New Booklet on Prayer By Bill Crowder

Let's TalkLet's Talk ... Praying Your Way to a Deeper Relationship with GodBill Crowder

Book Blurb: Why, in our times of deep spiritual and emotional turmoil, do we not turn to television pundits or to celebrities or to anyone else offering an opinion? Why do we pour out our souls to God in prayer? In Let's Talk, author and Bible teacher Bill Crowder reminds us that "Christ repeatedly retreated to the invisible presence of the Father."

Examining the significance of prayer in the lives of believers, this straightforward book encourages us to make prayer a priority. In its pages, we can find fresh viewpoints on the extraordinary privilege of prayer that present a clearer picture of who God is and why prayer is a vital part of an ongoing pursuit of a closer walk with God.
Let's Talk offers six perspectives on prayer: 1) dependence because we need God desperately
2) rest in the hard work that is life
3) acceptance in whatever the outcome might be
4) intercession always in every opportunity for all
5) mystery in God's sovereignty, yet our prayers matter
6) confidence when torn between faith and doubt, belief and unbelief

Each chapter ends with a "Talking Together" section of discussion questions.
Bill CrowderAbout the Author:Bill Crowder, who spent over twenty years in pastoral ministry, is vice president of ministry content at RBC Ministries. He is a contributor to Our Daily Bread and the author of five books, including The Spotlight of Faith, The Path of His Passion, and Singing the Songs of the Brokenhearted. He and his wife, Marlene, have five children.
On Writing"For me, few things offer a more staggering privilege and responsibility than being allowed to write. While my first love in ministry will always be the spoken word, putting words on a page has a sense of permanence that words floating through the air don't offer."

Lord Danvers by Donna Fletcher Crow

A Most Inconvenient DeathNow Available in PaperbackOne of my favorite gems of wisdom I’ve attempted to pass on to our children is that life gives you second chances. And sometimes even third and fourth chances.That’s certainly true in the case of books in this age of electronic publishing. And my Lord Danvers Victorian true-crime series is a case in point. 
I began the series in 1993— wow, that’s 20 years ago!— with A Most Inconvenient Death, telling the story of the shattering events of the Stanfield Hall murders through the eyes of an eccentric nobleman grieving the death of his fiancé. Of course, this was published in print. That’s all there was 20 years ago. Remember the days?In Grave Matters I told the story of body-snatchers Burke and Hare when Danvers and his new love Lady Antonia went to Edinburgh on their honeymoon— in a hot air balloon, no less.
To Dust You Shall Return followed with problems in their marriage and the Catherine Bacon murder leading to a chase scene over the rooftop of Canterbury Cathedral.And that, it seemed, was that. 
Until life gave me— and Lord Danvers— a second chance with those wonderful, newfangled ebooks when Greenbrier Books returned the series to life with glorious new covers. The series was phenomenally successful, making the top 100 on lots of lists for months. At one time Danvers sat, with an amused grin on his face, between P. D. James and Harlan Coben.
And then in A Tincture of Murder an all-new adventure took Charles and Antonia to Victorian York where William Dove, the notorious "Leeds Poisoner" is on trial for murdering his wife. Dove can’t be the one poisoning the fallen women at the Magdalen Asylum run by Danvers’ young priest brother. 
So who is? Is another madman stalking the streets of York? And what is causing the foul stench at the orphans’ school?
All that’s a fine example for my "second chances" poster. But now there’s more. A third chance? Greenbrier is bringing the series out in print. Yes, the old-fashioned, hold-in-your-hand, put-on-a shelf, made-of-paper kind of book that many of us are finding we really do prefer, in spite of the amazing convenience of electronic readers. And Danvers, the ultimate Victorian gentleman would be pleased. Queen Victoria’s sentiments aside, he might even be amused.
And so might the reading friends on your gift list. Check them out here:

The Firefighter’s New Family by Gail Gaymer Martin

The Firefighter's New FamilyGail Gaymer Martin  The Firefighter's New Family 
Do you find firefighter’s lives different? I do, especially since writing this book. They live in danger everyday they work to save people’s lives and property.   
The Firefighter’s New Family is the second novel in the Sisters Series. It follows the first novel, Her Valentine Hero, the story of the older sister, Neely. This novel is Ashley’s story, introduced in the first book. 
In April, you will read the last story in the series, and you will meet that character in this new book. The third novel,  Rescued By The Firefighter, is also a uniue story that opens our eyes to the lives and dangers of fire fighting.
A tornado may have left Ashley Kern injured beneath a fallen tree, but it’s her rescuer who plays havoc with her emotions. Firefighter Devon Murphy is everything the single mom could wish for in a husband: handsome, a doting father and ready to join his family to hers. 
But how can the pretty war widow make a life once more with a man whose career is full of danger? 
Devon has fought some pretty big battles in his life, but can he help Ashley conquer her fears and show her the safest place of all is in his arms?

