Say Yes to Love by Ajme Williams  

Say Yes to Love by Ajme Williams

I (fake) married a man who’s (real) married to his job.
That man is also my boss.

This whole thing was no mistake.
Ryan thought it’d be fun to go to Europe and get hitched.
Why?
Because my charm helped him secure a deal.
It was all fun and games until we were only walking hand-in-hand on the streets of Europe.
Until it was just the two of us.
But Ryan broke more than just the one rule which says that we can’t be together.
He got me pregnant.

Joy Fueled: Catalyzing a Revolution of Joyful Communities by John C White, Toni M Daniels, Dr Kent Smith  

About Joy Fueled: Catalyzing a Revolution of Joyful Communities by John C White, Toni M Daniels, Dr Kent Smith

Fear-fed or Joy Fueled? Ready for a change?

“Ground-breaking,” “Revolutionary,” “Refreshing and Crucial.” Thought leaders from around the world are talking about the impact this book is having on their own lives and work.

These three authors bring together their decades of experience as pastors, missionary trainers, and consultants in one voice. The result is proving to be transformational worldwide. To celebrate the audio edition, Joy Fueled Kindle version will be FREE Dec 13th, 14th and 15!

Are you tired of being spiritually overfed yet under-nourished? Are you worn out by all the things you “should” be doing? Are you burned out on religion and wanting to bring more connection and participation to conventional church? Or, are you one of the 65 million people in the United States alone who are “Done” with church as they know it searching for how to better engage as an organic church, simple church, or house church? Do you want to accept Jesus’ invitation to “get away with him and recover your life”?

This revolutionary and yet practical book addresses the causes of burnout many Christians face and empowers them to join God in a joy-fueled movement of Jesus!

Vibrancy and joy are what Christians are promised. Yet, many have experienced the opposite: a guilt-ridden, duty-based, judgemental culture that has left them still searching for the life Jesus promised.

Perhaps you find yourself:
Trying to effect true life change, but feeling discouraged, tired, overwhelmed, and losing hope?
Done with investing your life in a system that is not producing sustainable transformation in yourself or those you serve?
Leaving conventional church altogether feeling discouraged, lonely, hurt, frustrated or apathetic?
Searching for how to better engage as an organic church, simple church, or house church?

After more than 10 years of coaching individuals, families and communities in the joy-fueled way described in these pages, the authors have seen a spontaneous, world-wide movement spring up from six continents, bridging the divides of race, class, culture, privilege and politics. It has been their delight to witness this movement emerging. It is now their joy to share what they have learned:

What is joy and why it is a superior fuel for motivation
The harmful effects of using substitute “fuels” that leave us discouraged and burned out
How you can nurture joy in yourself and your church (whatever form that might take)
How mission can be a spontaneous explosion of joy

In Joy Fueled, you will discover three practices that inspire hope to build the joy necessary to go the distance, foster mature relationships with others and with God, and overflow into a life of mission.

What is stopping you from reclaiming joy as your primary motivation and joining God in catalyzing a self-propagating revolution of joy?

Kurtz and Barent Mystery Series: Books 4-6 by Robert I. Katz  

About Kurtz and Barent Mystery Series: Books 4-6 by Robert I. Katz

Books 4 through 6 in the Kurtz and Barent mystery series, now available in one convenient volume! Surgeon Richard Kurtz and police detective Lew Barent, seemingly so different, have a lot in common. Fate, and murder, have brought the two men together. They don’t pull their punches. They never give up. They both have an obsessive need to see justice done and neither runs from a fight.

In The Chairmen: The Chairman of Cardiac Surgery is about to retire. The Chairman of Anesthesiology is making himself so obnoxious that his department is in open revolt and the Chairman of Obstetrics and Gynecology is being stalked by a lunatic. As petty harassment escalates into vandalism and then assault, the College of Medicine finds itself under siege, and Kurtz, Barent and Moran are once again thrown into the center of the mayhem.

In Brighton Beach: Kurtz’ most recent patient, an undercover cop, has had his brain scrambled by a sniper’s bullet. Another patient is dying because an incompetent colleague made one mistake too many. A third patient got hit by a car after OD’ing on a new, unknown narcotic, and Steven Hayward and his wife, both drug dealers, were found dead in bed with their detached heads propped up on the kitchen counter. How does the Russian mob fit into things? Who is doing what to whom? Kurtz can’t resist asking questions, but the wrong questions asked of the wrong people could get him killed.

In If a Tree Falls: Richard Kurtz was looking forward to spending a few weeks in the West Virginia mountains, covering for another surgeon. It should have been a pleasant break from his busy New York practice, giving Kurtz and Lenore a good excuse to return home to the family farm and reconnect with his father and his father’s new family. And then Lenore stumbles on the skull of a young girl at the bottom of a creek and fifteen dead bodies are discovered in a shallow grave.

About “THE PROPHET” The Extraordinary Life of Joseph Jeremiah Danielson

Joseph Jeremiah Danielson, grew up in an ordinary Christian home in Schenectady, New York. At an early age Joseph Jeremiah could spot a phony money hungry Televangelist right away. Joseph went to Syracuse University to study, Epidemiology/Virology, where he met his wife Carrie May. They married after graduating and they both continued their education at John Hopkins University, where he also commuted to and from work for the Washington DC branch of the CDC. Joseph became very disgruntled at how Christianity was being betrayed by Televangelist, with their lavish lifestyles, buying multimillion dollar jets and living in mansions and buying expensive cars. So, he prayed and asked God why he was so personally disturbed by what he was seeing. That night, Joseph Jeremiah had a dream, and in that dream, an Angel appeared to him and explained what Joseph was so upset about, and God had a job for him to do, he was to be a voice for God in these pernicious deceitful times, and set straight the crooked paths that had been trodden by these greedy Televangelist that are using God’s word to line their pockets. God uses Joseph Jeremiah Danielson in a way that hasn’t been seen since the days of Moses, Elijah, and the Lord Jesus Christ, with signs and wonders and death and destruction to those that have used God’s word for their own personal gain. This is a fearless, frightful terrifying story, that is a must read, that will make today’s Televangelist red hot with hatred of the words penned on the pages of “THE PROPHET”. Either you’ll like this fictional portrayal or you’ll hate it, depending on your views. One thing for sure, this book, holds back nothing, in telling the story of the ills of modern day Christianity. Contains Explicit language, for adults only.
