What The River Keeps
$18.99Hildy Nybo is a successful biologist, her study of the Pacific Northwest’s wild fish both a passion and a career. But behind her professional brilliance, Hildy’s reclusive private life reflects a childhood fraught with uncertainty. Despite her father’s love and her mother’s sympathy, she grew up constantly losing even her most cherished belongings, unable to recall where she misplaced them. Haunted by the confusion of those early years, she now records her life in detailed diaries and clings tightly to memory-prompting keepsakes.
Then her mother’s health fails, and Hildy accepts a job near her childhood home, joining a team of scientists who will help restore her beloved Elwha River after the demolition of two century-old dams. There Hildy settles into one of the cabins on her family’s rustic resort–a place she both loves and dreads, for reasons she can’t fully explain.
When local artist Miranda Rimmer rents an adjacent cabin for her pottery studio, Hildy shrinks from such a close neighbor. But then Miranda’s carpenter brother, Luke, shows up to help with construction and captures Hildy’s attention. Now a few years beyond a tragedy that brought him to his knees, Luke recognizes a kindred soul in Hildy, and they build a relationship that dismantles the walls Hildy’s built to keep people out. As troubling pieces of the past surface, Hildy dares to wonder if she can banish the shadows that have burdened her and follow her river’s course to freedom.

Last Light Over Galveston
$18.99Galveston, Texas. September 1900.
Only months ago, Kathleen McDaniel returned from finishing school in Switzerland to her family home in New York’s Hudson Valley with a future of promise and privilege set before her. But one horrific event shattered her picturesque life. Now she has fled as far as the train line and a pocketful of money would take her, finding refuge at the St. Mary’s Orphan Asylum on Galveston Island, where she helps the nuns care for their young charges and prays her past will not find her. Despite her tenuous standing at the orphanage–and the grief and betrayal that drove her from home–Kathleen slowly begins to make friends. There is Emily, the novice nun she rooms with; Maggie, the tempestuous young girl who only bonds with Kathleen; and Matthew, a kind, handsome man recently employed by Isaac Cline at Galveston’s office of the US Weather Bureau.
Then in one fateful day, Kathleen’s fragile new life begins to crack as it becomes clear that she can’t run far enough to escape the reach of her former life. Meanwhile, as troubling news about a storm crossing the Gulf from Cuba swirls in the Weather Bureau offices, Matthew holds fast to Cline’s belief that no hurricane can touch Galveston. But as darkness falls on the island, Kathleen must gather her courage and reach for a strength beyond her own if she–and those she loves–are to survive.

Story Of God And Us
$19.99Pastor and author Jonathan Murphy provides readers with a framework–a master plot–to the story of all history. This deep exploration of Scripture reveals that God is in complete command of this universe and how He guides everyone’s story: past, present, and future.
Good stories make you laugh, cry, fear, dream, hope. They engage our hearts, entertain our minds, and enlighten our souls. God wrote a story–the best story ever!–full of drama, adventure, love, sacrifice, redemption, and has an ending that seems too good to be true. And the greatest thing about God’s story is that we are all part of it. His story provides the meaning of life that brings fulfillment of our desires and purpose for our existence.?
The Story of God and Us shows not only what God is doing from creation to eternity, but how everything makes sense as you read the Bible from the beginning of Genesis to the end of Revelation. World history is not made up of random people and events but of divine appointment and purpose. In this book, Jonathan Murphy leads readers to understand how:
*the meaning of life is essential to a fulfilling relationship and partnership with God;
*God accomplishes His plans in a pleasing and connecting way;
*a multidimensional view of Scripture can engage and delight even the most disinterested and distracted; and
*seeing the big picture can provide a fresh look at how our story clearly fits into God’s.
As Jonathan retells God’s story through a fresh lens, Christians will better understand how much God loves them, how He desires us to live with Him and for Him, and why we should invite others into this amazing story every chance that we get!

