A mesmerizing debut about a young girl whose steadfast belief and imagination bring everything she once held dear into treacherous balance In Grace McCleen's harrowing, powerful debut, she introduces an unforgettable heroine in ten-year-old Judith McPherson, a young believer who sees the world with the clear Eyes of Faith. Persecuted at school for her beliefs and struggling with her distant, devout father at home, young Judith finds solace and connection in a model in miniature of the Promised Land that she has constructed in her room from collected discarded scraps--the Land of Decoration. Where others might see rubbish, Judith sees possibility and divinity in even the strangest traces left behind. As ominous forces disrupt the peace in her and Father's modest lives--a strike threatens her father's factory job, and the taunting at school slips into dangerous territory--Judith makes a miracle in the Land of Decoration that solidifies her blossoming convictions. She is God's chosen instrument. But the heady consequences of her newfound power are difficult to control and may threaten the very foundations of her world. With its intensely taut storytelling and crystalline prose, The Land of Decoration is a gripping, psychologically complex story of good and evil, belonging and isolation, which casts new and startling light on how far we'll go to protect the things we love most.

Prophecy pages are turning! As each page rests upon the other, events begin to unfold all around us. Fear is replacing the peace that has kept our borders and it's amazing at what freedoms we are willing to give up, just to feel safe. With the ever-growing economic uncertainties, we as believers are supposed to be at peace so that an unbelieving world might ask concerning the hope that is within us. Yet today, we find more than ever that the church is hurting and is just as uncertain about the future as everyone else. Our joy has been replaced by anxiety and what was once so clear has now become a cloudy gray. We struggle to remain true to the convictions of those who shed their blood defending them. The body of Christ is at a crossroads. The syncretism of religion declares that there are many faces to God but only one voice, and these falsehoods are pushing the believer to make a stand! Resistance to this path labels one as a fanatic and a radical. What are we as followers of Christ supposed to be doing and what is our hope? Dave Dungan answers some of these questions scripturally as we see that we were created to minister to God His Glory and not our own. We are to be a living sacrifice so that we might be prepared "An Offering Made by Fire," a sweet smell to a most Holy God.
