For most of us, our days are typically filled with joy and relative peace. But what happens when we experience the unexpected and our seemingly perfect world gets buffeted by the storms of life? Do we cave in under pressure, or do we stand firm in our faith and beliefs and patiently wait for the storm to pass? The First Storm is about one womans journey from the brink of the abyss during one of the most horrific storms of her life. This is a book about love, faith, hope, heartbreak, and family. Aubrey Jordan represents all of us who are traveling through this sometimes perilous journey called life.

In the Gospels, we often read of Jesus telling his disciples to travel to the “other side” of the Sea of Galilee. What we don’t often realize is what this other side represented. It was the region of the Decapolis, where many pagan religions were practiced. The disciples, under Jewish law, would have been considered unclean even to step foot there. In this six-session video Bible study, Kathie Lee Gifford and Joanne Moody reveal how Jesus broke through social barriers and reached those on the “other side” whom society had abandoned. Through the stories of the Demoniac, Samaritan Woman, Prodigal Son, four friends of the paralyzed man, and Cornelius and Peter, you will discover the incredible lengths to which God will go to reach those who are lonely, lost, and left behind. You will be challenged to follow Jesus’ example and daily go to the other side for those who need his love. Each session includes clips from The Way oratorios, featuring Kathie Lee Gifford and other well-known personalities, that bring the story of Scripture to life with contemporary orchestral arrangements, powerful narration, and stunning visuals.

I Pledge is well written, taking the reader on a unique journey through the painful Vietnam years. Kathie Lee, a young woman in the military, presents a fascinating story through the eyes of a small-town girl forced to grow up in a hurry. As Kathie's perceptions of honor, duty, and national interest are challenged, the reader is held captive. I Pledge is the first account I have seen which addresses those years effectively from a female perspective. Governor Jay Hammond, State of Alaska's two term Governor. He was a great encouragement to me in writing this novel before his passing. I Pledge is a wholesome, touching reading set in a serious era of America's history – the Vietnam War. It is carefully detailed, fast moving and even humorous. It also conveys values that will see people through both national and personal crises. Many will appreciate and benefit from I Pledge. Franklin Graham, President of the Billy Graham Evangelical Association and Samaritan's Purse Kathie Lee's book is a mind stimulating adventure of the time she spent in the military and the events she noted during the Vietnam War. I Pledge made me reflect on my time in the U.S. Marine Corps boot camp during 1964 and my combat tours of duty in Vietnam during 1967, 68, 69 and 70. It reminded me of the good times I spent with my comrades-in-arms and our everlasting friendships, and the bad times of having to experience the tragedy of a war-torn country, Vietnam. Butch Meriwether, U.S.M.C. Gunnery Sergeant, Retired In more than 20 years of friendship we have heard many stories from Kathie Lee about her experiences in the military, specifically the Vietnam era. We were in the first generation who sat around the dinner table and watched the daily televised unfolding of a war we didn't understand. Hearing about the war from the perspective of veterans who have a passion for their country and for our military has truly been an eye-opening privilege. Perhaps no other era of veterans has dealt with so much controversy and so little honor. As educators, we feel I Pledge is a ‘must read' for teachers and students to get an a accurate understanding of the Vietnam War period, and the sacrifices made by so many.

Catwalk A Feline Odyssey" is a cat fiction book by Kathie Freeman. This is the story of a young, comfort-loving tabby cat who suddenly finds herself adrift in a big and sometimes dangerous world. Tiger begins her life as one of five kittens in an "accidental" litter, and is eventually adopted by a spoiled young woman, Beth, and her new husband, Sam. Showered with love and attention, Tiger is totally content in her happy home. Then trouble strikes in the form of Donna, the couple's new baby. Feeling neglected and more than a little jealous, Tiger misbehaves and is soon relegated to being an outdoor cat. When Tiger herself becomes pregnant, Beth insists that the cat be disposed of, so Sam drops her off at a nearby industrial park. Alone, and with her babies due any minute, Tiger is forced to seek shelter in an old warehouse. Two kittens are born, and for the next few weeks Tiger must hunt every night in a nearby field to feed herself and her babies. When the workers find them, they accept and care for the little family. On a warm spring afternoon, Tiger wanders out to the loading dock and sees an untended van parked with its cargo door open. She slips inside to inspect the contents and is trapped. Unable to make herself heard, Tiger is carried along to an uncertain destination. Her odyssey ultimately takes her halfway across the continent, and brings her in contact with such diverse characters as a Cajun fisherman, a game warden and his wife, a trio of hoboes, and a Mexican-American family. She is befriended by many, abused by a few, but her indomitable spirit always carries her through. Her struggle for survival and her search for home and family is a story animal lovers of all ages will want to read and share. This engaging, true-to-life story will strike a note of recognition with anyone who has ever been "owned" by a cat. Tiger doesn't solve any murders or save anyone's life, but she is guaranteed to get under your skin. Suitable for adults and all but the youngest children.

