The United States has more people locked up in jails, prisons, and detention centers than any other country in the history of the world. Mass incarceration has become a lucrative industry, and the criminal justice system is plagued with bias and unjust practices. And the church has unwittingly contributed to the problem.
Dominique Gilliard explores the history and foundation of mass incarceration, examining Christianity’s role in its evolution and expansion. He then shows how Christians can pursue justice that restores and reconciles, offering creative solutions and highlighting innovative interventions.
The church has the power to help transform our criminal justice system. Discover how you can participate in the restorative justice needed to bring authentic rehabilitation, lasting transformation, and healthy reintegration to this broken system.

Kendig Ratchets Up the Action in Her New Suspense Series!
Four years after a tragic mission decimated his career and his team, Cole “Tox” Russell is persona non grata to the United States. And that’s fine–he just wants to be left alone. But when a dormant, centuries-old disease is unleashed, Tox is lured back into action.
Partnered with FBI agent Kasey Cortes, Tox has to pull together a team to begin a globe-spanning search for answers–and a cure. As their quest leads them from continent to continent, it slowly becomes clear they’re not just fighting a plague–but battling against an ancient secret society whose true goals remain hidden.
With time running out and opposition growing on every side, the key to everything may rest in an antique codex, the Crown of Jerusalem–but will Tox and his team be able to trust each other enough to break this century-spanning conspiracy of silence?

Price: $2.99
This lesser known work by John Owen is related to his works ‘The Mortification of Sin’, ‘Spiritual-Mindedness’, ‘On Indwelling Sin’, and ‘Temptation’. It specializes in examining whether a life is lived under the dominion of sin or grace, whether one is a sinner who has grace active and fighting in their life or one who merely makes a show of grace but is really under the bondage of sin.

Dating in modern times can be confusing and seem more complicated than ever. How do you date and get close to someone while keeping God first? When meeting someone new, there are many questions and scenarios to be thought about. Should he pursue first? How often should you spend time together? When should you start attending church as a couple? Should you serve in the same area? When into the relationship should you hold hands or kiss? What do social media boundaries look like?
While these specific questions are not directly answered in the Bible, it is comforting to know six couples who kept God first in the relationship and yet each had different answers to these questions and more.
Waiting While Dating interviews six Christian couples who had different backgrounds and situations, some had been previously married and some had not. The couples span from meeting in their twenties, to thirties and forties. Each couple opens up and gives personal insight on what attracted them to their current spouse, how they held each other accountable, what leadership from the man looked like in the relationship, what patience looked like from the female perspective and many more intimate details. Whether you’re heading out on that next first date, are pondering about your current relationship, or whether you’re in the engagement phase, let Waiting While Dating open up some questions to help you keep God first while on your journey to finding your forever.

Julie Klassen Is the Gold Standard for Inspirational Regency Fiction
Sophie Dupont, daughter of a portrait painter, assists her father in his studio, keeping her own artwork out of sight. She often walks the cliffside path along the north Devon coast, popular with artists and poets. It’s where she met the handsome Wesley Overtree, the first man to tell her she’s beautiful.
Captain Stephen Overtree is accustomed to taking on his brother’s neglected duties. Home on leave, he’s sent to find Wesley. Knowing his brother rented a cottage from a fellow painter, he travels to Devonshire and meets Miss Dupont, the painter’s daughter. He’s startled to recognize her from a miniature portrait he carries with him–one of Wesley’s discarded works. But his happiness plummets when he realizes Wesley has left her with child and sailed away to Italy in search of a new muse. (more…)

Author(s): Captain Scotty Smiley with Doug Crandall
Publisher: Howard Books
Price: $0.99
Hope Unseen challenges readers to question their doubts, not their beliefs, and depend upon God no matter what—the inspiring true story of “blind” faith.
A nervous glance from a man in a parked car. Muted instincts from a soldier on patrol. Violent destruction followed by total darkness. Two weeks later, Scotty Smiley woke up in Walter Reed Army Medical Center, helpless . . . and blind.
Blindness became Scotty’s journey of supreme testing. As he lay helpless in the hospital, Captain Smiley resented the theft of his dreams—becoming a CEO, a Delta Force operator, or a four-star general. (more…)

Imagine the scenarios:
a CEO successfully negotiates a corporate merger, avoiding hundreds of layoffs in the process
an artist completes a mosaic for public display at a bank, showcasing neighborhood heroes
a contractor creates a work-release program in cooperation with a local prison, growing the business and seeing countless former inmates turn their lives around
a high-school principal graduates 20 percent more students than the previous year, and the school’s average scores go up by a similar percentage
Now imagine a parade in the streets for each event. That’s the vision of Proverbs 11:10, in which the tsaddiqim―the people who see everything they have as gifts from God to be stewarded for his purposes―pursue their vocation with an eye to the greater good. (more…)
