HearthLand: Always a Valley (Episode 13)
Loved this book could not put it down. Love the story line can’t wait to hear more about Annie. This is a must read book and author my all time favorite
Taking a step back in time–deliberately.
After a trip to Walden Farm and an afternoon talking to Chad and Willow Tesdall, Ralph Myner caught a vision for what life could be like. Against the advice of his nephew, Ralph sinks his entire retirement account into an incredibly risky venture.
Harlan Walker thinks his uncle has gone crazy. With the project in motion, all he can do is try to find people to invest their time, money, and even their lives into Ralph’s project before the man ends up broke and without means to survive.
People come from all walks of life as they embrace a new world–the world of HearthLand.
Episode 13: Despite winter’s attempts to destroy, discourage, and distract Ralph from his dream, Ralph excitedly moves forward with his rapidly expanding dreams. The big investor gala nears, and with it Valentine’s Day brings unexpected joys and troubles. But when a blizzard drives Ralph from his home, a little soul searching leaves him floundering.

Taking Christian Moral Thought Seriously (B&H Studies in Christian Ethics)
his is an excellent work, discussing thoughtfully most of today’s important moral issues. Particularly compelling (and bold) are the essays by J. Noland. I’m recommending this to everyone I know.
The Death Penalty, Environmentalism, Public Reason, Voting, Abortion. Where does Christian faith belong in discussions about these issues?
In Taking Christian Moral Thought Seriously, editor Jeremy A. Evans establishes that separation of church and state is not a principle of the United States Constitution (or any other founding document). Thus, there should be a social interest in not hindering any religious person’s full participation in the American marketplace of ideas. As such, Evans addresses readers from both the Christian and non-Christian communities through the related scholarship here, knowing either side’s failure to consider one’s well-prepared thoughts in science, politics, and education undermines the very idea of seeking the truth.
Topics include:
* The death penalty
* John Rawls’ theory of public reason
* Whether or not a non-voting stance is permissible for Christians
* Religious disagreement and its impact on the justification of religious beliefs
* How the current models of scientific explanation are not incompatible with religious beliefs
* Creation care—what is our responsibility to the environment?
* Are theologians and philosophers missing the point on the abortion problem?
Acclaim for Taking Christian Moral Thought Seriously:
“This is a long-overdue book. Although there are scores of accessible books written by Christian philosophers addressing traditional topics, such as God’s existence, the problem of evil, and the miraculous, few have broached the areas of ethics, public reason and science while critically and respectfully engaging the most influential philosophers writing on these subjects. Professor Evans has managed to put together such a book. It is a model of clarity without sacrificing philosophical rigor. It is the sort of book that should be in the hands of any Christian desiring to engage the wider culture in an informed and thoughtful manner.”
Francis J. Beckwith
Professor of Philosophy and Church-State Studies, Baylor University
“This text is a great place to get ‘up to speed on aspects of crucial issues that we too seldom ever hear being discussed in evangelical circles.”
Gary R. Habermas
Distinguished Research Professor, Liberty University & Theological Seminary
“Taking Christian Moral Thought Seriously truly models what the title itself expresses–a serious-minded, Christianly engagement of important moral and cultural themes. Without exception, each contributor writes with scholarly rigor, insight, and creativity. This book well illustrates how practical, robust, and explanatorily rich the Christian faith is.”
Paul Copan
Professor and Pledger Family Chair of Philosophy and Ethics, Palm Beach Atlantic University

Better than Beauty: A Guide to Charm
This book was originally published in 1938 and then again in 2002, but 90%-95% of this book’s knowledge can still be applied today, proving that class never goes out of style. It is a fun read that reminds you of this fact with nice real life examples. You can obviously tell when some info may not apply. But most of the info is basic manner/etiquette type stuff.

This book is so chalked full of powerful messages that give fantastic understanding to why there is suffering in God’s world, that I feel there is not a soul on earth who would not be able to take away something helpful from this book.

After hearing great things about Jenny B. Jones’ novels, and especially There You’ll Find Me, I was excited to finally read this one. The book starts off really good and had me interested within the first few chapters.
Grief brought Finley to Ireland. Love will lead her home.
Finley Sinclair is not your typical eighteen-year-old. She’s witty, tough, and driven. With an upcoming interview at the Manhattan music conservatory, Finley needs to compose her audition piece. But her creativity disappeared with the death of her older brother, Will.
She decides to study abroad in Ireland so she can follow Will’s travel journal. It’s the place he felt closest to God, and she’s hopeful being there will help her make peace over losing him. So she agrees to an exchange program and boards the plane.
Beckett Rush, teen heartthrob and Hollywood bad boy, is flying to Ireland to finish filming his latest vampire movie. On the flight, he meets Finley. She’s the one girl who seems immune to his charm. Undeterred, Beckett convinces her to be his assistant in exchange for his help as a tour guide.
Once in Ireland, Finley starts to break down. The loss of her brother and the pressure of school, her audition, and whatever it is that is happening between her and Beckett, leads her to a new and dangerous vice. When is God going to show up for her in this emerald paradise?
Then she experiences something that radically changes her perspective on life. Could it be God convincing her that everything she’s been looking for has been with her all along?

Destiny Junction: Behind Every Door is a Life, and Behind Every Life is a Destiny
I really enjoyed reading this well-written book. There are sad times and good times but all are “real” in that they could happen to you or in your community. When tragedy strikes the town, how do the people react? Be inspired. Salvation is a very prevalent theme. Some may think the book preachy but the author makes no apology for this and weaves a great story in between the message. EXCELLENT!
Through one young lady’s obedient Christian life and the work of the Holy Spirit subsequent to her murder, the lives of many people in the town of Destiny Junction are transformed.
This is their story…a story about life…and what it means…or what it ought to mean.
