While riding at the 2008 National High School Finals in Farmington, NM, seventeen-year-old Corbin wanted to bring the national champon bull riding title back to his hometown of Jonesville, LA. With a score on one bull, another score would surely place him in a position to win but the bull, M33, changed this cowboy's plans. After six seconds into the ride, Corbin was thrown, and a blow from the bull's back leg broke Corbin's neck leaving him totally paralyzed with little hope he would ever walk again. This is a true story of my son, Corbin Carpenter, and his miraculous recovery from an injury that was supposed to leave him in a wheelchair for life. Corbin's faith in God's healing power, along with his determination brought him from total paralysis to roping cattle again in less than seven months after the injury. The struggles and set backs during recovery proved only a stepping stone to how Corbin is using this life changing event to help change the world, one testimony at a time.

ÒAn ideal historical theology, or even an introduction to it, Ò says Geoffrey Bromiley, Òlies beyond the limits of human possibility.Ó And he does not intend this volume to be an all-inclusive theological study about everybody and everything. Rather, Òthis work is composed for beginners, for inquirers, for those who know nothing or very little of the history of theology, but who want to know something, or something more.

Lee Child says it’s “stunning… certain to be a book of the year.” Kathy Reichs calls it “extraordinary… a major achievement.” Gillian Flynn says of Karin Slaughter: “I’d follow her anywhere.” Sisters. Strangers. Survivors. More than twenty years ago, Claire and Lydia’s teenaged sister Julia vanished without a trace. The two women have not spoken since, and now their lives could not be more different. Claire is the glamorous trophy wife of an Atlanta millionaire. Lydia, a single mother, dates an ex-con and struggles to make ends meet. But neither has recovered from the horror and heartbreak of their shared loss—a devastating wound that's cruelly ripped open when Claire's husband is killed. The disappearance of a teenage girl and the murder of a middle-aged man, almost a quarter-century apart: what could connect them? Forming a wary truce, the surviving sisters look to the past to find the truth, unearthing the secrets that destroyed their family all those years ago . . . and uncovering the possibility of redemption, and revenge, where they least expect it. Powerful, poignant, and utterly gripping, packed with indelible characters and unforgettable twists, Pretty Girls is a masterful novel from one of the finest writers working today.
