Carpenters Son : A Novel
$22.00
Brooklyn Sterling is an award-winning journalist who makes her living exposing frauds, crooked politicians, and con-men in the pages of the Boston Globe newspaper. Her latest assignment has her investigating a series of so-called miracles that are happening in the city. A devout atheist who has suffered a hurt and harbors a bitter resentment toward God, Brooklyn is hot on the trail of a man behind the miracles, prepared to lay bare this fraud and reveal the truth; that God, faith, and eternal life are all a childish fiction.
When a boy is brought back to life and a blind man suddenly sees, Brooklyn confronts her own crisis of faith, facing the hard truth that God, Jesus and the stories she assumed were merely fairytales, might all actually be true.
During this journey she meets a family, broken by the loss of a young man at war and struggling to make sense of the world’s suffering. She also meets the mysterious man living above this family’s garage, a carpenter’s son, who knows Brooklyn’s heart and thoughts, and makes her an offer no atheist could refuse. Spend a day with Jesus and ask all the hard questions that have haunted humankind for centuries.
What happens next opens Brooklyn’s eyes to a truth too bright to be denied, showing her that God has a role and plan for each of us and we are never alone in this journey, especially in the darkest of times. The Carpenter’s Son gives the reader a chance to walk with Christ and see the world through his eyes. You’ll find yourself laughing, crying, and unable to put it down. Most importantly, it will renew your faith in God and each other.

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.
