While studying under Vivaldi, three girls in a Venice orphanage forge their own notions of love in a sensuous, engrossing novel told in three narrative voices. It is a longing and search for love that motivates three girls living in the Ospedale della Pietà, an orphanage renowned for its extraordinary musical program. But for Rosalba, Anetta, and Luisa, the love they seek is not where they expect to find it. Set in the early 1700s in the heart of Venice, this remarkable novel deftly weaves the history of Antonio Vivaldi’s early musical career into the lives of three young women who excel in voice and instrument. Under the composer’s tutelage and care, the orphans find expression, sustenance, and passion. But can the sheltered life of the orphanage prepare them for the unthinkable dangers outside its walls?

What is the wealthiest continent in the world? Would it surprise you to learn that the answer is Africa? Every country in Africa has vast riches in the form of gems, gold, minerals, hydrocarbon resources, and more . . . and yet, in most African countries, the standard of living is abysmal, except for those who collaborate with colonialists to keep the African people poor, their wealth exploited and stolen from them.

It provides a concise history of colonialism in Africa and an examination of ongoing humanitarian and civil rights abuses, as well as a practical, exciting template for sweeping reform to return Africa’s wealth to her people. Whether you are a member of the Black diaspora living in another country, a citizen of Africa seeking a better life, or an ally who wants to support justice for Africa, this book will enlighten and inspire you.

When Deng Xiaoping’s efforts to “open up” China took root in the late 1980s, Xinran recognized an invaluable opportunity. As an employee for the state radio system, she had long wanted to help improve the lives of Chinese women. But when she was given clearance to host a radio call-in show, she barely anticipated the enthusiasm it would quickly generate. Operating within the constraints imposed by government censors, “Words on the Night Breeze” sparked a tremendous outpouring, and the hours of tape on her answering machines were soon filled every night. Whether angry or muted, posing questions or simply relating experiences, these anonymous women bore witness to decades of civil strife, and of halting attempts at self-understanding in a painfully restrictive society. In this collection, by turns heartrending and inspiring, Xinran brings us the stories that affected her most, and offers a graphically detailed, altogether unprecedented work of oral history.

For well over a year, Gospel Recording Artist, Vicki Yohe was involved in what she describes as "a dangerous cult experience." She released a video in 2018 where she admitted to being involved in a "sinful relationship" with a preacher who oversees an international ministry. Since that time, she along with several other women have come forward on social media and other venues to share their stories of what they call manipulation, fraud, and abuse of power--but also of hope and of healing for all of those who have been victimized by this ministry as well as by others. "All You Have is a Voice," (endorsements by Joni Lamb of Daystar Television and others!) is a bold presentation of the bondage of some; it is a brave presentation of those who are now free. Truth and transparency have always followed the life of this Gospel Artist & International worship leader. This book is a must read for all seeking to walk in freedom and.....no more secrets!