 RT 4 Star Review: In the second book in the Sisters series, strong characters demonstrate how we should not let fear prevent us from living the life God has planned. Martin is inventive with her offbeat comparison of a family to a puzzle.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gail Gaymer MartinAbout Author Gail Gaymer Martin:Looking back after I’ve been blessed as a multi-award-winning author of over fifty novels and 3-1/2 million books in print, I realize I was a slow starter. When I was in the third grade, my teacher wrote a prophetic message on my report card, “Gail is an excellent writer.” Today I realize she recognized a talent that took me fifty years to recognize.Now a published novelist and freelance writer, I look back on my early writing and chuckle. As a pre-teen, I wrote a series of Nancy Drew-type mysteries, and in my teen years, I wrote romances — but not knowing romance needed a happy ending, I often did things like kill the heroine at the end of the story. Needless to say, my first attempts at romance failed.Writing is my ministry. From reader letters, I know that Christian stories touch the hearts of readers and make a difference in their lives. I am blessed to be among other Christian writers around the world. Writing romance and romantic suspense combines elements I love—romance, suspense, and my love for the Lord.

Christmas Western Novel: Hard Winter at Broken Arrow Crossing

Hard Winter at Broken Arrow CrossingHard Winter at Broken Arrow Crossing, Christmas Western Novel by Award-Winning Author Stephen BlyChristmas 1875 Stuart Brannon lost his wife, Lisa Nash Brannon, and infant son in childbirth. In this 1876 Christmas western novel, a horrific blizzard was only the start of his troubles.
Stuart Brannon didn't need another disaster. The fierce winter at Broken Arrow Crossing couldn't come at a worse time. Brannon had abandoned his Arizona ranch, sick with grief after losing his family and his cattle. That's when the vicious Colorado storm struck.Half-frozen, Brannon stumbles into the isolated stage station at Broken Arrow Crossing. He finds a wounded prospector who he tries to nurse back to health. Other stragglers arrive at the station. An abused, pregnant Indian girl. Naïve gold seekers. Drawn into their desperate plights, Brannon plunges into a dangerous mission to rescue a boy from Indians. Then he becomes the target of an outlaw band.
Written in the tradition of Zane Grey, Luke Short, and Louis L'Amour, Christmas western novel Hard Winter at Broken Arrow Crossing recreates the tumultuous Old West where good battles evil.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~What others say about Stephen Bly western novels:

"One hallmark of Stephen Bly's classic westerns is that they are complete. Bly gives you the full experience, every detail, evoking a period he has mastered." -- Jerry B. Jenkins, New York Times bestselling author, The Left Behind Series, Riven, I, Saul

"Bly does a lot of things right for lovers of the traditional western ... (he) clearly knows the country he writes about: the difference between pinion pines and chaparral, what the weather will do, how horses tire. He knows about guns and seems to have thoroughly researched the behavior of Indian war parties." -- Booklist

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Excerpt from Christmas western novel, Hard Winter at Broken Arrow Crossing: 

Sometime before darkness or death, Stuart Brannon had to find Broken Arrow Crossing. He considered tying the bandana around his left hand. The numb, bare flesh of three fingers stuck out from the stiff, worn leather glove. But his nose and ears felt worse. The sharp pain stage had ceased hours before, and now a dull, mind-deadening throb signaled real trouble.

Jerking the red bandana over his face, Brannon attempted to keep the blowing snow from slicing into his skin. His eyes, frost-covered and nearly frozen shut, strained to scout the blizzard for a trail.

With black hat tilted low, he saw very little. Brannon's right hand jammed deep into a coat pocket. His left hand encircled the slim horn of the Visalia saddle. The reins laced through the second and third fingers. That much he could see, but couldn't feel.

