In Only One Life, mother-and-daughter team Jackie Green and Lauren McAfee share the stories of 36 remarkable women from Bible times to today, inviting women to step into the sisterhood of women God uses to change the world.

When women follow their longing to step into a story bigger than themselves, they discover new purpose and joy in the most ordinary days. Yet in the busyness of modern life, it can be easy for women to forget the power they have in God to influence future generations.

In Only One Life, Jackie Green and Lauren Green McAfee share the stories of women throughout centuries to remind readers how God multiplies seemingly small, daily offerings of faithfulness. The authors explore the lives of women such as:

•Mary Magdalene, the first witness to Jesus's resurrection.

•Catherine Booth, an early apologist for women's rights and cofounder of the Salvation Army.

•Christine Caine, a contemporary speaker and human rights activist

•And other ordinary women who have done extraordinary things, including Harriet Tubman, Queen Esther, Lottie Moon, and Joni Eareckson Tada.

Women have a unique role in impacting others through leadership, family, and faith. Only One Life offers women courage to shape their legacy and change the world for good-forever.

Stand Up addresses the growing need for women to enter the narrative of how American culture is presently being shaped and leave their mark on a world screaming for relevance, excellence, and truth. Divisiveness and double standards have overrun our culture. If everyone stands up and models decency, courage, and good manners, communities and families will flourish. Stand Up is a battle cry for women to take a posture of readiness and action, determine their purpose, plan for successes, and overcome the loneliness that threatens this silent majority. Rene Banglesdorf, an entrepreneur, encourages women to exemplify good behavior in the areas of temptation, forgiveness, and hypocrisy-three areas that threaten especially Christian women's credibility in a searching world. Stand Up explains how women who want to leave a legacy can repurpose their fears, recover from failures, get what they want out of life, and press on to fulfill their destiny. The unique perspective from a female executive in a 99-percent-male-dominated role-who spent many of her career-development years as a stay-at-home mom-compels women of all ages to believe the best can be ahead of them if they indeed stand up, stand out, and stand firm in their beliefs.

The Hurt Lady, Spiritual Warfare Manual... finally is a book that exposes the enemy and goes to the "juggler vein" of what the Church and women in ministry need. This book helps to close the gaps of spiritual trauma that pastor's wives, minister's wives, pastoral families and women in ministry encounter. Bishop Green puts together a literary spiritual masterpiece, designed for any woman that needs spiritual balance, and deliverance from hurtful issues that the Church can no longer afford to ignore. Spiritual warfare transcends all ethnic and denominational barriers. Spiritual warfare comes with the territory of being a woman of God and a woman called to ministry. "Twenty five years ago, no one told me about the warfare that would come against my marriage, my children and the ministry. But I want to tell my story so others will be better prepared than I was." Accountability to our pastoral families is long overdue. This book identifies the "taboo" issues good church folk ignore, and offers a godly solution to recovery, restoration and redemption. It is a must read for every minister's wife or woman in ministry, whose calling has been silenced, buried and discounted. This book is also a healing guide for preacher's kids (PK's) and deals with the secret issues of domestic violence in the parsonage. It also addresses "Singleness in Christ," and how to accomplish balance and be aware of the dangers of Prince Charming. Singlessness is not a curse, but a privilege. "I am writing this manual as one that has grown in spiritual authority, experience and grace. No matter what people told me or how many books I read, I still had to grow in spiritual authority, experience and God's grace. The secretis being able to come out of it all, not bitter, but better."
