Book Description
An inspiring collection of thoughts to take with us on the paths we travel in life. For all the roads we choose to travel, and even those we don't, Fred Rogers has an observation, a story, some insights to share. Whether you're facing graduation, a new job, a new baby, marriage, any change in your life--expected or not--the wisdom that Mister Rogers offers can contribute mightily to the grace with which you handle the change. With sections titled Who You Are Right Now, Loving and Being Loved, and Guided Drift, Fred addresses the scope of human transitions. It all comes down to knowing we're valuable, and that we're worthy of that value. As Fred would say, "You don't have to be anything more than who you are right now." In her foreword, Joanne Rogers shares the Fred she knew. With stories from their life together, the joys as well as the struggles, Joanne shows how Fred looked at life as a journey--with the ups and downs and in-betweens.

Book Description
This is the account of two men who believe that we are created for deep, meaningful, and emotionally intimate relationships. The authors have found these relationships with their wives, and they are models for their children. They experience this kind of relationship with each other. They share how vital these relationships are through their non-profit: Someone To Tell It To. They create safe environments for people to share the stories of their lives openly and unashamedly. They encourage others to find safe people in their lives to foster relationships that provide true support, unconditional love, and grace. This book shares the authors stories and the stories of others who are seeking meaning and purpose in their lives, especially when faced with challenges and questions. Someone To Tell It To may remind us that we are not alone in our fears, or in our feelings of inadequacy and uncertainty. Readers may be motivated to create more vital connections in their lives, connections that can be life-giving and soul-enriching, that can bring peace in the dark seasons of our lives. Having someone to tell it to, as author Miles Franklin writes, is one of the fundamental needs of human beings.

Book Description
Tapestries uncovers the unique patterns that you weave throughout life. At a time of immense interest in biography, here is a unique set of keys to understanding the pattern and rhythms of your life. The unfolding phases of life are presented as the 'warp' of personal growth. You are invited to consider the 'shuttle' of the threads you use as the 'weft' of your life story. These threads include your temperament, gender, love, family, ethnicity, birth order, and developing relationships. A vivid picture of adult growth is presented. You can follow twelve very different people and their stories as they go through each life phase and wonder what will happen next. You can consider how you would respond to the choices they face. Life's dilemmas are explored: career versus parenting and choices related to old age. This opens up options: which roads to take in life and encouragement to reflect.

Book Description
This book of poems and stories is a collection written by three women of one family. It was put together to honor of our belated but loved mother. When my son was young and started writing poetry, Mom said that one day she’d write too so we could do a book together since three was a holy number. She left her writings, my son stopped writing, but my sister stepped in so Mom’s dream could be realized. This is a book written by three. We pray those who read this book remember you’re never alone because God loves you in spite of yourself.

Book Description
This book was originally intended to be used as a daily devotional; however, it is not a typical devotional book. Rather, it is a book of personal stories and Biblical truths learned over 56 years of marriage and ministry. In Genesis 28:10-22, there is a story where the children of Israel piled stones and called them ‘stones of remembrance.’ These were intended as a memorial to the Lord, marking places where God supernaturally intervened in their lives. The stories in this book are Dick and Jeri’s ‘stones of remembrance,’ showing how God led them, provided for them, protected them and intervened in supernatural ways. The stories are shared in the hopes of inspiring and encouraging every reader to believe that God will do the same for them. God is no respecter of persons, for what He has done for one, He will do for others.

Book Description
Often, we hear people say that all religions should be forbidden, because they only bring misery. These reactions are understandable when we see or hear the daily news. But where does all this misery come from? Is it because former religious leaders pursued self-interest too much, instead of the Christian faith from the source? Or is it our indifferent attitude, that offers negative forces a free path? To find the answer, we must go back to our source of life, to the reason for our earthly existence. It teaches us, that what we call religion, is the development of a spiritual consciousness, to elevate the human soul, the very self. And that the words of our Creator do not stop on the last page of the bible. He has sent us His New Revelations to encourage us and to find our way home again, to the House of our Eternal Loving Father. Whoever reads the book may realize how important it is to ask yourself life questions. How you can give substance to your earthly existence. That this book may help you on your way to find your purpose in your life’s journey.