Overwhelmed Mom : Quiet The Chaos, Mind What Matters, And Enjoy Your Life A
$15.99Is there a happy medium between Pinterest perfection and chaos culture?
Moms hear a chorus of competing messages. One minute, we’re told we can do it all, and the next, we’re encouraged to be “real women” who live as “Hot Mess Mombies.” Both anthems-perfection and chaos-leave us feeling burdened.
In Overwhelmed Mom, Jamie Erickson shows us how to push back against the weariness epidemic that plagues so many women on both ends of the spectrum. Through biblical principles and flexible solutions, she’ll help us learn to adjust our homes, schedules, and attitudes so that we may experience right-now relief and forward movement in common stress areas.
The Try-Hard gospel of the world assures us that if we just got up earlier, stayed up later, and micromanaged every waking moment, we can outrun our overwhelm. But no amount of running on empty will ever help us catch up. Reshaping a harried life is long-game, soul work.
Overwhelmed Mom equips women to edit their lives with intention, find purpose and vision in the work God has called them to, and create daily rhythms that will help them steward their days with delight, not drudgery. Each chapter ends with questions and prompts for readers to consider as they unmoor themselves from the relentless to-do list that plagues them.
We don’t have to keep living as overwhelmed moms-Jamie invites us to experience freedom and enjoy the gift of motherhood.

Romans : A Devotional Commentary – See God’s Purposes With New Eyes
$18.99With accessible expository commentary paired with inspirational devotional thought, The See Series speaks to both the heart and mind unlocking a deeper understanding of the Bible often reserved for scholars and theologians.
The letter of Romans is not just a general statement of Christian beliefs. It’s a personal letter to believers struggling with real issues and still learning the implications of believing in the God of Israel. Throughout this letter, vital truths emerge, including humanity’s universal predicament, the nature of the message of salvation by grace through faith, the relationship between faith and works, the death of our old life and the gift of new life through the resurrection of Christ, how this all fits in God’s overall plans, and what it all means for daily life. Read this letter for the depth and details, but never lose sight of the breadth of the vision it presents.
Written by beloved devotional writer and biblical scholar Chris Tiegreen, each book of The See Series does more than encourage us simply to know and then do; rather, casts a vision for us to see, then be, then live. Like Jesus, who incorporated visual language into all his teaching, this series aims at refocusing our inner eye. If we can see what biblical writers saw and live according to that vision, we can be transformed.
A valuable resource packed with insight, each commentary includes:
*an introduction to the biblical book to aid your study
*an introduction for each subsection of the book, explaining its place and purpose in the text, the historical context or background of that section, and how it fits into the big-picture vision of biblical truth
*a series of devotionals on the text that further explain purpose and meaning, offer suggestions for practical application, and inspire and challenge you to re-envision to learn to see in new ways
*a discussion guide in the back to help you further reflect on the Scripture passages and/or talk about them with others to expand your spiritual vision even more
Romans: A Devotional Commentary guides you through this New Testament epistle from the apostle Paul, bringing transformation for your mind, heart, and imagination.

Psalms : A Devotional Commentary – See Your Worship With New Eyes
$18.99With accessible expository commentary paired with inspirational devotional thought, The See Series speaks to both the heart and mind unlocking a deeper understanding of the Bible often reserved for scholars and theologians.
The Psalms provide an occasion for us to immerse ourselves in God’s presence and the nature of his Kingdom. We can read the Bible and listen to sermons all day long, but the truth we read or hear just fades away after a few days, unless we are cultivating the Kingdom within us. The soil of our hearts needs to be right. In many respects, this is what King David and other psalmists wrote about in the Psalms. They are case studies in truth taking root in the heart, where God ultimately wants his Word and his Holy Spirit to dwell.

Philippians : A Devotional Commentary – See Your Life With New Eyes
$18.99With accessible expository commentary paired with inspirational devotional thought, The See Series speaks to both the heart and mind unlocking a deeper understanding of the Bible often reserved for scholars and theologians.
Like all Scripture, Paul’s letter to the Philippians reorients our vision. It is clear throughout this letter he was at peace and the believers at Philippi weren’t. And the difference is perspective. He clearly wanted to change how they viewed their (and his) circumstances. By reframing the picture, he gave them reasons to celebrate, endure, heal their divisions, and move forward in faith. And he gave us a field manual for seeing our lives with new eyes and overcoming adversity.
