Getting married should be one of the pinnacles of our lives, and developing a lasting relationship should be the main goal. Marriage is more than merely living together--it is living as one. But to live as one, every marriage needs the necessary tools such as: having the right person, being in the right position, using the right language, and developing the right relationship in order for us to stay together for a lifetime.

Marriage: Until Death Do Us Part begins with the story of a marriage in crisis and a wife who has reached her breaking point. De'Borah Sarrmon should have celebrated fifteen years of marital bliss, but instead, she found herself saying the one thing she vowed never to say, "Isaia I want a divorce."

From modern pop culture to anti-Blackness, faith and family, politics, education, creativity and working life; this anthology gives visibly Muslim women a space to speak. SPOILER ALERT: We won't be answering the usual questions! Perceived as the visual representation of Islam, hijab-wearing Muslim women are nevertheless rarely afforded a platform on their own terms. Harangued by awkward questions, radical commentators sensationalising our existence, non-Muslims and non-hijabis making assumptions, men speaking on our behalf, or stereotypical norms being perpetuated by the same old faces, hijabis are tired. Cut from the Same Cloth? seeks to tip the balance back in our favour. Here, twenty-one women of all ages and races look beyond the tired tropes, exploring the breadth of our experience and spirituality. It's time we, as a society, stop with the hijab-splaining and make space for the women who know.

This is the true story of the life-changing experience of a healthy man, who at the age of thirty-six, was diagnosed with the most aggressive type of malignant brain tumour. The world he knew became a battlefield of the mind and body alike. Having been given a few months to live, he endured the disturbing challenges of a state hospital, defying all odds with his uncomplaining attitude and positivity. The book emphasises his perseverance through seemingly impossible situations. Despite his deteriorating vision and unremitting headaches, Craig's humour and easy-going manner carried him through three years more than his life expectancy. From the time of diagnosis, he began to live the moment, striving to overcome his affliction. Written by his mother, the story highlights her own sentiments, as she relates her long walk with her son and how she and her husband nursed him through the final months of his life.

Seven-year-old Jeff Hillman loved to skateboard, make mischief, and fish. But everything changed the day he contracted a mysterious illness called Reye's syndrome.

In this insightful glimpse into the life of a young man who died and then returned to tell about it-who encountered angels and experienced dramatic healing-you can see that God is still a God of miracles. He not only sees us in our struggles; He meets us in them.

Witness the power of faith as Jeff and his family choose to focus not on the hardship of the moment but on God's ability to love them through it. Rejoice in the Lord with them as they learn that joy and peace come with believing that God is using all of life's twists and turns to accomplish purposes far beyond our understanding. Jesus Christ can provide just what we need to live not as victims, but as victors. But will we, like Jeff Hillman, choose to trust in Him?

An identity crisis has wrought confusion and chaos in the land. A mixture of message and lack of authenticity has bound and scattered the flock with fear and condemnation. The judges and leaders have become corrupt as each man follows his own way. It is from within this darkness that the Lord's light will shine, bringing the order and justice in His Standard to establish His righteousness.

This discovery releases the fullness of joy and the presence of peace you have been looking for. Rivers of living water, divine potential, fullness unlocked, and life abundant is revealed inside the seed of God. He is your breath, He is your life, He is your strength, and He is your Source We are created in the substance of His Image and the likeness of His form; Christ in you the hope of glory.

The Joy of Christ

Can you smell the fragrance in your nose?Can you feel the wind as the Spirit flows?Rejoicing with each other in a praise-filled song, As we walk together in this journey we are on.

Far more sweet than the sweetest rose, That is the joy of Christ upon your clothes.The light of His pure truth shining in the darkMakes the brightest light of hope from a tiny spark.

Creation on your lips and life flowing from your heart, Playing out this dream of His which He had from the start.What garden do you see, my friend, one that's parched and bare?Or will you awaken to the Spirit and find it laden there?

Healing in your wings and prayers upon your lips;A fragrant oil rises and from your body drips.Your face is lit with fire; your robes are white as snow.The mindset of the Son is what you'll come to know.

"In the 20 years I've known Keith Payne as a sales professional, public speaker and friend, he has never failed to delight me. His wit, intelligence and plain horse sense come through brilliantly in these pages. To anyone wanting to maintain a positive outlook regardless of the circumstances I say: Read this book Craig Bridgman, Colleague & friend for 20+ years. Keith speaks with experience and passion about fully embracing and engaging life's race, overcoming it's many obstacles, while keeping eyes on the prize. If you want more out of life and you're looking for a mentor, you have to read this book Kathleen Reed, Ministry Colleague & friend for 10+ years

You will enjoy Keith's inspirational wisdom and insight in this amazing collection of personal experiences and practical applications. I'm doubly blessed not only to read these, but to actually have witnessed some of them with him as well Jeff Coleman, Ministry Colleague & friend for 20+ years."

In "The Best Is Always... Still Yet To Come," author Keith Payne shares many "slice of life" vignettes drawn from his own experiences. His stories recall good times and bad, often with humor and sometimes with sadness, but always with an opportunity for you to make a practical life application. Drawing on wisdom and instruction from Scripture, Keith Payne seeks to encourage and inspire you to a better outlook and outcome, regardless of your circumstances.

Divided into weekly readings, these stories are designed to inspire you to be "decidedly different" and consider all of the life circumstances facing you-even the difficult ones-as opportunities to embrace a positive, faith-based outlook. By doing so, your attitude will blossom, and your smile and laughter will be contagious; you will have discovered that the best is always... "still yet to come."

Possibly there is nothing more conducive to thoughts of the Eternal, than having one's face slammed into red, wet muck, with explosions so close your body arcs and bounces off the ground, hot shards burn in your flesh, and concussions are bright flashes of dirty fire beating a tattoo on the light receptors in the backs of your eyes. Your head aches; throbbing from visual shock waves.

Time has come to an end; there is no right, no wrong, only whatever follows a life that is now over. The dark reaper is here. What's it going to be like on the other side? Is there an "other side"?

The old timers use the maxim, "There are no atheists in a fox-hole." Possibly so; I can only give my own experience, and I never had the opportunity to be in one. Combat aviators crash and sometimes burn instead. But close calls almost always give rise to interminable questions; especially when the survived experience is seared into the human psyche.

For some, satisfactory answers never seem to come. For myself, may I pro-offer both scorching experience, and incredible life-lessons learned? Then, should you ever fall into similar adventure; you man go into it better prepared than I was.

Author Harvey Marshall gleaned great thoughts, ideas, and inspiration while reading the Bible, and he wanted to share what he found with others. At first, he texted the encouraging words he learned by cell phone. Then, he sent them via e-mail, and finally he created a website with which to share the good news. In "Promises to Confess to," Marshall shares these lessons, gleaned from Scripture readings, and discusses the meanings behind the encouraging words and the promises from God that are a part of the Bible's message. He follows each short inspiration with a confession or prayer that relates to the discussion. "Promises to Confess to" provides a lens through which to look at God and to appreciate the many colors that his glory has allowed to fall upon the earth.
