Book Description
The truths of the past are often the hardest to face. When Grace Stewart?s fianc Stephen leaves Halifax in 1937 to pursue his dream of becoming an archaeologist in Greece, neither of them expect that war will soon engulf the world, keeping them apart for nearly ten years. As Stephen gets caught up in the resistance movement on the island of Crete, Grace immerses herself in the war effort at home, held up by her faith and praying for his safe return. Though her prayers are eventually answered and she and Stephen are finally reunited, he is never able to speak of the things he saw in Greece. After his sudden death in 1967, however, Grace discovers among his effects the journal he kept during that dark time? a journal which allows her to, at long last, piece together the unimaginable story of the man she thought she knew.

Book Description
The year 1973 marked a very low point in the life of Vance Havner, America¿s most quoted preacher. It was the year his beloved wife and companion of thirty-three years was struck down by a fatal and dreaded disease which distorted her lovely features and rendered her a helpless invalid. She departed this life to be forever with the Lord on September 2, 1973. Though I Walk Through the Valley is the chronicle of Vance Havner¿s passage through the darkest valley of his life, the record of how his faith in God triumphed in the crucible of suffering and bereavement. Don¿t expect these pages to be filled with time-worn clichés or pat answers. The book is written from the vantage point of one who has kept vigil alongside the hospital bed of his dying wife. People say things like, ¿I¿m so sorry you¿ve lost your wife.¿ Havner responds: ¿Lost is not the right word for Christians divided by death. You haven¿t lost anything when you know where it is!¿ People also say, ¿I know just how you feel,¿ to which Havner replies: ¿People often try to sympathize, but you have to go through this to know what it is like. You cannot share by imagination or observation. You have been there or you haven¿t.¿ ¿Now that she¿s gone, do the best you can.¿ Havner responds: ¿I want to do the best that Christ can do in me, exceedingly abundant above all I can ask or think.¿

Book Description
From the Editor.... In preparing this book for print it occurred to me that I really couldn't call myself the "Author." Several years ago, I sat at my computer typing the words that I felt God was speaking to me, to my heart. And from that, this book began to have a life of its own. I have only written what He, my Lord has prompted me to write. Even the title of this book was given to me by God. So, the only credit I can take for this labor of Love is that I was obedient to His voice. This journey has been slow because there have been times when I walked my own path and in doing so I ceased to be attuned to the Holy Spirit. I have discovered that if we want to hear God and if we want Him to use us to bless others we must know God, we must seek Him, and we must walk with Him. And if we do those things He will always help us stay on the path He has chosen for us.

Book Description
Yea though I Walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death had to be written. It is a heart-wrenching account of a womans road through her own personal anguish and back, one that could be written only by the person who experienced it. It describes how she lived through the death of her infant daughter, a fire that totally destroyed her home and its contents, the suicide of her 21-year-old son, the killing of her 25-year-old son, the subsequent trauma, called Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) that followed, and her return to stability. Such a listing doesnt capture Chriss journey. Though not a professional writer, she has allowed us to enter her world, with all of its twists and turns, moments of sadness and despair, and finally, the peace that comes from emerging on the other side. She has a guileless honesty that wont let you go. No doubt thousands of people have shared some of Chriss experiences few, if any, to her degreebut fewer still have her ability to capture that experience in a way that makes her experiences their own.

Book Description
A riveting reading experience, Though I Walk Through the Valley is the suspense-filled story of Julie Lerette's struggle with dark forces that threaten her and her family when they buy an old fixer-upper house. The evil the family encounters comes disguised in many forms. Julie learns first-hand to hold fast to the power of God's promises; trusting that He will lead those who call upon Him through their dark valleys and onto the sunlit mountains of His grace and triumph. Although the story is based on many true-life events, some literary license has been taken. (A video of this book is also available.)

Book Description
Walking the painful path of divorce leaves us feeling isolated, despaired, and doubtful of any happiness and peace again. While the narratives shared in this book are theirs alone, there are great commonalities. Each is full of pain; but even in the valley of messy, broken, and death-filled relationships, there is relief, healing, and hope in every story. You will find hopeful reassurance in and through the raging storms and valleys of shattered relationships. No matter the wounds, Tim Scott reminds us there is a healing balm that sustains us if we will make the choice to turn to Christ in our brokenness. We have every reason to hope. --Terry W. Pollard, pastoral coach and mentor (Des Moines, Iowa) The weaving of the experience of different people of both genders and ages along with strong biblical reference and relevance creates an undeniable picture of the human condition. In reading this book, God will stretch your thinking and sensitize your heart to the heart of this painful reality. A must-read for anyone interested in representing the real Jesus to a broken world. --Pastor Ernest Mullins (Raleigh, North Carolina) As a pastor and child of divorce, I found Though I Walk through the Valley a heartfelt, gut-wrenching, and hopeful story of walking through the valley of divorce. This book is a great resource for those who find themselves in the heartbreaking situation of a broken dream and marriage. God's grace will walk with you every step of the way. --Pastor Gina Colburn, BreakPointe Community Church (Overland Park, Kansas) I believe that Though I Walk through the Valley will be a very helpful resource, both to those who have gone through a divorce or who are on the verge of going into one. Most of us in the church are unaware of the opportunity for ministry among those we know who are going through this valley. This book will be a great resource in helping the church understand the struggles of an individual going through a divorce. --Pastor Shawn DeOrnellis (Milton, Washington) Sharing many people's stories makes Though I Walk through the Valley very relatable. I believe God is going to use this book to minister to many. --Pastor Dan Menefee, Crossroads Wesleyan Church (Rapid City, South Dakota)
