Sutton Spencer's ideas for her life were fairly simple: finish graduate school and fall in love. It would be a lot simpler if she could pinpoint exactly what she should do when she graduates in less than a year. Oh, and if she could figure out how to talk to a woman without feeling like a total mess, that would be great too. Charlotte Thompson is very much the opposite. She's always had clear steps outlining her path to success with no time or inclination for romance. Her burgeoning career in politics means everything to her and she's not willing to compromise it for something as insignificant as love. Fleeting, casual, and discreet worked perfectly fine. When they meet through a dating app, it's immediately clear that they aren't suited for anything more than friendship. Right?

“Words from the poet flowing freely across the paper inspired by the Unseen Hand. Such is how Mollie Pool would capsulize her writing. While she would define her life as ordinary, the words reflecting rhyme and metaphor, give the reader a sense of the extraordinary gift she has been bestowed. Mollie Pool uses this gift to uplift, inspire, and enfold us as we meet life’s challenges. She reminds us of the power of faith and love; and through her eulogizing poems, she shows us the richness, goodness and glimpses of godliness in the lives of everyday people.” —Jeannine M. Quick-Frasier “Over the past twenty years, my husband and I have been privileged recipients of Mollie Pool’s original poems. We’ve received a poem each year with our Christmas card. While our son was battling cancer and when he passed away, Mollie sent us several poems of encouragement. Her thoughtfulness and her deep walk with our Heavenly Father come through in her writing. Mollie’s poems are easy to read and comprehend as well as uplifting. You will enjoy reading They That Wait.” —Annie Morrison, pastor’s wife, Columbus Northwest Church of the Nazarene

This book of poetry is intended to offer "hope and inspiration", as refl ected in the Christian faith. It was written by our eldest son, Craig, when he was a teenager. We recently rediscovered it and decided to have it published, so that others can enjoy and be inspired by his creativity. Craig was born on January 17, 1963, in Hagerstown, MD. In 1972, our family moved to Buckeystown, MD, and to Smithsburg, MD, in 1976. Craig recently moved to Hagerstown , MD. He was always very artistic and creative, not only in his writings, but also, in his artwork and in other projects that he undertook. In his youth , he developed a very beautiful butterfl y and insect collection. He especially admired the Monarch butterfl y, as it is so majestic and colorful in appearance. He was an avid student of insects of all kinds and became very knowledgeable in the fi eld. He now enjoys imparting this knowledge to his neice and nephews. To this day, when we see a Monarch Butterfl y, or a Praying Mantis, we think of Craig. The butterfl y symbolizes transformation to a new life and freedom, as do these poems. THUS, the cover of this book shows the Monarch butterfl y, transformed from a caterpillar, to a chrysalis, and fi nally, to a beautiful butterfl y- one of God's amazing creations. The book also shows God's handiwork in the exquisite, scenic photographs taken by Joanie L. Kercheval, Craig's sister in law; & a drawing of Christ's passionate face, done by Craig in his late teens. The cover picture of the butterfl y was painted by Craig's mother, Nancy. Over the years, Craig has had several of his art works published & was the recipient of a variety of awards for his creativity in the arts. SPECIAL THANKS to Joanie for contributing her wonderful photographs to this book!

A job, a true love, a baby, a cure. . . We’re all waiting for something from God. And the place between His answers can feel like a wasteland where dreams—and faith—go to die. When we’re waiting, we wonder, “Why?”, “Why me?”, and “How long?” But the truth? . . . When God says, “Wait,” He doesn’t tell us for how long. When God says, “Wait,” we face one of life’s greatest tests. When God says, “Wait,” we have decisions to make. When God says, “Wait,” we can control only two things: how we wait, and who we become along the way. Author Elizabeth Laing Thompson invites you to walk alongside people of the Bible who had to wait on God. . .imperfect heroes like David, Miriam, Naomi, Sarah, Joseph, and others.

They might even help you learn to enjoy the ride. This book is about the journey of waiting, the space between answers, and the people we become while we live there.
