to discover the life he created you to live - here on earth, and
forever in eternity. Let The Purpose Driven Life show you how.

A profound follow-up to the bestselling book and major motion
picture, The Ultimate Gift. When Jason Stevens found out he had to
jump through hoops to get an unnamed inheritance from his
billionaire grandfather, he was not amused. By the time he'd
finished learning the lessons, he'd become a different man. Ready
to tackle the duties of running a multibillion-dollar trust, he is
once again derailed, this time by his pugnacious family. Not
content with their cattle ranches and oil fields, his aunts,
uncles, and even his parents are determined to see every last dime
entrusted to their own self-serving pockets. With none of the
reluctance he initially showed for the gift, he eagerly accepts the
challenge and pushes himself to prove, not only to his family and
the court but also to the world, that with determination and the
simple tenets of the gift, anyone can lead the ultimate life.

Does God really exist and do divine miracles really happen? At a
time when many are searching for truth and questioning whether
there really is a God, Burnt Stone provides an inspirational
account of several divine encounters personally experienced by the
author Virginia Douglas (Howe). In part one of this book Virginia
seeks to explain sound Biblical truths about the Father, the Son
and the Holy Spirit, together with powerful testimonies of her own
personal experiences with the Lord. In part two she shares her own
personal life story in a way that is both candid and compelling.
She manages to demonstrate genuine gratitude and a healthy dose of
humour despite all that she has been through. Burnt Stone
communicates a very timely message that no matter what setbacks you
experience in life, it is possible to overcome them all by trusting
in the Lord and believing in His Word. It provides clear evidence
that God still heals and delivers today and that He remains the
same yesterday, today and forever. Virginia Douglas (Howe) is an
anointed woman of God, a prayer warrior, an intercessor and a
teacher who serves as an appointed elder in her local church. Born
in Jamaica in the 1940s, she has experienced numerous personal
challenges throughout her life, almost losing her life on several
occasions. Since accepting Christ in the late 1980s, she is now
dedicated to serving God and sharing her personal testimony to
inspire others to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
