For Karsi'hara Two months felt like forever, especially since becoming aware of her prominent gift. She had chosen to become inconspicuous about what was happening to her because she was only able to access that realm as she slept. Having this ability to travel into another place in time was scary enough, not to mention to be able to see and speak with those in that realm. As she was able to overcome the initial shock her abilities began to sharpen more than she could ever imagine. Meeting Jared and his sister and learning that they had the same gift was amazing; she was floored the first time they spoke to one another. It was mind-blowing because neither of them would ever in a thousand years have comprehended such a thing. Lisa has finally awakened, but Jabali has not. Relatives from both sides of the family have just about put their lives on hold, as well as the Henry's who are now working on their marriage. Tony prepares to head back to Japan along with some of the other family members to find out about Jabali's parents, also needing to understand what exactly the shootout at the O'Hare Airport had been all about, what had made all those mothers decide to risk their lives along with their children in such a dramatic way. Upon his arrival in Japan, Tony will meet with his boss Mr. Yao Yamamoto, who will soon find out some horrifying news as well. Together they will potentially get to the bottom of whatever has been going on right under their noses. You will be able to meet members of Kasi'hara's family while learning about how their love for the father has shaped them into some of the warmest and most magnificent people on this planet, seemingly so unreal that it would almost appear unimaginable that they truly exist, I know you will be able to appreciate how God has guided the hands of his people into becoming extraordinary examples of his love and greatness through their faith hope and love for him. Now Abides: Faith, Hope, Love Book 2 gives you not only a glance into another world but also a taste of whom our father the creator of everything really is. So please sit back and let's get started. As always, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sincerely, Jerene B. Wright 52

Readers loved Rachel's Secret, the first book in BJ Hoff's wildly popular new series, The Riverhaven Years, and are eagerly awaiting the continuing story of young Amish widow, Rachel Brenneman, and Irish-American riverboat captain, Jeremiah Gant. In Where Grace Abides, the compelling second book in the series, Hoff offers her readers an even closer look at the Amish community of Riverhaven and the people who live and love and work there. Secrets, treachery, and persecution are only a few of the challenges that test Rachel's faith and her love for the forbidden "outsider," while Gant's own hopes and dreams are dealt a life-changing blow, rendering the vow he made to Rachel seemingly impossible to honor. Many of the other characters first introduced in Rachel's Secret now find their gentle, unassuming lives of faith jeopardized by a malicious outside influence. At the same time, those striving to help runaway slaves escape to freedom through the Underground Railroad face deception and the danger of discovery. All the elements readers have come to expect from author BJ Hoff (romance, drama, great characters) join together in Where Grace Abides to fill the pages with a tender, endearing love story and a bold, inspiring journey of faith.

What abides over the sixty years since President John F. Kennedy spoke at my graduation from West Point. This is where What Abides begins. Days spent at West Point stand clearly in my mind. I can envision my daily life as a cadet: a bed made taut as a trampoline, spit-shined shoes, and a sworn oath to absolute honesty. No lying, no cheating, no stealing, no locks, no keys. We woke in the early morning to bugles and drums. Another day in which to excel. Heavy academics and tough physical training ensued. We might be ordered to climb a flimsy ladder to the gymnasium rafters. We would leap into the swimming pool, all part of the survival swimming class. Academic classes, physical training, year-round competitive sports, sometimes an afternoon parade. Evenings we study. But West Point is more than this. One day in June, President Eisenhower visited the barracks. I, on duty, greeted him and, improbably, we shared a joke together. Wintertime at West Point is dubbed Gloom Period. So the marching band played pop tunes and jazz in the mess hall to cheer us. Cadets also marked the world outside West Point. We traveled to an army base in Alabama. Our one Black classmate in the total class of six hundred met the real-world shock of Jim Crow racism. When we paraded down Fifth Avenue in New York City for the last time, we couldn't know that ninety cadets marching would die in Vietnam. What Abides is about a brotherhood, forged in rigorous training, devoted to living honorable lives. Our parade in New York brought memories of applauding crowds, the grand backdrops of Central Park and Fifth Avenue. My looking out over New York harbor brought thoughts of why and how I attended West Point. Born during World War II, the triumphant victory subsumed the nation during my youth. The entry process was intensely competitive. The official catalogue warned that admission requirements were "somewhat" different from other colleges. Indeed they were. Oh that first day at West Point! With shocking suddenness military discipline was imposed by upperclassmen. We left our homes as our parents' children. By late afternoon, shorn of hair, we were marching in cadence and had sworn an oath of cadetship. In name West Point cadets, there remained much to learn. We were taught to make our beds, shine our shoes and march, all the West Point way. We ate sitting at attention. We memorized vast quantities of material from the obtuse definition of the word "discipline" to the mess hall's daily meal menu. Indeed it was all somewhat different. What Abides unearths other aspects of West Point. Why the ignoring of Baron von Steuben in the founding of the real Colonial Army and military academies? The very model of a soldier/adviser, he seems curiously marginalized at West Point. Then there is Robert Strange McNamara. Not a West Point graduate but actually its nemesis. He considered his mentor, Curtis "Bombs Away" LeMay, as one of the best military commanders. Together, following orders, this disastrous duo had set ablaze the primarily wooden cities of Japan. A warm-up to the coming tragedies of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. For West Pointers, where is the honor in civilian slaughter? McNamara pulled out all his bombing stops in Vietnam. He said there were no experts available to guide him and that Vietnam was "terra incognita." This was the great lie that helped kill hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese. Did anyone, West Point graduate or not, think about the war crimes of bombing civilians? It prevails today. Also consider West Point throughout its history. Dubbed The Long Gray Line, one family can span a century of graduates. What Abides explains such a family. It also shows an example of West Point in the classroom as it analyzes leadership in times of war, peace and cold war. All this and much more is what abides for me.

So, your sitting there, on the journey of life. Stuck. Again. Sure, it’s convenient, easy, comfortable. But where is the passion, excitement, and adventure you thought you might find with God? Where is the freedom, the love, and the support through good times and bad? Often, these are the most frustrating questions in our lives. The questions that no one seems to have an answer for and at the same time rarely get asked. The ones that are just bad enough for us to know something is deeply wrong but not great enough to provide a reason to break out of our comfort zones. So, what do we do? Abide seeks to answer these questions along with practical advice to help those who are struggling in a much darker arena as well as support those who have already found their passion in Christ. Using biblically backed evidence and life experience this book seeks to provide practical answers to questions that remain ignored far to often either by ourselves or by others.

“Abide in Me.” John 15:4 Do you yearn for life-giving, intimate communion with God? The Abide Bible is designed to help you experience the peace, hope, and growth that comes from encountering the voice and presence of God in Scripture. Every feature in Abide is designed to teach and develop Scripture-engagement habits that help you know the power and spiritual nourishment of abiding in Christ. Created in partnership with Bible Gateway and the Taylor University Center for Scripture Engagement, The Abide Bible’s features includes book introductions and practical Scripture-engagement prompts based on five ways of engaging deeply with the Bible: Praying Scripture: Pattern your prayers after biblical texts, personalizing the prayer and gaining language for the thoughts and emotions you want to express. Picture It: Place yourself in a biblical narrative as a bystander or participant in important events. Journaling: Focus and reflect on Scripture and its meaning for your life, opening yourself to God’s voice as you ponder. Engage Through Art: Consider a classic piece of art—photograph, sculpture, painting—and let it deepen your meditations on scriptural truths. Contemplate: Follow the church’s longstanding practice of reading, meditating on, praying, and contemplating a passage of Scripture in order to experience God’s presence through the words of the Bible.
