Fairy tales were never this tough. Men in Tights never looked so good. At least that’s Pepper Marsh’s first impression when she attends the International Jousting Competition at London, Ontario’s Renaissance Faire. An unemployed and unattached software engineer, Pepper has had enough of the computer geeks in her dating pool. She yearns for a man of yore. A man not afraid to stare death in the face and laugh at it. A man with a big lance…. Pepper’s cousin promised to find her a knight in shining armor, on the condition that Pepper walk around in wench get-up. With her mind on her embarrassingly revealing bustier, Pepper promptly steps into the path of an oncoming steed…and is rescued by sexy Englishman Walker McPhail. Once the wild man of jousting, Walker has let a brush with death keep him out of the ring. Though his emotions are clad in an almost impenetrable armor, Pepper finds Walker infuriatingly sexy—and is about to go medieval on his heart…
How can you be an artist and a Christian? All too often, Christians are encouraged to push their values aside in order to "make it" as an artist. How can we be a light in dark places without dimming our own? How do we authentically portray humanity through our art while upholding the dignity of the human person? As an extension of the first book, Godway Devotionals: Vol. 2 offers daily reflections to help artists grapple with these questions. It was ultimately written to affirm artists in their ultimate calling and purpose""to transform the industry, rather than being transformed by it. All it takes is a willingness to step out in faith and initiate godly conversations. Based on the countless miracles and blessings I've experienced when choosing to do things God's way, I'm convinced that putting Him first is the key to achieving success in any area of life. God brought us into the arts. Let's bring them back to Him.
Transform Your Quiet Time Today’s world is all about now—a fast-moving, high-speed, on-demand lifestyle. But has this pace changed how we study the Bible?

Live: Rest, reflect, or act as you discover how to take the Word with you throughout the day. Features include: An introduction to the lectio divina style of study Guided devotions with a day for reflection every week A topical index for finding issues that impact your life Numbered devotions so you can start anytime and never fall behind

Proven nutrition strategies for optimizing health and combating specific diseases – written for the advanced practice nurse As scientific evidence continues to emerge showing the underlying role nutrition and diet play in preventing and treating common health issues such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer, there's renewed emphasis by healthcare providers on delivering individualized nutrition prescriptions to patients to improve health outcomes.
