In relation to its significance to the Christian faith, Easter is perhaps the most under-celebrated holiday of the year. Yet this momentous day has the potential not only to delight your family--but to transform it. Beyond the spun-sugar eggs, beyond the brightly colored baskets overflowing with plastic green grass and tasty treats, lies history's most earth-shattering and revolutionary event. An event that once ushered in a new way of life, and could very well do so for your family again-- This year, honor the true meaning of Easter--and the new beginnings associated with this vital holiday--through the spiritually enriching, family-affirming stories found in Easter in My Heart.

For nearly a decade, readers around the world have been exhorted, entertained, amazed, and moved by the heartwarming stories found in Dr. Joe Wheeler's Christmas in My Heart series. Now, Dr. Wheeler--a scholar of what he calls the "Golden Age of Judeo-Christian Stories (1870s-1950s)--has compiled perhaps the greatest, and most moving, collection of Easter stories ever published. May your spirit be blessed and freshly awakened through this collection of inspirational and nostalgic stories that perfectly captures the spirit of Easter: hope realized, faith fulfilled, and life both gloriously and freely redeemed.

Book Description
"There could be no better title for a book by Sheri Easter than Hear My Heart. For more than twenty years Bill and I have had the privilege of watching this lady's heart guide her through both the painful and joyful places that inevitably come with life, parenthood, traveling, aging parents and physical battles. She has allowed Christ do in her life what He longs to do in all our lives. She has allowed Him to define and refine her heart at every turn. We are so pleased that the world now has a chance to hear from her beautiful heart." Gloria GaitherHear My Heart is a collection of writings from singer-songwriter, Sheri Easter. Sometimes in life words seem superficial, shallow and empty. We struggle to put our feelings into words that convey an honest representation of the heart. By embracing the quiet moments, we hear what our heart cries in the darkness of a loved one's death, a battle with breast cancer or caring for an aging parent suffering from Parkinson's disease. We hear the shouts of triumph of wedding bells, anniversaries, and the celebrations of life. We hear the heart.Sheri is a wife and mother of three children. She is a two-time Grammy nominated gospel artist, winner of six Dove Awards, and breast cancer survivor. She and her husband, Jeff, both come from acclaimed musical families and have traveled and sang over 26 years now as a couple. Sheri has a Masters in Business Leadership and resides in her hometown of Lincolnton, Georgia.

Book Description
Mothering is messy. Our joy and hope in raising children doesn’t change the reality that being a mom can be frustrating, stressful, and tiring. But just as God is using us to shape our children, God is using our children and motherhood to shape us. In The Better Mom, author Ruth Schwenk, herself a mother of four children, encourages us with the good news that there is more to being a mom than the extremes of striving for perfection or simply embracing the mess. We don’t need to settle for surviving our kids’ childhood. We can grow through it. With refreshing and heartfelt honesty Ruth emboldens moms to: Find freedom and walk confidently in purpose Create a God-honoring home environment Overcome unhealthy and destructive emotions such as anger, anxiety, and more Avoid glorifying the mess of mom-ing or idolizing perfection Cultivate life-giving friendships At the heart of The Better Mom is the message that Jesus calls us to live not a weary life, but a worthy life. We don’t have to settle for either being apathetic or struggling to be perfect. Both visions of motherhood go too far. Ruth offers a better option. She says, “It’s okay to come as we are, but what we’re called to do and be is far too important to stay there! The way to becoming a better mom starts not with what we are doing, but with who God is inviting us to become."
