With more than 200,000 copies sold, Diamonds in the Dust has become a devotional favorite. Joni shows us precious jewels of biblical truth that lie scattered amidst the gravel of life’s dusty road.“The book you hold in your hands is my treasure trove of diamond chips I’ve collected over the years,” says Joni. “I’ve carefully selected favorite gems, ones I’ve often held to the light, turned this way and that to admire their beauty, diamonds that have made me rich in faith and wealthy in hope.”These 366 meditations uncover a wealth of promise, of eternal truths waiting to transform the events of our lives into facets that catch and reflect God’s glory. Written from the perspective of a woman who traverses life in a wheelchair, this book wipes away the surface grit of suffering and circumstances to reveal the radiant hope that each of us can claim.Diamonds in the Dust takes theology and gives it flesh, breath, and emotion. With eloquence, Joni draws from her own trials and triumphs to enrich us all with the wisdom of Scripture. But she’s not the only one whose everyday life holds such potential. “Look down at your feet,” Joni writes. “The path sparkles. God has placed diamonds in the dust of your road too!”

“She’s a pretty wildflower destined for my brother's vase. I'll make her mine, even if how I do it will make flowers wilt.” A DARK FRENCH MAFIA ROMANCE Men like us, we see things. We do things, things that make us unfeeling. That's the price of power and money, of living la belle vie and running the French mafia. Then she came along like a pretty wildflower pushing through the cracks on a dirty pavement - fragile yet resilient, a breath of beauty among the filth. She was supposed to be just another job, a nameless person I was to pluck from her life and hand to my brother, nothing but a pawn in the gamble of our diamond business. There's a psychological label for men like us. We lack empathy and guilt. We do things to have what we want, things that make flowers wilt.

The powerful true story of how one woman turned outback dust into a diamond empire. Within minutes of landing in Kununurra, Frauke Bolten had made up her mind to get on a plane back home to Germany. It was 1981 and the dusty frontier town was no place for a woman. However, Frauke stayed, determined to help her husband carve out a new life farming. Tragedy struck just three years later when Friedrich took his own life and she was left to raise their family alone. Twenty-six years after she sold her first necklace off the back porch, Kimberley Fine Diamonds in Kununurra is now home to one of the world’s largest collections of Argyle pink diamonds, with a client list that includes Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. Frauke is credited for not only pioneering an industry, but for putting the tiny outback town and its precious diamonds on the map. A Diamond in the Dust is a tale of love and loss, hardship and heartache, but ultimately the inspiring story of how a young girl from Germany overcame tragedy to pioneer a diamond empire in one of the most unforgiving terrains on earth.

Dana Hutton thought her life was perfect. She was very wealthy and engaged to marry a famous movie star. She was envied everywhere she went; everywhere, that is, except for the small and sleepy Midwestern town of Riverdale. It was here that she was stranded while on her way west to plan her wedding. Being a lady of high society accustomed to city life, she refused to have anything to do with the unsophisticated farmers that lived in the rural town. She shunned them and their advice, getting herself into a few predicaments in which only they could help her out. Even when she ridiculed and snubbed them, they still helped her. They still cared about her. Why was that? Even when she finally got out of the town, she was still wondering what made the townspeople so different. Why were they so caring? Her journey most certainly doesn't end there. She finds out what overall makes the difference in people's hearts, and why one sleepy little town can draw like a magnet and change the course of a person's life, forever.

Over the last few years, there has been a growing realization among Indians that their life's savings, the bulk of which are parked in physical assets like real estate and gold, are unlikely to help them generate sufficient returns to fund their financial goals, including retirement. At the same time, many have lost their hard-earned money trying to invest in financial assets, including debt and equities. Such losses have occurred due to many reasons, such as corporate frauds, weak business models and misallocation of capital by the companies in whose shares unsuspecting investors parked their savings. What options do Indian savers then have to invest in, and build their wealth? Diamonds in the Dust offers Indian savers a simple, yet highly effective, investment technique to identify clean, well-managed Indian companies that have consistently generated outsized returns for investors. Based on in-depth research conducted by the award-winning team at Marcellus Investment Managers, it uses case studies and charts to help readers learn the art and science of investing in the US$3 trillion Indian stock market. The book also debunks many notions of investing that have emerged from the misguided application of Western investment theories in the Indian context. Vital and indispensable, this book will serve as the ultimate manual on investing and provide practical counsel to readers to achieve their financial goals.

For many years I’ve known that I was meant to write this book. I didn’t know the exact reason, but I knew that I was meant to tell the story of the asbestos in the cooling towers, the importance of righteous leaders, and my experiences with the signs and wonders of God. Then, on June 19, 2021 the purpose of this book evolved, when God, in His Triune Being, confirmed to me that yes indeed I was meant to write this book. God gave me many prophetic words to include in this book. God’s Word given to me on 6/21/2021: “It is time to enact and react to the changing of the times. These are the days of the LORD your God. You are to follow my ways and not the ways of the enemy. It should be clear for all to see what is going on in the natural world around you...When leaders provide wrongdoing and no-one is showing outrage, that is outrageous. Grievous actions have taken place all around this great country and it is time for what has transpired in the past and what is being allowed to currently happen to be revealed and dismantled and those held to justice.”
