Out Of My Bone
$40.99The untold story of the woman who married C. S. Lewis and inspired the movie Shadowlands
When Joy Davidman died of cancer in 1960, C. S. Lewis, her husband of only four years, wrote one of the great twentieth-century classics about loss and grief. Who was the American woman about whom Lewis says in A Grief Observed, “It is incredible how much happiness, even how much gaiety, we sometimes had together after all hope was gone”? Who was this woman whose love story with Lewis became the play, and later the major movie, Shadowlands?
Although best known as Lewis’s wife, Joy Davidman was an accomplished writer in her own right, with several published works to her credit. Out of My Bone tells Davidman’s life story in her own words through her numerous letters — most never published before — and her autobiographical essay “The Longest Way Round.”
Gathered and expertly introduced by Don W. King, these letters reveal Davidman’s persistent search for truth, her curious, incisive mind (“lithe and quick and muscular as a leopard,” Lewis later said), and her arresting, sharply penetrating voice. They chronicle her journey from secular Judaism to atheism to Communism to Christianity and offer insightful glimpses into life — both literary and everyday — in the America and England of her time. Davidman also writes about the struggles of her earlier marriage to William Lindsay Gresham and of trying to reconcile her career goals with her life as mother of two sons. Most poignantly, perhaps, these letters expose Davidman’s mental, emotional, and spiritual state as she confronted the cancer that eventually took her life at age 45.
Moving and riveting, Out of My Bone reveals anew the singular woman whom C. S. Lewis deeply loved and who deeply influenced his later writings.

Rastafarians Uprising At Coral Gardens Jamaica
$20.61The Rastafarian’s uprising in Montego Bay, Jamaica on ‘Black Thursday’ April 11th 1963 is an indelible monument in the Rastafarian movement which is indigenous to Jamaica. Selbourne Reid, the author of this book, was a police officer and a member of the rifle group in the leading police party, escaped unhurt but some of his co-workers were seriously injured. He saw a man chopped to death within three to five (3Ft-5Ft) feet away as well as one of his co-worker seriously injured. He ran from the scene and while he was running he saw another of his co-worker being hacked to death. Selbourne could not help, as he had no ammunition for his rifle. This book is designed to satiate the reader who has a flare for humor. For example, The account of ‘A memorable lie’, or ‘The Obeah-man’ who stripped a young lady in a public place-in a bar-and anoint her nude body with some type of oil which he said would cause her to have an abortion.’ This man did other ludicrous acts and was subsequently arrested. There is also a question as to whether Inspector Fisher was saying ‘Where is Jimmy?’ even when he was being chopped by the Rastaman. Christian and ethical principles are highlighted in this book, as well as some lessons and techniques, which can be learned by some supervisors, public administrators and police or military leaders. Selbourne was employed in Law enforcement and Social work in Jamaica and the United States of America for over thirty-five years. He writes about certain incidents in his work experience. Selbourne Reid graduated with a BSc. Degree in Public Administration from of The University of The West Indies, Mona campus, Jamaica.

Grief To Grace

Windows Of Saint Joseph
$23.73Autism is a house without doors but sometimes a window is opened. For me that window was religion. Too early in my life I was blessed to perceive religion as it really is, and though in the very depth of my self I knew that “child-abuse” didn’t apply in this case, the images that Islam and the Inquisition evoke in me were almost too horrible to bear. In a word, I was terrified of religion. How little we know what a religious experience really is – even our own. Certainly, after two years of meetings and daily masses, there was no sense of reality that my mind could provide for the content of Catholic doctrines, thereby invalidating them. I had never really noticed what the rules of Catholicism were and what typical Catholics experienced. However far I fall short of their understanding, I think my real trouble was I didn’t have a theory of mind; thus, I concluded that everybody, including the priest who had to celebrate mass, experienced what I did. The theory of the mind runs very deep. It underscores the big words: the kinds of words that make consciousness possible: self, community, freedom itself. I have indeed become conscious of my freedom. How far down would I need to dig to discover the Risen Christ?

Washed By Fire
$20.61Washed by Fire is the third part of a 4-part bibliotherapy series. It follows Prelude to Holy Ghost Fire, and In the Fire. It is a true story of this Christian woman’s struggle to overcome her past through the blood of the lamb of Jesus Christ, to stand forgiven by Him and to worship the LORD Jesus Christ alone. After being deluded into thinking that she had to serve the god of Molech through abortion as a newborn church member in her second marriage, she found herself in the grip of Satan. She had to fight with all her might to stop serving the god of Baal Peor (pornography and domestic violence). The God of the Bible, the LORD Jesus Christ, seemed so far away. She could proclaim Him to others, but struggled to walk with Him herself. Not knowing the God of the scriptures, for years she served religious people who claimed to be Christians. When the blinders fell off her eyes and she “woke up,” she found that Jesus Christ really did love her, that Jesus Christ really did accept her back to the fold. She embraced her healing journey. Stopping to serve the god of experience and feelings and those who manipulated her was a fight. Satan doesn’t let go of his prizes easily. The losses in this life of hers have been tremendous. But she has found Christ. It is a story of hope, faith and salvation. Since the writing of this book, her beloved cat, Queen Esther Ebbie Puff Tail has passed away from cancer. Obadiah remains with her. Patricia has begun the Interphase One diet by Doug Kaufman, which is a no grains, sugar or caffeine diet as part of her healing journey. She continues to let the Lord lead her.

