The principles that governed his choices and ultimately led to his triumph, serve as a road map for you and me to navigate our own pain.

Dream House takes its readers on a room-to-room tour beginning in the kitchen and finishing in the garage. Each room gives a description of the problem or need this room represents, followed by a solution based upon biblical principles. Some of the issues we deal with are: character development, purpose in parenting, honor becoming a habit, the family calendar, vital information our children need, discipline, etc. At the end of each chapter, there are questions for individuals or small groups to answer and discuss. Many parents begin raising their children without the necessary blueprints or tools to build a healthy and happy home. As a result, their home is unstable and unhealthy, resulting in frustration and despair. The purpose of this book is to provide blueprints of biblical truths and practical insights that will help parents construct a Dream House of their own. Those who read Dream House, will: *Understand the importance of modeling character, godly passion, and a healthy marriage to their children. *Be able to pass on biblical principals that will position their children to succeed in life. *Learn effective ways to communicate love, acceptance, and hope to their children, with practical examples that are parent friendly. Dream House will also describe what a healthy home looks like, provide specific principles that will enable parents to succeed, as well as encourage parents through the building process of their Dream House.

Few people wish to live an unremarkable life. Some have settled for unremarkable living due to a variety of circumstances and choices, but few intentionally set out for a journey that isn't memorable. If your intended journey is headed nowhere and you are satisfied with that destination, Project Nehemiah is not for you. However, if you believe God has designed you for something more, then you must pick up a copy of this book. This isn't a theological examination of a Biblical text, but rather, a careful study of the principles that guided one man's project from inception to rapid completion. Nehemiah's story not only teaches us about God's power to work through His children, it also teaches us some principles, that, when applied, can help anyone achieve ginormous Kingdom dreams for God's glory. Project Nehemiah is an easy read. It's stories are thoughtful and humorous, and the true-life events of modern-day Nehemiahs is inspirational. The practical questions at the end of each chapter will help you map out your own plan for fulfilling God-sized dreams in your life. Project Nehemiah is not a how-to guide for managing projects; however, it is a how-to guide for managing the big dreams God has given each of us. Whether you're building walls in Jerusalem (like Nehemiah), helping orphans in Ethiopia (like Cherrie, whose story is told in the book) or feeding the homeless in your community (like my 7 year old son a few years ago), Project Nehemiah will offer you counsel and direction for seeing your work completed. If you have ever thought to yourself, "Man, I would love to do [X] for God..." but you weren't sure where to start, pick up a copy of this book. If you have ever felt like your life has hit a plateau and you need a kick in the britches, pick up a copy of this book. If you have ever felt like God has put something remarkable in your life and you know it's time to move, pick up this book. It's time to take your God-designed life to next level. By the grace of God, let Project Nehemiah help you get there.

Project Nehemiah: Making Your Life Truly Remarkable

Sara Weaver was a teenager when her little brother was shot and killed by a U.S. Marshal. One day later, her mother was killed right in front of her by an FBI sniper. She survived an eleven-day siege, hunkered down in a cabin on a mountain top in Naples, Idaho with her little sisters, her injured father, and injured adopted brother. But walking down that mountain to safety was only the beginning. In the years that followed, she was hounded by news media and reporters. People created their own versions of the event, each presenting their own spin, their own angle, and their own social or political views on those tragic days. But this book is Sara’s story, written in her own words. It is the story of Ruby Ridge from the inside, from the perspective of the 16-year-old girl who experienced the nightmare firsthand. However, it isn’t just about the pain and hopelessness that shadowed the next ten years as she tried to move on. Sara's story continues with the transformation in her heart that changed the course of her life. This book is about forgiving even the most horrible and personal of crimes. It’s about finding hope, about finding joy and freedom from the only source that can offer it in this sometimes broken world—her Savior, Jesus Christ.

Mel Walker (veteran youth ministry specialist and author) believes that one of the leading reasons so many high school graduates are walking away from active involvement in church is because traditional youth ministry has isolated teenagers from other generations. He is convinced that it is essential for churches to proactively connect the generations -- and he has written this book to explain how to effectively and practically make those connections. This is a must-read book for pastors, youth pastors, youth workers, parents, and others interested in a long-term view of helping teenagers grow up and go on for God. Inter-Generational Youth Ministry is based on Biblical principles and contains a wealth of research and useful steps for churches anywhere. Readers will clearly see Mel's balanced approach to church ministry -- strategic youth ministry that successfully connects the generations in the church.

"Magnificent Mark: Unlock your awesomeness and make your teenage years remarkable" is a book written to challenge teenagers. Danny Ray, a world-class magician and seasoned communicator, shares heart-warming, humorous and relatable stories from his own youth that will help students engage the concepts of this book. Most of all, however, he teaches a life-changing biblical truth that a teenager's awesomeness isn't found in trying to be like someone else, but rather, in fully embracing the person that God made them to be.

Disappointment is something everyone has faced: the loss of a job. An in ability to become pregnant. The sudden death of a friend or family member. A failed test. A broken promise. The game-winning shot that doesn't go in. Three words from the doctor: "You've got cancer." While all of us have faced it, not all of us have learned to manage the reality of disappointment in our lives. Kristi Walker has taken on this task, and in this book she is presenting a biblical perspective on a topic with which everyone is familiar. And while this book was written with women in mind, men will do well to put into practice the principles Kristi writes about. Kristi does a great job of combining powerful personal stories with rich Scriptural content, making "Disappointment" an excellent resource for anyone going through tough times. There is only one person that will never disappoint us, and Kristi does a fantastic job of pointing the reader back to Him, with truth wrapped in understanding.

In "Know Your Enemy," Kori Trierweiler calls Christians into the war room to examine enemy forces and develop a battle plan for spiritual victory. The bible speaks extensively of a three-fold conflict which engages Christians -- the world, the flesh and the devil. These opponents know us well. If we are to walk in the abundant life Jesus offers, we must not ignore tactics used by the enemy to steal, kill and destroy."Know Your Enemy" is s biblical, practical and thoughtful examination of the daily battles Christians face. Jesus secured victory at the Cross and through His resurrections! But make no mistake: the battle still rages and Christians need to be well equipped to fight.
