Featured Book: Hope’s Bakery by Sophie Mays

Leave a Comment

Hope Nolan is too busy for love, and that is just fine with her. Between her bakery and her six-year-old son, Rylan, her heart and her schedule remain full.

Besides, she knows full well the complications love can bring. One naive choice during her headstrong teenage years saw her facing more responsibility than a girl that age should face. Hope Nolan is strong though, and with the help of her mother, she manages to raise Rylan and run a thriving business in her hometown of Magnolia Harbor.

“The Wedding Cake Queen” they affectionately call her in any town within 20 miles of Magnolia Harbor, and not because she likes weddings. Her cake and cookie decorating skills are the talk of the town, and her blog where she displays her latest creations has twenty times as many followers as the population of Magnolia Harbor.

There’s only one problem, a handsome and well-traveled young chef is opening up a restaurant in the space across from Hope’s bakery, disrupting her satisfying and uncomplicated life. His tiramisu might even manage to steal some of her regular customers.

In the end, Hope will need to decide how she is going to handle this new addition to Main St. She may even learn that the most unexpected miracles happen when chooses to do what’s right for her son, her business, and her heart.

Featured Book: Radical Prayer: 9 Biblical Concepts That Will Forever Change the Way You Pray by Monte Kline

Leave a Comment

Bargain Book Promo This Week for $2.99

Why do you pray? To get “stuff” or to get God? For most Christians prayer is about asking God to change the world for their benefit. We pray for money, healing, direction in life, traveling safety and a host of other petitions with one thing in common – they are all for “me, me, me, me.”

What if prayer is something far different than presenting our “Christmas list” of desires to God? What if prayer is actually about coming to know God intimately and grow in our relationship with him? What if prayer is ultimately not about changing God, but changing us?

Radical change is required to experience the full, biblical meaning and purpose of prayer. Embracing the nine biblical prayer concepts of this book will forever change the way you pray.

Featured Book: Misdirect, a Novel of Spies, the Sahara, and Searching for God by Beverly Nault

Leave a Comment

A mission failure has confined CIA covert operative Eve Parker to desk duty and she’s left to pick up the pieces of her broken personal life. But when her daughter’s fiancé is taken hostage, Eve must return to the Middle East armed with rusty tradecraft, and dubious credibility shrouded in her peers’ skepticism. Will she get it together in time to thwart the biggest threat to America since 9/11, or will her old-fashioned ways cause her to fail again?

And if a suspected mole, a missing thumb drive, and a camel ride through the desert weren’t challenging enough, a Muslim teen with questions about God cause Eve to struggle with her own faith. As the most important assignment of her life draws near, events unfold to demonstrate that, particularly in espionage, things are not always as they seem.

Join Eve Parker as she confronts her past, a national threat, and a crisis of faith in this spy thriller layered with intrigue, suspense, and a surprise ending from an award-winning author reviewers call “a master storyteller.”

Featured Book: Hidden Thrones by Russ Scalzo

Leave a Comment

A new award winning series from author Russ Scalzo. A supernatural thriller. A titanic clash between good and evil.

Jack Bennett has an unusual gift. His coveted ability means he is the FBI’s newest hire, serving as a consultant for their new Paranormal Division.
The government is convinced we are not alone in this world. With invisible forces all around, agencies are seeking how to harness that power for their own uses. The mystery swirling around the unseen and unknown has caused much speculation. Some suppose lost souls are wandering the earth, others believe deceased loved ones never truly moved on, and still there are those who are convinced that aliens have infiltrated our world.

Jack Bennett knows better. He knows who and what these powers are. The ancient scriptures talk about a great evil that was conceived in the depths of eternity. There, a great war occurred in a place called Heaven. Lucifer, the ancient serpent, the evil dragon of folklore, was cast out and bound to the earth and confined to its surrounding atmosphere.

Could it be that the evil we see is inspired by a dark kingdom, a demonic spiritual force at war with the human race? Could these princes and rulers of darkness be influencing our world today? Jack Bennett knows this is the truth. He knows because he encounters them every day.

Follow Jack Bennett in the first of a five part series as he battles the realm of Hidden Thrones.

Praise for Hidden Thrones:
“Spirit-filled fiction in a political thriller, what a treat!” David Bergsland of Reality Calling.
“This book was great! Action and intrigue right from the beginning and with a bit of romance thrown in.”
“I loved this book! It was exciting and thought-provoking.”
“What a suspenseful Christian novel this is. It is very much in the category of Frank Peretti’s “This Present Darkness” novel.”

Featured Book: Mead Mountain by B.K. Dell

About Mead Mountain by B.K. Dell

Riley Ellison is in love.

World-famous Christian leader and bestselling author, Riley Ellison loves like a lit sparkler. His genuine affection for even the most wretched burns with scorching heat, brilliant colors and frenzied energy. It’s no wonder God chose him to orchestrate His miracle.

Pastor Ellison invites the press to join him in exactly two weeks, at which time he will tell Mead Mountain to move on live television, and in accordance with the promises revealed in Scripture, he claims it will move.

The lines are drawn and everyone must choose a side. If the mountain moves at Ellison’s command, no one could reasonably continue to doubt God’s existence, and America will enter into the next Great Awakening. If it does not move, pews will be emptied, believers will be shamed into silence, and the faithful will be made a laughingstock worldwide.

In the meantime, Ellison continues to do what he always does: attempt to shine Christ’s joy into a dark and broken world. He encounters a gun-toting drunk, a God-hating celebrity, and a desperate woman trying to save the life of her son. Will Ellison’s relentless pursuit to emulate Jesus act as a transforming force in the lives around him, or will the horrendous pain of this world cause Riley’s spark to finally burn out? And will any of it be enough to overcome the biases of the reporter assigned to his story?

It will take a miracle.

Mead Mountain is unlike any novel you’ve ever read. It’s when we’ve observed deep sorrow, that we can truly triumph in joy. When we understand our brokenness, then we can properly value His sacrifice. Trust me, if you knew the hopelessness He delivered me from, then you’d understand the intensity of my worship! Mead Mountain is intense. The light is always brightest with the first step out of darkness. Mead Mountain will make you squint, make you cry, and leave you breathless.