My Second Chance
$13.73It felt like a bad dream . . . but it wasn’t. God did not want me to live the life that I had been living. I was too stubborn to listen. I needed a wake-up call, and did I ever get one! God gave me what I needed to change my ways, though I never would have expected it. I fought my way through it all and got my life back. Not only did I get my life back, but I got a better one the second time around. I lost my health, my job, and I lost myself. Learn from my tragedy, and know that it can happen to you. God bless you as you are spiritually fed and begin to walk more closely with God. May you only become strengthened in your faith because of God’s precious love for you. Mathew – 22:37 – “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”

Bride Wore Black
$16.86Wholly original and authentic, The Bride Wore Black is a true story of some serious sin…and a Savior! “The tone may be ‘Sex in the City’ to start, but it’s a tale of total triumph in the end. I understand that at times it may read more like a fictional novel than reality, but trust me, there is no illusion in it. To me, fiction is a waste of time when real life issues are so relevant and riveting. Excerpt from book “We must never forget that sin will always take us further than we intend to go; keep us longer than we were planning to stay; and cost us more than we were prepared to pay,” says Author, Glenda Motsavage. The writing is a trio of serious life events [terminal illness, spiritual witchcraft, and a prison sentence] that were all transformed into opportunities for personal and spiritual growth. “A riveting piece of reading! Not only is it well done, but also screams out scores of issues that many people are dealing with today. I especially like the ‘walk’ through the various parts of Glenda’s life and how they all eventually lead to a saving knowledge of Christ; a must read for all.” Ronald B. Liples, Pastor/Christian Counselor

Complete Fenelon
$26.99The most engaging collection of the French mystics’ writings now available
Twenty-first century Christians are now discovering the wisdom of this controversial theologian and spiritual thinker. Fenelon showed how it was possible to have devotion and faith in the original Age of Reason. In many respects, rationality still rules today in religion and culture, and as a result, Fenelon speaks to modern Christians wanting deeper faith and a meaningful inner life.
His writings have never been as accessible as they are now in these lively new translations. The Complete Fenelon includes more than one hundred of Fenelon’s letters of spiritual counsel, as well as meditations on eighty-five other topics. Also translated here into English for the first time are Fenelon’s personal reflections on twenty-one seasons and holidays of the Christian year. An introduction from bestselling translator Robert J. Edmonson and in-depth recommended reading and bibliography make this the first place to start in any study of Francois Fenelon.
Franois Fenelon was a seventeenth-century French archbishop who rose to a position of influence in the court of Louis XIV. Amid the splendor and decadence of Versailles, Fenelon became a wise mentor to many members of the king’s court. Later exiled for political reasons, he set out to improve the lot of peasants of his diocese. His letters of counsel and spiritual meditations have found a wide audience for more than three centuries.

Gods Strange Work
$28.99Calvinist Baptist preacher William Miller (1782-1849) was the first prominent American popularizer of using biblical prophecy to determine a specific and imminent time for Christ’s return to earth. On October 22, 1844, he and his followers gathered to await a Second Coming that never came. Nonetheless, David Rowe argues, Miller was in many ways a mainstream, even typical figure of his time.
Reflecting Rowe’s meticulous research throughout, God’s Strange Work does more than tell one man’s remarkable story. It encapsulates the broader history of American Christianity in the time period and sets the stage for many significant later developments – the founding of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, the tenets of various well-known new religious movements, and even the enduring American fascination with end-times prophecy. Rowe rescues Miller from the fringes and places him where he rightly belongs – in the center of American religious history.

Madame Jeanne Guyon
$10.95JEANNE GUYON is Christianity’s best-known and most influential woman in church history. Her autobiography has moved the hearts of believers for three centuries. Even today, she is one of the greatest figures of French history.
Guyon is revered by both Protestants and Catholics as one of the greatest sources of help in a deeper walk with God. Few Christians have experienced the depths of prayer as profoundly as Jeanne-Marie Guyon (1648-1717), a beautiful, wealthy French woman whose prolific writings have remained a treasured legacy of the church.
Guyon’s influence reached the court of Louis XIV. Jealousy ensued, and she was imprisoned in the infamous Bastille. Indeed, for most of her life she suffered persecution and endured imprisonment at the hands of the church, primarily because she believed all Christians could have a rich life of prayer. Perhaps John Wesley summed it up best: “Guyon is the greatest Christian to rise since the first century.”
This edited, condensed, and updated edition of her autobiography–written from a lonely cell where she was imprisoned for her stand for Christ–reintroduces the power of a great woman of faith and the joy she found in the midst of grief and pain. THE REMARKABLE STORY OF ONE WOMAN’S HEAVEN-SENT RESOLVE TO GLORIFY GOD AMID DEBILITATING SUFFERING AND PERSECUTION