Sage plodded through the Colorado winter. The white blaze on his black nose pointed down. The howl of the storm muffled any other noise. The horse, the rider crept through the lifeless forest. Alone.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Worry Can’t Change Others by Kathy Collard Miller There’s something deep inside of us that believes worry can change others. If someone we love has a different perspective than we do, we worry. If someone we love has a different belief about God, we worry. If someone we love has a character flaw, we worry. We just know their wrong thinking will mess up their lives. Some of these worries may truly seem “worthy” of worry. Your mother may not know Christ as her Savior, and she has cancer. Your son may be on the street taking drugs. Your friend may demonstrate a lack of integrity at work. Another friend drives while intoxicated. You may have tried to reason, cajole, quote Scripture, even manipulate each person into changing their ideas and their behavior, but nothing has worked—not even prayer. God hasn’t changed them either. You fear something bad, really bad, is going to happen. Even if it’s not a matter of something really bad occurring, we can easily take responsibility for someone else’s happiness and then try to change them.A verse that has helped me in releasing that worry is:  “Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, have this attitude; and if in anything you have a different attitude, God will reveal that also to you” (Philippians 3:15 NASB). If God has the ability to give you and me a different attitude, He can do it for anyone. He is powerful and creative. When we worry or feel like we have to change someone’s ideas, we are saying, “God, you aren’t effective enough. You aren’t creative enough to work in this person’s life. I’ve got to do it myself.” When I think of how God creatively worked in our daughter Darcy’s life, I sense the tears coming. Darcy went to Denmark for a semester of college and requested to live in the home of a Danish family. At that time, Darcy was friendly with us, but distant emotionally. But while in Denmark, our phone calls soon were centered on how badly her Danish “mother” was treating her— ignoring her and saying mean things to her. Larry and I were incensed, as most parents would be, and I began to worry about my daughter’s emotional health. Then my worry fueled anger toward this woman who had no right to treat my daughter like that. We suggested Darcy move to on-campus housing, but she wanted to stick it out. Since we couldn’t afford to go visit her (I would have loved to give that woman a piece of my mind), I had to stew over it … in the beginning. Then I saw God’s work in Darcy’s life. Because of her circumstances, she began to appreciate our family as she never had before. In comparison to the way her Danish family treated her, we were looking pretty good. In fact, fabulous. I’d never heard as much love and warmth in Darcy’s voice as when we talked with her. Shortly before she returned home, she sent a Christmas card and wrote in it: Dear Dad, Mom, and Mark: Since I can’t be there with you for Christmas, I’m writing to tell you how much I’ll miss not being there and how much I love you all. Being away has really made me realize how awesome a family you are. I love and appreciate all of you so much! I can’t wait to come home to see you all. Give my love to the rest of the family. I’ll be seeing you on January 6. Love, Darcy. That was in 1994. After Darcy returned, her appreciation for our family continued to rise to great heights, and it all started with something I was worried about. It’s every mother’s longing to have her child value their family. But in our case, God accomplished this through mistreatment, something I would have changed if I could. But if I had, the good results God intended would not have occurred. Even today, when we talk about that situation, Darcy remarks, “Oh, yes, God really used that in my life.” We don’t want to thwart God’s changes in those we love, do we? We need to make sure worry doesn’t prevent His work. Let’s live like we believe Philippians 3:15: God can change others.

In the coastal town of Pompeii, a new gladiator prepares to fight. But this
gladiator hides a deadly secret: she's a runaway Jewish slave girl named
Ariella, disguised as a young boy. A savvy fighter, Ariella determines to
triumph in the arena, knowing her life will be forfeit should anyone uncover the
truth.



Cato, a wealthy politician, moved to Pompeii after tiring of the corruption
in Rome. But he soon learns that Pompeii is just as corrupt, and if he doesn't
play the game, his family could pay the price. Determined to bring about
justice for the citizens of Pompeii, Cato searches for allies.



But what he
discovers instead is a confounding group of Christians . . . and a young female
gladiator whose fame is growing daily.



Political unrest reaches a boiling point as Christians are jailed and
executed, and the mountain in the distance threatens to destroy the city with
its river of fire. Cato and Ariella must act quickly and courageously to save
their loved ones before all is lost.

Severed Trust

Severed
Trust, 4th book in Men of the Texas Rangers By Margaret Daley





Book Blurb for Severed Trust:




The day Sadie Thompson finds her
high school student, Lexie, asleep in class and

can't wake her is the day she
realizes how entrenched a prescription drug ring is in

her school.




As Sadie is pulled into doing
something about the growing problem, she

becomes involved with Ethan Stone.
He's a Texas Ranger who suspects the drug ring reaches far beyond the high
school.





Helping Lexie recover from the
overdose, Sadie feels she

is making a difference. Until the
16-year-old's best friend dies from the apparent

mixing of various prescription
drugs.




Lexie doesn't think her friend took
her own life. But her relationship with her Uncle Ethan is precarious. And she
doesn’t know if either he or Sadie will help her discover the truth.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
RT Book Review Magazine:

“Daley addresses the growing trend and popular
misconception that prescription medications are not dangerous — which couldn’t
be further from the truth — and does not sugarcoat the stark reality that no
one is invincible in book four of the Men of the Texas Rangers series. Chapters
ending in cliffhangers leave readers thinking “just one more!” This thoroughly
engaging novel is filled with fast-paced suspense and a touch of romance.” 4 ½
