In Day by Day In Ephesians, the reader is supplied with ninety-six thought-provoking devotionals. Most of the devotionals are one page in length and may also be used for personal or group Bible study. A distinctive feature of this devotional/Bible study guide is that all the entries deal sequentially with every verse in the epistle to the Ephesians. Consequently, the devotional/studies flow with Paul’s Holy Spirit-inspired thoughts. The emphasis on each devotional/study revolve s around the truths the author believes Paul is endeavoring to communicate to his readers. Each devotional concludes with a Thought for the Day. This feature is designed to encourage the reader to reflect upon the biblical truth discussed that day and how it can be practically applied to the reader’s life. It is the author’s desire that the reader will become more familiar with the epistle to the Ephesian. Also, the author trusts the reader will “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18) as the devotionals are read and reflected upon thoughtfully and prayerfully.

The nine women who authored this book are part of a Christian writers group in the Foothills of Western North Carolina. In this volume, they seek to use their writing skills to glorify God and to show how He has made Himself real to them. They have combined the ancient scriptures of the Old Testament and their unique life experiences to offer encouragement for women today through a year’s worth of weekly devotions. Stepping Stones, a journaling page with thought prompts, completes the week and allows the reader to transition from the author’s thoughts to their own reflections.

The minute a baby is born he or she begins to learn . . . Who are my parents? How do I get their attention? How do I make them understand me? Learning is a lifelong process and it can be FUN. You can learn through puzzles and word searches and creative expression. You can learn by listening and then by practicing. You can learn about any subject you wish, but this particular workbook is intended to help you to understand some interesting things about the English language. Just what is the difference between a palindrome and an anagram? Who knew that there was a specific order to use when your description of a noun includes multiple adjectives? When does punctuation go inside the quotation marks, and when does it go outside? Do you have any idea what a toponym is? On page 3 you will find an exercise about "Nym-ble Speech," which identifies some familiar and some unfamiliar "nym" words. You probably know what an acronym is, but have you ever heard of a bacronym? We talk to one another and write words on paper in some form every day. Wouldn't it be fun if our speech could be considered "nimble?" nimble [nim-buh l] adjective, nimbler, nimblest. 1. quick and light in movement; moving with ease; agile; active; rapid: nimble feet. 2. quick to understand, think, devise, etc.: a nimble mind. 3. cleverly contrived: a story with a nimble plot.

Twice Chosen, by Nina Locke, is a family memoir of being adopted twice—first chosen by God and later chosen by adoptive parents. Her story reveals how those two acts impacted her life. She often wondered, “Where would I be if a personal God had not revealed Himself to me in His providential ways?” This powerful memoir weaves excerpts from personal journals and generational stories stretching across three continents. Twice Chosen is a journey of two searches: first to fill Nina’s inner emptiness and secondly to find her adopted sister—after a separation of fifty years. The story continues as Nina encounters life’s challenges of loss, disappointment, and her husband’s Alzheimer’s.