New York Times bestselling author Kathie Lee Gifford reveals heartwarming, entertaining conversations between people and personalities who both agree and disagree about who Jesus is, his role throughout history, and his presence in our lives today. For decades Kathie Lee has had deep conversations about her faith with anyone who is interested in talking about it. What she discovered early on is most people are very willing to talk about Jesus: atheists, agnostics, Scientologists, Jews, broken-hearted Catholics, confused Baptists, Pentecostals, Sikhs, Buddhists, and Hindus alike. While some of the people Kathie Lee has spoken with do not share her belief that Jesus is the Messiah—as prophesied for centuries by prophets in the Hebrew scriptures—they nonetheless have a universal fascination with Him. This singular man who lived more than two thousand years ago, and never traveled more than one hundred miles from where He was born, managed to change the entire world. Even the way we delineate history (BC/AD) comes from His short thirty-three years of life. In The Jesus I Know, Kathie Lee shares cherished conversations that she’s had with others who find Jesus to be an ancient historical figure who somehow continues to be an undeniably magnetic, relevant presence in the modern world. Those conversations include actors like Kristin Chenoweth and Cynthia Garrett, with stories of Craig Ferguson and Kevin Costner, newsmakers and news personalities like Kris Jenner, Megyn Kelly, Jason Kennedy, and Janice Dean, performers like Chynna Phillips Baldwin, Brian Welch, Jimmie Allen, and Jimmy Wayne, hitmakers like Louis York and David Pomeranz, as well as those coming from other faith traditions. Using Kathie Lee’s favorite Scripture passages as scaffolding, these thought-provoking exchanges will bring His teachings to life before your very eyes.

Explore the interwoven lives of King Herod and Mary, Mother of Jesus as New York Times bestselling author Kathie Lee Gifford brings these biblical figures into a new light. Follow Herod from boyhood as he strives and fails throughout his life to become a beloved king. Walk in the steps of Mary of Nazareth as she navigates the repercussions of Herod's deadly obsession. Delve into the complex history of Herod the Great—his rise to power and ultimate fall in pursuit to be the "King of the Jews." Under a flourishing yet tumultuous background of Jerusalem, consider Mary of Nazareth's place under Herod's rule and the promise of a Messiah to free her people. Kathie Lee Gifford with Bryan M. Litfin, Ph.D. deftly weave a truthful historical narrative full of accurate details and sweeping prose that ushers in the true King and glorifies God's powerful plan to bring a savior into the world through unlikely means. A coda between the authors, full of honest revelation and insightful meaning, follows each chapter for added in-depth reading. The first installment in the Ancient Evil, Living Hope series, Herod and Mary begins with the tragic life of King Herod—Christianity's first true persecutor. As an impressionable boy, he is forever marked by the raw power of Rome. Throughout the course of Herod's career, he gains power, fame, and riches beyond belief. Yet murderous intrigues stalk this man—and infect his own dark soul. Under the rule of King Herod, Jerusalem becomes a prominent city of wealth and prosperity, but Mary saw the struggle of her people under a tyrant. Like all Jewish women, she knew the promises of Torah and longed for a deliverer. But no one could have prepared her for what the angel of God revealed: that the Messiah wouldn't arrive with the blaring of trumpets, the clash of arms, or the fanfare of a mighty host. He would arrive as an infant within her own womb. The light of the world was born in a cave: not a king who maims and destroys, but the gentle King of the Jews. This riveting narrative nonfiction work reveals deep insight to how Herod came to power, how corruption and an ancient evil threatened the stability of a nation, and how a teenage Mary was called to traverse these obstacles to bring the Savior, Jesus, our living hope, into the world.

God sees you in every situation in life. In the Bible, we read that Hagar gave God the name El Roi, “the God who sees,” when she recognized that the Lord had seen her in her plight. In our lives, we often wonder if God sees us when trials feel endless, or problems resurface, or once-defeated illnesses return again to impact us. These moments make us question if God sees us and if he truly cares. In this six-session video Bible study, Kathie Lee Gifford and Joanne Moody delve into the lives of five people in the Bible who, like us, wondered if God saw them in their distress. Through the stories of Hagar, Ruth, Boaz, David, and Mary of Magdala, you will discover that even in the darkest times, God constantly watches over you. He has promised to never abandon you, and he empowers you to fulfill the purpose that he has for your life.
