U Turn In The Single Lane
$2.97
If any woman knows about heartache and poor choices in men, it is Amy Butler. Swept off her feet at the age of twenty-four by a handsome Christian businessman, her perfect life was shattered in the middle of planning a wedding. When the truth was exposed, she learned her beloved fiancee was living under a stolen identity and was wanted in four states for bank fraud. In the midst of helping the TBI catch the fugitive, Amy lost everything and was forced to move in with family. In a state of brokenness, she sought to put Band-Aids on her wounded heart in the form of more relationships. She found herself pregnant out of wedlock, and married the father against her own better judgment. After five years of marriage, and her husband’s four-year affair with alcohol and drugs, she divorced and became a single mom of two. But the heartache didn’t stop there. After a series of broken hearts from being deceived by men, she finally came to the end of herself and decided to take a different approach-a U-turn at God’s prompting. She spent the next few years walking through grace, healing, and forgiveness while discovering strength in Christ. She found total contentment in her single life, becoming whole in Christ. She no longer looked for love, but eventually God allowed love to find her. This book teaches women to find their God-given strength, walk through healing, dismantle negative perspectives, overcome rejection and loneliness, and become content in Christ while waiting for His best.

When Holidays Hurt
$14.99Find fullness of joy during the holidays-especially for the brokenhearted.
Divorce. Financial stress. Chronic illness. Losing a loved one. Experiencing any of these situations during the year is already difficult. But the holiday season, once joyful and happy, can heighten this pain even more. Author Bo Stern has spent the past two Christmases struggling to connect with the joy of the season. As she has watched her husband, Steve, struggle with terminal ALS, Bo has quietly felt her spirit for the season fade-and has noticed countless others suffering the same way.
Through stories and scriptures, Bo offers readers a way to redeem what can often become painful days-Thanksgiving, Christmas, birthdays and anniversaries, milestones such as weddings and graduations, and more. At the end of each devotion, Bo gently guides readers to engage with these holidays and special occasions in different ways that offer a tangible outlet for healing. At the heart of this message is that Christ came-to bring hope and healing to those who are hurting.
“Jesus didn’t come to cheer us up. He came into the shadowlands we call home to set us free. He came to untangle us from the despair that wraps itself around our joy and peace and purpose. It seems, then, that hopelessness is the very first qualification for receiving the bright hope of Christ’s coming. Perhaps you are exactly where you need to be to experience the miracle after all…”
