How will she choose, knowing all she must sacrifice?

Libby has been given a powerful gift: to live one life in 1774 Colonial Williamsburg and the other in 1914 Gilded Age New York City. When she falls asleep in one life, she wakes up in the other. While she’s the same person at her core in both times, she’s leading two vastly different lives.

In Colonial Williamsburg, Libby is a public printer for the House of Burgesses and the Royal Governor, trying to provide for her family and support the Patriot cause. The man she loves, Henry Montgomery, has his own secrets. As the revolution draws near, both their lives–and any hope of love–are put in jeopardy.

A man with no hope.
A God who knows the key to their deepest need lies in each other…

Holy Excavation: Unearthing Seven Treasures in the Heidelberg Catechism

Unearthing Seven Treasures in the Heidelberg Catechism

Frederick III secured the services of a twenty-eight year old theology professor from Heidelberg University named Zacharias Ursinus and a twenty-six year old preacher named Casper Olevianus to pen a catechism that would help disciple young people. This catechism would also be a tool for pastors and help them shepherd the flock. It has proven to be one of the most influential catechisms in the history of the church.

The Heidelberg Catechism, published in 1563, is warm, thought-provoking, and easy to understand. But most important, it is biblical. The authors’ careful and systematic approach to God’s word has encouraged discipleship that is both profound and authentic.

Publisher: Christian Focus Publications
Price: $2.99       (June 6-7)

Friendship is a need that touches the deepest parts of the human soul. This is especially true in ministry. It is a need that is not simply rooted in enjoyment and companionship, but in the necessity to care well of one’s soul and survive a long–term ministry. This book seeks to persuade every modern pastor of the essential need of friendship. And not just any friendship, but a close, personal, intimate, and sacrificial pastor–to–pastor friendship that regularly turns each other’s gaze to Jesus.

Friends and pastors, Michael Haykin, Brian Croft and James Carroll examine portraits of friendship in scripture and church history, before exhorting readers to modern pastoral friendships.

One in a Million: Journey to Your Promised Land

Author(s): Priscilla Shirer
Publisher: B&H Books
Price: $4.99       (July 8 Only)

The Egyptians in Exodus 1 were intent on enslaving the Israelites, wearing them down so that God’s chosen people would become disillusioned and not live up to their destiny. Of the original two million Israelites who received God’s invitation to enter the Promised Land, only two actually entered it!

Similarly, modern day Christians often hear and understand the promises of God each Sunday morning at church but then rarely choose to experience them in everyday life. In One in a Million, Bible teacher Priscilla Shirer invites us to change that pattern for good, living beyond our circumstances and expecting to see God move in miraculous ways day after day. Without a doubt, we can find and follow God’s purpose for our journey. We can make it to the Promised Land!
