Is nature's garden the only place to gather roses? Not if you know where to look! A Rose Among the Ashes takes you on an enlightening journey toward understanding how "ashes" represent life's trials-where "roses" are the blessings God brings and the heart's "hearth" is where you search to find those roses. Discovering hope during times of crisis can seem like an overwhelming task, but Debby Jones has realized through her own walk of faith that this is just what you have to do in order to continue the journey. The Hearth of My Heart: That deep place within me that experiences all of life's emotions and holds the "love fire" of God. Ashes: The pile of leftovers after my dreams or plans have "gone up in smoke." Roses: Those blessings (or positive things) that can be found on the hearth after cleansing tears have diluted the ashes. Debby shares her heart and God's truths in this poignant story that includes her husband's devastating struggle with cancer and his ultimate home-going. Looking back through the "album pages of life," she began to write about ashes and roses-crises and hope. She also helps the reader to understand the importance of finding that hope and how to take the first step. Walk with her as she encourages you to come to know intimately the One who has helped her discover the hope that fills her life.

As the phoenix emerges from its ashes, Zebian emerges ablaze in these pages, not only as a survivor of abuse, but as a teacher and healer for all those who have struggled to understand, reclaim, and rise above a history of pain. The book is divided into six chapters, and six stages of healing: Falling, Burning to Ashes, Sparks of Phoenix, Rising, Soaring, and finally, A New Chapter, which demonstrates a healthy response to new love as the result of authentic healing. With her characteristic vulnerability, courage, and softness, Zebian seeks to empower those who have been made to feel ashamed, silenced, or afraid; she urges them, through gentle advice and personal revelation, to raise their voices, rise up, and soar.

In this powerful and culminating work about a group of inner-city children he has known for many years, Jonathan Kozol returns to the scene of his previous prize-winning books, and to the children he has vividly portrayed, to share with us their fascinating journeys and unexpected victories as they grow into adulthood. For nearly fifty years, Jonathan has pricked the conscience of his readers by laying bare the savage inequalities inflicted upon children for no reason but the accident of being born to poverty within a wealthy nation. But never has his intimate acquaintance with his subjects been more apparent, or more stirring, than in Fire in the Ashes, as Jonathan tells the stories of young men and women who have come of age in one of the most destitute communities of the United States. Some of them never do recover from the battering they undergo in their early years, but many more battle back with fierce and often jubilant determination to overcome the formidable obstacles they face. As we watch these glorious children grow into the fullness of a healthy and contributive maturity, they ignite a flame of hope, not only for themselves but also for our society.
