"Stop it Bev!" Huge tears were rolling down Andie's cheeks. "You're scaring me." "No. You're scaring me. When we moved in together seven years ago, I thought I was settling down with someone who had some personal integrity. I was obviously mistaken. Ever since we moved here, you've set up this big dividing line between your job and me. Your job's your public life, and I'm your dirty little secret!" When Bev's lover Andie receives an assistant professorship at a Christian-affiliated college, Bev does her best to be supportive. But she isn't too thrilled about the prospect of moving from Boston's lesbian ghetto to the small southern town of Morgan, Kentucky. Before she and Andie are even unpacked, a nosy neighbor is at the door with a welcoming cake and a basketful of personal questions. Bev is shocked when Andie tells the woman that the two of them are cousins—and mortified when the woman promises to set them up with all the eligible men in town, beginning with her grandson Cricket, the local mortician. Thus begins a hilarious and heartwarming tale of lesbian culture shock, the resiliency of true love, and the maddening gap between coming out and being out.

Finding Wholeness through Tears, Joys, and the Everyday From the woman fighting cancer to the man who has lost his child to the girl sinking into depression, so many of us are engaged in daily battles as we long for healing. When he walked the earth, Jesus said to an unwell man, "Do you want to be made well?" His invitation stretched beyond physical healing--he sought to restore the soul. The same invitation stands for us today. For anyone struggling on the journey toward wholeness, singer/songwriter Jenny Simmons offers a resting place and a friend along the way. With personal insight into emotional pain, she invites readers to encounter a God who is working out their restoration--often in surprising "half-baked" ways.

Anyone trying to find their way to spiritual, mental, and emotional healing will benefit from Jenny's vulnerable and compassionate stories of being made well in the midst of a messy life.

From Whiting Award-winning writer John McManus comes a debut novel of startling originality and mystery. The son of an unknown father and an ostracized mother, and the next of kin in a long line of bastard relatives, nine-year-old Loren Garland lives a life of subtle mystery beneath the shadow of an East Tennessee mountain. It is on his family's broken-down estate that Loren's imagination grows, and with it, the extraordinary voice of Bitter Milk, a young boy named Luther who may be Loren's imaginary friend, his conscience, or his evil twin. And yet outside the puzzle of Loren's brain, there are the darker goings-on of his family—his mother who wishes she were a man, his new uncle who plans to develop the Garland land into real estate, and his withered grandfather who holds the clan together through truculence and fear. When Loren's mother disappears, he must set out on a quest of his own devising, tossing aside the trappings of youth in order to discover the truth of the world.

Sydney Monroe, like her grandmother is psychic. Unlike her grandmother, Sydney takes her talent for granted. That is she did until she met the Saintclair family and Vickers Saintclair who seem to be hiding a family secret that is tied to a recent tragedy. When Sydney attempts to help the Saintclairs, things go bad in a hurry and she finds herself in the center of a crisis that is plaguing the family, a crisis that can only be described as evil. To solve this mystery, Sydney must reach beyond her natural talents, her limitations and her firm grip on what is real and reach into the unknown darkness of the spirit world to save a family and, very likely, her own sanity. Prepare yourself for a story that will transcend you from the everyday world of the Garden District of New Orleans to a world where spirits live, curses are cast and reality is not what it seems.

What is a godly way of life? A godly way of life is living our lives in "the way" Jesus lived his life, the "godly way," according to His teachings. A godly way of life is the way we conduct ourselves in our every thought, action, and reaction in our everyday lives to let the rest of the world see our Creator through us by doing the right thing, even when no one is watching. By following in "the way" in which Jesus Christ lived, a godly way, by living our lives in a godly way, we begin to crave more and more the teachings of the Bible and to learn the Bible, which teaches us how to love unconditionally, to be thankful, to glorify our Creator and to become a light, an example that the rest of the world can see our Creator's unconditional love, acceptance, and grace through us.
