My eyes are blurred, my brain is mush. My hands begin to tremble. I fell for those deceitful words: 'Easy to assemble.'" -Christmas Unwrapped: Lighthearted Humor to Get You Through the Holidays If the holidays conjure up images of maxed-out credit card bills, mile-long mall lines, or that lamp from Aunt Jane that graces your abode only when she comes to visit, this colorful keepsake provides rhyming redemption. More About Christmas Unwrapped Rhyme master Scott Emmons approaches Christmas with a joke and a grin by offering 47 original poems, including: * Dear Santa, Toys get broken. Candy's cheap. Pets take effort. Fruit won't keep. Candles smell. Clothes might clash. Games are boring. Please send cash. Love, Mindy * Grandma's Gift Which present came from Grandma? It isn't hard to see. The gift wrap is the same she's used since 1943. Book attributes include a stocking-friendly trim size and ribbon marker, along with four-color art and photography throughout.

Book Description
Women who have maintained their sexual purity often ask, “Is it really that important for me to wait until I get married?” Meanwhile, single women who have been sexually active mourn the loss of their innocence, wishing they could somehow start again. Women want to protect the purity that is God’s gift to them, and they also long to be loved. This volatile combination makes them vulnerable to temptation. That is why it is vital that women know not only that God wants them to wait, but why God wants them to do so. They need solid reasons, conviction, and a strategy that will prepare them to live out their sexual purity as God intends. Filled with powerful true stories of hope and healing, Gift-Wrapped by God provides compelling emotional and spiritual reasons for choosing God’s path of sexual purity, as well as practical help for following it. Whether women have held onto their sexual innocence, have become prematurely sexually active, or have had their purity taken by force, they can express and fulfill their desire to come to their wedding day--and live out every day–-sexually pure and whole.

Book Description
Heeding technology's cry to “get connected” can result in overloaded circuits of the mind. Frenetic connections cause frazzled lives. Unwrapping Wonder: Finding Hope in the Gift of Nature will restore the reader's soul as they step outside to cultivate a connection with creation and, in the process, deepen their relationship with the Creator.This delightful mix of natural history, human story and God's glory found in everyday nature is based on Job's words: “But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you ... or let the fish of the sea inform you.” Each chapter focuses on one natural object such as the bee, the barnacle, the tiniest seed.By peering within the ordinary, we can learn to see details which reveal extraordinary wonder. As we unwrap the gift, we discover more of nature, God, and ourselves, one wonder at a time.Unwrapping Wonder is for active men and women and families who enjoy the outdoors or reading about nature, and for those needing hope in a hectic world. Each chapter offers: --The Wonder Introduced: through anecdote, natural history, or life story.--The Wonder Unwrapped: zooming in to see hidden details, and explained in everyday terms.--The Wonder Applied: Practical, spiritual lessons for daily living.--Promise of Hope: Relevant Scripture to inspire hope.--“Wondercise”: A hands-on nature activity designed to awaken heart, mind, and soul to the wonder of creation and give praise to the Creator.
