This is the true story of Ora-Jay and Irene Eash, Amish farmers
from northwest Montana whose lives changed in an instant when a
semi-truck struck the family buggy, killing their two young
daughters. After the accident, the couple turned to their Amish
community for comfort, but they remained haunted by the thought
that they might not see their girls again in heaven. Would their
deeds be good enough? Eventually Ora-Jay and Irene learned that
grace---not works---was enough to ensure their place in eternity.
But with that knowledge came the realization that they could no
longer live in an Amish community that didn t share this precious
belief. Could they sever their connection to the Amish family they
loved? This is the story of their journey to the hope that is
heaven, a hope stronger than the loss of children, family, and a
way of life. Fans of Amish fiction will appreciate such a real-life
look into the Amish community, co-written by bestselling author
Tricia Goyer, and readers of all kinds will resonate with this tale
of courage, resilience, and the redemption found in the grace of
Jesus."

through the blind audition--with all four celebrity judges vying to
coach him--he also won the show's entire eighteenth season. Fans
were drawn to Todd's tremendous joy on stage, giving them

pandemic. In their first book, Todd and Brooke share how their
focus on joy and celebrating every little win has helped them to
overcome numerous challenges over their twenty-plus-year marriage.

newborn son's life to pastoring a small congregation through
periods of adversity, Todd and Brooke share the lessons they've
learned and the strategies that have moved them from fear to faith

USA Today bestselling author Tricia Goyer and her family of eleven embark on a
yearlong quest to eliminate grumbling from their home and discover a
healthier, more thankful approach to life together.
The Goyer home--with two parents, eight kids, and one eighty-eight-year-old
grandmother with dementia--is never without noise, mess, activity, and, often,
complaining. And it's not just the kids grumbling. After adding seven children in less
than six years through adoption, the Goyer family decided to move out of
survival-mode and into unity- and growth-mode. They decided to tackle the
impossible: a grumble-free year.
With grade-schoolers, teenagers, and a grandmother who believes children should be
seen and not heard, plenty of room exists for flunking the challenge. Add to that
seven children being homeschooled together in close quarters, and what could
possibly go awry?
In The Grumble-Free Year, the Goyers invite readers into their journey as they go
complaint-free and discover what it looks like to develop hearts of gratitude. They
share their plans, successes, failures, and all the lessons they learn along the way,
offering real-life action steps based in scripture so that readers get not just a
front-row seat to the action but also an opportunity to take the challenge themselves
and uncover hearts that are truly thankful.
Aged eight, Thomas Graumann excitedly boarded a train in Prague,
Czechoslovakia, to embark on what he believed was a three-month
holiday. "Go to Britain, learn English, and when the Germans leave,
you can come home again," his mother assured him. Thomas carried
two suitcases and a bag of food. At the time he knew his country
had been taken over by the Germans and now was under Nazi control.
That was the last he would see of his mother and most of his Jewish
family, who died in concentration camps. He had also never heard of
Nicholas Winton, the hero who saved 669 children (Thomas was one of
the last, #652), transporting them from Czechoslovakia to the UK to
save their lives. This was Thomas' first rescue, aboard what became
known as the Kindertransport. His second came a year later when an
evangelist from the Scottish village he was taken to for safety
shared the good news of Jesus Christ with him. Saying a prayer on
bent knee, Thomas' soul was rescued, and he soon dedicated himself
to missionary service, which he fulfilled as an adult in the
Philippines, eventually moving to the U.S. But his missionary zeal
returned after the fall of Communism-and the return of his
grandmother's property to his family. Both actions ushered in a way
for him to return to the Czech Republic. The former rescued child
was now free to travel throughout his homeland, speaking in schools
of how he was rescued ... not once, but twice.

"Will it make a difference?"
"There's only one way to find out..."

future husband. We think about what it would be like to be a bride.
We wonder who that special guy is and when we'll find him. The
great news is that what you do "now "can make a difference in your
life and the life of your future husband
Authors and good friends Robin Jones Gunn (Christy Miller series)
and Tricia Goyer (author and former teen mom) believe God answers
women's prayers for husbands--even husbands they may not meet for
years. They invite young women to pray boldly for their future mate
... while also asking God to prepare their own hearts.
In "Praying for Your Future Husband," Robin and Tricia share their
two vastly different experiences, including the things they did
right and the mistakes they made on the path to meeting and
marrying their husbands. Each chapter includes helpful Bible
verses, prayers, and practical application, along with true stories
of women who prayed for a husband and how God answered in
remarkable ways.
God has a beautiful romance prepared for you. Prayer is the key to
unlocking the love story ... with your future husband and with God,
the lover of your soul.
