Friendships have been a great joy in her life. People blossom when they have a friend. This book traces that blossoming among three very different young pioneer women in the late 1800's; one, African American, two generations away from slavery; and two European immigrants, second generation.

We are living in one of the most crucial times in the history of our nation. Our financial security has been shaken, our national security threatened, and we are at war in the Middle East. In the American Church, the grip of religion, false worship, and disunity is leaving us as tasteless salt to the world. The plum line of truth is increasingly becoming more skewed to fit the agendas of ambitious ministry. However, there is a generation rising up and crying out to know God in a real way. They are not about "doing church," but about glorifying God. These young leaders will lay a foundation of true change during a time of real persecution and trial by fire. We, the church, must embrace this Josiah spirit, crown them with authority, and support them as they restore true worship in the church. A fiery windstorm is coming that will scorch the flesh and expose the heart. Listen to the winds as they whisper what is to come. From its lips and out of its throat bellows the heart of God, this is Josiah's Cry: The Rising Revolution. Can you hear it?

Josiah's childhood was full of heartaches. By the time he was eight years old, both his grandfather and father had passed away. Their deaths introduced conflicts into Josiah's life that seemed hard to overcome. As a youth, Josiah would have to assume the throne vacated by his grandfather and father, and he would have to choose his own path as a man and king. Would he follow the godly example demonstrated in his grandfather's last days, or would he follow the example of his father's wickedness? Josiah's choice directed not only his own path, but also that of the kingdom he ruled.

With “clever storytelling” shifting between past and present, the final Homer Kelly mystery has the scholar/sleuth solving the puzzle of a missing church (Booklist). Somehow, against all odds, Homer Kelly has become famous. After decades toiling in academic obscurity, the Harvard professor has a book on the bestseller list. To capitalize on his sudden fame, Homer’s editor demands another book, and fast. Homer is working on Steeplechase, a tour of churches in and around his little patch of Massachusetts, and at his editor’s request he goes searching for some ancient gossip to spice up his new work. What he finds is a baffling Reconstruction-era mystery. Hot-air balloons, nursery rhymes, and the great chestnut tree in the village of Nashoba all form part of Homer’s ancestors’ thrilling story. As the tale shifts between 1868 and the present day, a picture emerges of a small-town Massachusetts that’s hardly changed, and a secret which, if it weren’t for Homer, may have stayed buried for all time.
