Book Description
This extraordinary book was written by a married couple, Gary and Yvonne Betts. What makes it so remarkable is that one of the pair, Yvonne, actually passed away before the writing process began. Gary and Yvonne are kindred spirits, which is to say they are eternally linked to one another, and have lived many lifetimes in each other’s company. After Yvonne died from liver cancer in this most recent life together, her spirit returned to Gary, who had been cultivating his exceptional abilities to communicate with spirits. They have been sharing a unique existence ever since, raising a large spirit family together. Their children—whom Gary and Yvonne believe will be their kids in their next living life—are all the spirits of victims of murder at the hands of relatives, often their fathers. They have been entrusted to Gary and Yvonne’s care because of this couple’s special sensitivity to their between-worlds plights. For individuals with a curiosity about spirits and ghosts, this book is a must-read. In it, Gary shares the secrets of this post-corporeal existence as shared with him by Yvonne, whose death has put her in a position to provide unique insight from the other side. Where much of the popular culture exploring this topic is speculative, this book offers a rare, first-hand account facilitated by Yvonne’s continued participation in Gary’s life. As such, From My Heart and Her Hand offers readers an unprecedented understanding of what it means to die and to live among the world of spirits.

Book Description
In October 1810 a twenty-year-old girl in the quiet New England town of Bradford wrote the following words in her journal: 'If nothing in providence appears to prevent, I must spend my days in a heathen land. I am a creature of God, and he has un undoubted right to do with me, as seems good in his sight...He has my heart in his hands, and when I am called to face danger, to pass through scenes of terror and distress, he can inspire me with fortitude, and enable me to trust in him. Jesus is faithful; his promises are precious. Were it not for these considerations, I should sink down with despair. Ann Hasseltine had received a proposal of marriage from Adoniram Judson, who was shortly to leave for Asia as one of America's first overseas missionaries. And thus commenced one of the great dramas of church history--a saga of love, courage, suffering and perseverance.

Book Description
Courtney Carver shows us the power of simplicity to improve our health, build more meaningful relationships, and relieve stress in our professional and personal lives. We are often on a quest for more—we give in to pressure every day to work more, own more, and do more. For Carver, this constant striving had to come to a stop when she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Stress was like gasoline on the fire of symptoms, and it became clear that she needed to root out the physical and psychological clutter that were the source of her debt and discontent. In this book, she shows us how to pursue practical minimalism so we can create more with less—more space, more time, and even more love. Carver invites us to look at the big picture, discover what's most important to us, and reclaim lightness and ease by getting rid of all the excess things.
