Sacred Parenting: How Raising Children Shapes Our Souls

Author(s): Gary Thomas
Publisher: Zondervan
Price: $3.99       (Ends June 30)

Parenting is a school for spiritual formation, says author Gary Thomas, and our children are our teachers. The journey of caring for, rearing, training, and loving our children profoundly alters us forever…even when the journey is sometimes a rough one.

Sacred Parenting is unlike any other parenting book on the market. This is not a “how-to” book that teaches readers the ways to discipline their kids or help them achieve their full potential. Instead of a discussion about how parents change their children, Sacred Parenting turns the tables and demonstrates how God uses children to change their parents.

Stepping beyond the overly-tilled soil of method books, parents can learn a whole new side of parenting. They’ll be encouraged by stories that tell how other parents handled the challenges and difficulties of being a parent—and how  their children transformed their relationship with God. (more…)

November Facebook Giveaways (Prize every day)

Starting November 1st we’re having a daily giveaway exclusive for our Facebook followers which will last the entire month. So if you’re not connected with us head on over to our page and click “like”.

Here is how the daily giveaway works: every day we share two posts (a link to the daily deals in the AM and a daily recap at night). If the two posts for any one day have a combined total of likes, shares, and/or comments that reach a specific number, that will unlock the giveaway for the day.

Here are the numbers and prizes:

• 100 likes, shares, or comments means we will gift one person who participated with an e-book of their choice that is currently active on Gospel eBooks.
• 250 likes, shares, or comments means we will gift one person who participated with an e-book of their choice on Amazon that is $10 or less.
• 500 likes, shares, or comments means we will gift three people who participated with an e-book of their choice on Amazon that is $10 or less.

So if our AM post receives 35 likes, 5 comments, 10 shares and our PM post (for the same day) receives 25 likes, 10 comments, 15 shares (100 total over 2 posts) then that will unlock the first giveaway and one person will receive an e-book of their choice from our website. So make sure you “like” us (and we recommend enabling notifications) and then in November make sure you interact every day by liking, commenting, and/or sharing.

SPONSORED LISTING

Author(s): Brady Cook
Price: $2.99      

Jesus’ story of the Prodigal Son set in a modern day context.

John and Carl Jenkins are inseparable.

From the day that Carl was born, John has always been right by his son’s side. He’s been Carl’s biggest cheerleader, guiding him in life and even working together in John’s local business.

One day, a bitter feud divides the two men and threatens to keep them apart forever. Carl drifts farther away from his father and deeper into a life he never anticipated…and never wanted. John’s world is left shattered, praying daily for his son to come home.

“I’ll Always Wait” is a modern adaptation of Jesus’ famous story from Luke 15. All the familiar themes are there, such as greed, abandonment, mercy, and hope. It’s a story that helps us understand the depth of God’s love for each one of us.

Check out “I’ll Always Wait,” the next book in Brady Cook’s “Parable Series.” Prayerfully, we’ll all begin to see the road back home.

Another Day, Another Dali (Serena Jones Mysteries Book #2)

Author(s): Sandra Orchard
Publisher: Revell
Price: $0.99       (May 23 – May 28)

A Fast-Paced, Keep-You-Guessing Whodunit with a Dash of Romance

When a valuable Salvador Dali painting belonging to her grandmother’s friend is mysteriously replaced by a forgery, FBI Special Agent Serena Jones is called in to investigate. Serena hopes finding the thief will also mean finally measuring up to Nana’s expectations. But when the evidence points to members of the owner’s own household, it becomes increasingly clear that Serena won’t be winning any popularity contests.

The Dali isn’t the only painting that’s fallen prey to the forgery-replacing thief, raising the specter of a sophisticated theft ring–one with links to dirty cops, an aspiring young artist, and the unsolved murder of Serena’s grandfather.

With plenty of edge-of-your-seat moments, Another Day, Another Dali gives the plucky Serena Jones–and readers–a new high-stakes case to crack.
