Undivided is a book specifically written for Christians who desire to live for Christ without any reservation. The book details a biblical plan for what God intended the Christian life to truly be about. When we became Christians, we made the conscious choice to follow God with every aspect of our lives. That decision to follow Christ should be nurtured and protected to keep the world from drawing our hearts away from God. Author Rick Calloway challenges Christians to live with an undivided heart and loyalty toward God. Undivided gives clear biblical principles and a road map for keeping our hearts pure toward God. The book is detailed and specific regarding Gods desire that we live with undivided hearts toward him. It also provides a look at how we are to approach our faith, our family, our finances, and the entirety of our lives in relation to Gods plan for our life. Undivided will inspire you to raise the standard of what your Christian life should be about. The book also will give you insight and hope into a better way to live our lives. The book establishes that the main desire of every Christian should be, as Matthew 22:37 says, to love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. More than anything, Follow the Leader provides great hope and encouragement for Christians to know that God has great plans in store for them if they will be intentional in committing their lives to him.

Glimpses of God's Grace in the Hospital Room If you've ever spent time in a hospital, you know that it can be a place of struggles and hardships. These hardships aren't limited to physical problems; often when our bodies are in pain, our spiritual lives can suffer too. Former trauma surgeon Dr. Kathryn Butler experienced this firsthand as she walked alongside patients, colleagues, and friends through various illnesses and aching loss. In Glimmers of Grace, Butler draws from this experience to guide believers through the deep questions of God's trustworthiness in the midst of suffering. Blending memoir and devotional reflections, Butler interweaves her own stories of grace with narratives from Scripture to reveal how God's steadfast love endures even in times of great affliction.
