Book Description
Here is a devotional with a twist---a twist of life application, a dash of humor, and a tablespoon of tears, coupled with a large dose of Jesus. What began as a traditional devotional eventually grew to include personal true stories that pertain to biblical lessons. These writings are intertwined throughout the book, giving a clear picture of one woman's walk with the Lord. Our lives consist of difficulties, disappointments, failures, joys, and surprises but, with Jesus, they are given an eternal perspective. This powerful testimony describes the deep sorrows that life brings. It also portrays the joys and sense of humor that live within the author. Walking through the memories, letting the gambit of emotions tumble out to be seen by all, is the key to "Having Coffee With Jesus." One minute you'll be crying; the next will bring laughter as you share in the life stories of a woman changed forever by her Savior. The author's hope is that you will be able to relate her stories to your own, possibly allowing you to laugh at yourself, to forgive the unforgiveable, love the unlovable, and let the Lord bring you to that place of healing in your own life.

Book Description
Follow the ultimate coffee geeks on their worldwide hunt for the best beans. Can a cup of coffee reveal the face of God? Can it become the holy grail of modern-day knights errant who brave hardship and peril in a relentless quest for perfection? Can it change the world? These questions are not rhetorical. When highly prized coffee beans sell at auction for $50, $100, or $150 a pound wholesale (and potentially twice that at retail), anything can happen. In God in a Cup, journalist and late-blooming adventurer Michaele Weissman treks into an exotic and paradoxical realm of specialty coffee where the successful traveler must be part passionate coffee connoisseur, part ambitious entrepreneur, part activist, and part Indiana Jones. Her guides on the journey are the nation’s most heralded coffee business hotshots: Counter Culture’s Peter Giuliano, Intelligentsia’s Geoff Watts, and Stumptown’s Duane Sorenson. With their obsessive standards and fiercely competitive baristas, these roasters are creating a new culture of coffee connoisseurship in America—a culture in which $10 lattes are both a purist’s pleasure and a way to improve the lives of third-world farmers. If you love a good cup of coffee—or a great adventure story—you’ll love this unprecedented up-close look at the people and passions behind today’s best beans. “Weissman illustrates how the origin, flavor compounds and socioeconomic impact of a cup of coffee are relevant now more than ever. . . . Tagging along behind the main characters in today’s specialty coffee scene, [she] travels from the exotic to the expected to artfully deconstruct the connoisseur’s cup of coffee.” —Publishers Weekly

To quote him, "I am as real to you as your capacity to receive me is, and your capacity is much greater than you can ever begin to imagine". But is it real? Or just a series of vivid dreams? That is for you, the reader, to decide. As Michael says, There is much more truth to so-called fantasy than people realize. So what is reality and what is fantasy?

Book Description
In my journey through life, I have studied basic questions about God. Along the way numerous people have asked me, "Is God real?" "How do I know the real God from false gods?" "Why did Jesus have to die to save us?" Many times, our modern world has over complicated things. It is often easy to give up when trying to sort through all the confusion. God is not a complex God. He made things simple. It is easy. Just ask. One day, I sat down and questioned, "If I knew nothing of God, what kind of questions would I want the answers to?" After making a list, I began to study and research each one. This book will take you on an adventure through God's Word, my personal experiences and studies as I found the answers. God has many ways of speaking to us. The Bible has all the information and is the number one source. God can use people. He can work through people in a church, a stranger on the street, or a close friend. He has ways to reply to our questions including books, and videos to name a few. As you will find in this book, He even used a donkey.

To seek, pursue, and fall in love with Jesus with radical abandon. Single Woman Mandy Hale shares with readers what can happen in their lives by praying this powerful prayer. She has shown women how important it is to be secure in singleness by being smart, strong, and independent. In this all new book, she will prompt readers to never settle and not miss out on the beauty that can be found in times of “waiting.” The Single Woman Says: “Whether you’re idling in stubborn sinfulness or walking in seeming never-ending singleness or living with any sort of waiting: Waiting for love, waiting for babies, waiting for marriage, waiting for a cure, or a miracle, or a sign, or for GOD . . . I hope my journey will make the wait a little easier and the uncertainty a little bit more beautiful.” Starting with relationships, but going beyond into areas like career, friendships, and life, Mandy will guide readers through what you can achieve if you look beyond your current circumstances, never settle for less than what God has for you, and find beauty in the waiting.

Book Description
A New York Times Notable Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2012 A bold approach to understanding the American evangelical experience from an anthropological and psychological perspective by one of the country's most prominent anthropologists. Through a series of intimate, illuminating interviews with various members of the Vineyard, an evangelical church with hundreds of congregations across the country, Tanya Luhrmann leaps into the heart of evangelical faith. Combined with scientific research that studies the effect that intensely practiced prayer can have on the mind, When God Talks Back examines how normal, sensible people—from college students to accountants to housewives, all functioning perfectly well within our society—can attest to having the signs and wonders of the supernatural become as quotidian and as ordinary as laundry. Astute, sensitive, and extraordinarily measured in its approach to the interface between science and religion, Luhrmann's book is sure to generate as much conversation as it will praise.
