The everyday pressures and struggles women of all ages face and the feeling of not measuring up can be overwhelming. You might be left wondering: Is this all there is? A constant striving for self-acceptance and human approval? Or are you made for something more? Allie Marie Smith has walked the familiar road of self-doubt and depression. Like a companion on the journey, she wants you to join her in discovering a better life—the life you’ve been made for. God planned your days before you were born and He longs for you to discover the life He created you to live—here on earth and in eternity.

Book Description
Patrice Gopo grew up in Anchorage, Alaska, the child of Jamaican immigrants who had little experience being black in America. From her white Sunday school classes as a child, to her early days of marriage in South Africa, to a new home in the American South with a husband from another land, Patrice’s life is a testament to the challenges and beauty of the world we each live in, a world in which cultures overlap every day. In All the Colors We Will See, Patrice seamlessly moves across borders of space and time to create vivid portraits of how the reality of being different affects her quest to belong. In this poetic and often courageous collection of essays, Patrice examines the complexities of identity in our turbulent yet hopeful time of intersecting heritages. As she digs beneath the layers of immigration questions and race relations, Patrice also turns her voice to themes such as marriage and divorce, the societal beauty standards we hold, and the intricacies of living out our faith. With an eloquence born of pain and longing, Patrice’s reflections guide us as we consider our own journeys toward belonging, challenging us to wonder if the very differences dividing us might bring us together after all.

She never imagined that she would share her story—a story that would expose such a private secret! But after receiving a persistent prompting from the Holy Spirit, she had no choice but to be obedient. That revelation empowered her to reveal her incredible healing journey that took place years ago—a journey of confusion, pain, revelation, and victory! In Wonderfully Made, author Neva Ann Cairco reveals her life’s journey and exposes the core cause for abortion. Her story is written to help heal the broken and wounded—with God’s direction. For Neva, discovering the underlying rationale for that decision was the beginning step to obtain her release from abortion’s guilt and shame. God used her struggles to reveal his love and mercy. Neva brings to light the potency of the forgiveness found in Jesus Christ. That very same power is available to help others struggling with this heart breaking experience. But how do we get there? Neva takes a loving yet no-nonsense look at abortion. She shows us how we can receive God’s forgiveness. She walks us through her life’s path of innocence, deception, confusion, heartbreak, revelation, and release. She understands that many lives have been deeply impacted as a result of that single decision. Living with abortion’s guilt and shame is a killer, but you can come alive and discover the joy and freedom of forgiveness. The children are waiting.
