The Americanized church culture as we know it is broken, hurting, and missing our greatest responsibility: to love God and love people right where they are. We have become more invested in the superficial needs of man rather than leaving the four walls and becoming the bride. Using the realities of life and conversations, The Broken Bride explores our need to get back to basics in Christ and revolutionize how we daily think of church and people to mend the broken bride. In this reflection, author and pastor Loni M. Stankan helps redefine the hurt church into the divine definition of the bride of Christ as the father intended. Filled with wisdom and advice from living and walking the faith with other believers, Stankan challenges your perception and role of the traditional American church. She encourages Christians to rise up from the megachurches to megacommunities filled with love and grace rooted in the love of Christ and unified in one mind and one spirit.

She planned everything for the wedding– except the falling in love part. . . . In a family of jet-setters and lovable eccentrics, Cydney Parrish is the stable, sensible one, always with her feet firmly planted on the ground. Maybe that’s why she ended up raising her sister’s daughter Bebe. Now Bebe is all grown up and about to marry the nephew of the handsome and reclusive author Angus Munroe. Between planning the wedding, dealing with her high maintenance kin, and facing a future with only a cat for company, Cydney has her hands full. But she isn’t too busy to notice that aside from being pushy and generally infuriating, Gus Munroe may just be the man of her dreams. Angus Munroe is not about to let his only nephew throw his future away on some ditzy debutante. He flies into town determined to “speak now and never hold his peace”–but ends up instead with a broken nose, a slight limp, and his mountainside home invaded by the bride-to-be’s family. He’s pretty certain it is all the wedding planner’s fault. Aunts aren’t supposed to be sexy, but someone obviously forgot to tell the irresistible Cydney Parrish. . . .
