starting to feel invisible. All around her, her friends were getting married, and she found herself decidedly alone. Stephanie couldn’t help but wonder if there was something broken in her—was she not pretty enough? Not fun enough? Not dateable enough (whatever that meant)? So she started praying in earnest for God to bring the right man into her life. And instead, He brought her matchmakers. Eight of them, to be precise. Beloved blogger Stephanie Rische debuts with this charming, vulnerable, and (who are we kidding?) often mortifying true story of a girl who tried really hard to find someone to fall in love with—even when she mostly just ended up falling flat on her face. But amid the most cringeworthy setups and awkward encounters, Stephanie found God’s grace and love meeting her there in ways she never could have imagined—once she opened her eyes to see.

Book excerpt: A fan favorite from New York Times bestselling author Candace Camp, originally published in 2009. Lady Francesca Haughston has given up on romance for herself, finding passion instead in making desirable matches for others. So it seems only fair, when she learns she’d been deceived into breaking her own long-ago engagement to Sinclair, Duke of Rochford, that she now help him find the perfect wife. Of course, Francesca is certain any spark of passion between them has long since died—her own treatment of him saw to that. The way Sinclair gazes at her…well, that’s merely practice for when a younger, more suitable woman catches his eye. But soon Francesca finds his lessons in love scandalously irresistible—and a temptation that could endanger them both.
