Who am I? Everyone asks that question, no matter their age or status in life. If we truly are supposed to be real with others, shouldn’t that start with learning how to be real with ourselves? We think so. But we have to be willing to look inside and ask, "Okay, God, who am I? What is it that I don’t see about myself that you see?"
A Book Called YOU will help us learn about:
- Who we are as individuals
- How a biblical view of self-discovery can improve every part of our lives.
- Assigns Enneagram numbers to biblical characters
- Provides heartfelt, humorous, and prescriptive Enneagram perspective
- Helps readers be more authentic and honest with God, themselves, and others.
Based on his widely successful teaching series "A Series Called You" and his personal experience using the Enneagram personality assessment tool in his marriage and other personal relationships, pastor Matt Brown offers a groundbreaking, entertaining, and heartfelt guide that highlights biblical truths alongside the Enneagram to help us better understand ourselves and how we relate to the people around us.
The forecast is calling for a reluctant homecoming and regrettable decisions with a strong chance of romance…
When Sonny Dunes, a SoCal meteorologist whose job is all sunshine and seventy-two-degree days, is replaced by a virtual meteorologist that will never age, gain weight or renegotiate its contract, the only station willing to give the fifty-year-old another shot is the very place Sonny’s been avoiding since the day she left for college—her northern Michigan hometown.
Sonny grudgingly returns to the long, cold, snowy winters of her childhood…with the added humiliation of moving back in with her mother. Not quite an outsider but no longer a local, Sonny finds her past blindsiding her everywhere: from the high school friends she ghosted, to the former journalism classmate and mortal frenemy who’s now her boss, to, most keenly, the death years ago of her younger sister, who loved the snow.
To distract herself from the memories she's spent her life trying to outrun, Sonny throws herself headfirst into covering every small-town winter event to woo a new audience, made more bearable by a handsome widower with optimism to spare. But with someone trying to undermine her efforts to rebuild her career, Sonny must make peace with who she used to be and allow her heart to thaw if she’s ever going to find a place she can truly call home.
Zera is a Heartless - the immortal, unageing soldier of a witch.
Bound to the witch Nightsinger ever since she saved her from the
bandits who murdered her family, Zera longs for freedom from the
woods they hide in. With her heart in a jar under Nightsinger's
control, she serves the witch unquestioningly. Until Nightsinger
asks Zera for a Prince's heart in exchange for her own, with one
addendum; if she's discovered infiltrating the court, Nightsinger
will destroy her heart rather than see her tortured by the
witch-hating nobles. Crown Prince Lucien d'Malvane hates the royal
court as much as it loves him - every tutor too afraid to correct
him and every girl jockeying for a place at his darkly handsome
side. No one can challenge him - until the arrival of Lady Zera.
She's inelegant, smart-mouthed, carefree, and out for his blood.
The Prince's honor has him quickly aiming for her throat. So begins
a game of cat and mouse between a girl with nothing to lose and a
boy who has it all. Winner takes the loser's heart. Literally.
