Bumbleweed Field
$26.23
What should parents do when their children refuse to get along? All the arguing and fighting, bickering and yelling can almost tear a family apart! Jim Carter wrote this book for his pre-teen nieces nearly twenty years ago. After changing the names to protect the “innocent”, this charming short story marshals all the elements of growing up as siblings and charts a course to becoming friends as well as sisters. Jim flies for a major airline and knows how critical the proper course is for a safe and happy arrival! He and his wife Susan live in Northern Virginia. Bible study, horses and travel fill their “empty nest” and they happily wing their way to see grown children in Texas and South Carolina.
Local artist Cortney Matz adds a colorful and simple beauty to the Bumbleweed Field’s pages. Cortney was in high school when she added her rich and textured style of water colors to The Bumbleweed Field. Her father, Dan was in the same men’s Bible study with Jim Carter and her Dad’s glowing endorsement sealed the venture. Today Cortney is a producer and communications specialists for CDR Productions and 1Voice Films in Northern Virginia. Her company’s most recent release is “For the Glory”. Look for more projects from Cortney’s fertile imagination in the near future.

Contagious Faith : Discover Your Natural Style For Sharing Jesus With Other
$18.99As a follower of Christ you know–at least deep down–that you were created for more than just loving your family, building your career, or attending weekly church services. We were made to share God’s love with others in ways that can impact their lives and redirect their eternities.
But few of us are naturally comfortable doing this. We wrestle with internal fears, a lack of preparation, and the sense that reaching out to others might force us to act like someone we’re not. We want to encourage people spiritually, but we don’t want to get weird or overbearing in the process. We need to be equipped to talk to people about Jesus in ways that fit our God-given personalities, and we would benefit greatly from an infusion of fresh inspiration and practical ideas.
In Contagious Faith, bestselling author and teacher Mark Mittelberg introduces you to the five Contagious Faith Styles–Friendship-Building, Selfless-Serving, Story-Sharing, Reason-Giving, and Truth-Telling–and helps you discover which of these approaches (or combination of them) will enable you to naturally share your faith in Jesus with the people around you. He also explains in a down-to-earth fashion several key skills that will help you communicate your faith in infectious ways, illustrating his message with real-life accounts of ordinary believers who applied these principles for extraordinary impact.
Mark Mittelberg was the primary author of the celebrated Becoming a Contagious Christian course, through which he helped nearly two million people around the world learn to communicate their faith. Now, with clear teaching, compelling stories, and inspiring motivation, his new Contagious Faith book will help you share the good news of Jesus effectively–even in our increasingly resistant culture.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99In this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
