Jennifer Ebenhack knows what it is to be broken down by circumstances. She and her husband Jarod had no idea their decision to adopt twins from Haiti would turn into eight years of life in that literal sun-scorched land. While those years of ministry involved joys and sorrows, life-threatening dangers and divine interventions, none of those years included any progress on their children's adoptions. But God saw it all. The exhaustion, anxiety, and especially the disintegration of all human hope in the wake of the 2010 Port-au-Prince earthquake. In a Sun-Scorched Land is a story of dead-ends turned to miracles; of desperation turned to peace. Though your story may differ, this is the story of all our lives: reaching the end of ourselves to find that God alone is our hope and the mover of mountains.

Three Boys, Three Cultures, One Will to Survive. 
 Lost and alone in the wilderness . . . where did they belong now? 
 Okot (pronounced "Oh-Coat") Deng knew no other world than the African savannah where his Dinka tribesmen lived a peaceful existence -- until he was captured and sold as a slave to the owner of a Virginia tobacco plantation. His hatred for white men and their God grows as he is punished and starved, until he knows he must be free or die. Can he find a home with other runaways in Upper Canada? 
 Chipagawana is the proud son of Onondaga Chief Thunder Arm. He lives for the day he will take his place beside his brothers as a brave of his tribe. He has learned to hate the white man, whose whiskey makes fools of the wisest braves and whose God-houses anger the Great Spirit. But then he is mauled by a bear and finds himself lost in the bush, alone and dying. If he is going to survive he has to make a decision . . . Is he willing to receive help from the enemy? 
 Paul Brentwood is the son of a circuit riding preacher who left England to bring God's Word to the Iroquois Tribe in Upper Canada. But Paul has a reason to hate, too. The Indians who massacred his best friend's family have now ambushed his father. He was raised in the bush so survival was no problem . . . if he can remain undetected by the Iroquois scouts as he finds his way home to get an answer to the burning question . . . Did his father make it? Is he still alive? 
 These three would never have met but for a strange twist of fate -- or is it the Hand of Providence? -- that forces them together in a way that changes their lives, and the lives of those around them, forever.

How can we walk in the faith that keeps us focused on God in the midst of the hard circumstances life never stops throwing in our path? Where do you find faith like that? Susan Yates takes readers on a journey of renewed understanding and vision to walk in the confidence of a God so much bigger than the challenges we often face. With Risky Faith you can move from defeat to victory, starting today.

Risky Faith: Becoming Brave Enough to Trust the God Who Is Bigger Than Your World

Yates, Susan Alexander

We know God wants to be our Father.  But how can we trust Him, if our own earthly example failed?  Many of us have known the opposite of heaven when it comes to our earthly fathers. Many of us have memories that should never have been made: memories of disappointment, anger, and even fear.  But that was never the way it was supposed to be.  In these 52 stories, Christy tells about her dad and how through him, she came to know the Father. Nobody is perfect, but there are some who are kind and loving.  Throughout this book, may you come to know the love of a father, and believe enough to place your life in God’s hands.  You can trust Him with your heart.

My Father's Hands: 52 reasons to trust God with your heart

Fitzwater, Christy

In One Devotional, acclaimed author Susan Yates helps you to focus on character traits of our amazing God. She says, "It is so easy for our lives to become about me and my stuff. When this happens we lose perspective and our joy begins to evaporate. God delights in revealing himself to us. If we begin to walk through each day focusing on Him and His character we will gain a healthier perspective."

One Devotional: One Word, One Verse, One Thought for One Hundred Days

My expectations of family life before I had kids were so different from the reality that I eventually faced with five children in seven years, including twins. I used to be critical of moms whose children had runny noses. Why don't their mothers wipe their faces? I would wonder. I'd stare at a child in public whose hair looked like it had not been brushed in a week or whose clothes did not match... And then I had kids!
