In December, 2009, Susan Cox Powell was reported missing from her home in West Valley City, Utah. As law enforcement tried to piece together what had happened to Susan, her husband, Josh Powell, became the only person of interest in the case. For Jennifer Graves, Josh's sister, the nightmare started long before Susan's disappearance. From her experiences growing up in the Powell family to the terrifying moment when she first started to believe her brother was a killer, she relied on her faith to stay strong. She devoted herself to the safety of Susan's boys, Charlie and Braden, whom she hoped to be able to raise as her own. When the boys were murdered by their father in February, 2012, Jennifer was more than devastated, but she had to believe there was a reason for it all---including the deaths of her beloved nephews. In A Light In Dark Places, Jennifer shares her struggles and her triumphs. In coming to terms with such tragedy she finally was able to embrace the truth that we all have the power to choose our own path---and there is always hope, no matter how dark things may seem.

“In The Radiant Midnight you will find not merely abstract ideas about the essence of darkness or how to go about facing it. You will also find humor, Wisdom. Honesty. You will find Melissa’s very bone and blood…it is here, then, in reading—rather, perhaps, listening to—her words, that your heart, trapped as it may feel in its own midnight, begins to see the first signs of dawn.” –Curt Thompson, MD, author of Anatomy of the Soul Grace and Hope for Long Dark Nights Have you ever suffered with depression, sadness, or the feeling that you just can't seem to get it together? Do you wonder if you could ever view your deepest wounds in a different light? Through candid storytelling, biblical truth, honest lament, and unexpected humor, The Radiant Midnight is a bold refusal to simplify the experience of suffering by moving too quickly to try to relieve it. With questions to guide you and practical suggestions to lead you through dark moments, this book takes you on a journey of surrender, suffering, rest, and restoration as it encourages and comforts you in whatever struggle you face. The message of The Radiant Midnight is fueled by the passionate belief that not only will God lead you out of darkness, He will be fully and beautifully present within it. You can find deep contentment in painful circumstances and discover a profound intimacy with a compassionate, tender God who is with you in every moment—in each hope-filled dawn and every radiant midnight.

"I grew up with the grandiose science fiction tales, in books and on film, with great galaxy-spanning adventures or life-changing technologies," said Jonathan Hicks. "In this book I concentrate on the 'little guy', the people who work behind the scenes and those who get a less than stellar deal out of the supposed adventure travelling the galaxy and exploring new technologies offers."

In the wonder of thought, things pop into the mind in the same generation of substancein the subjects that distinguish the areas that surround use of their circumstances. Images intern relative pictures that control the terms we provide in use of thoughtin regard usually to destination and, indeed, where such things may be heading and why we should be led in any direction, either by persuasion or for a joke, which we may invite, if and when, we can see the details negotiating the things that are likely to be joining us when we arrive. And we are able to see what we are in for, and why we should be asked to make it a consideration, as in the words, Whats in it for me? As, indeed, we need to understand all the qualified improvements, if any, that we are likely to find or make or be able to facilitate or whether we should forget all about it and say no and just keep on as usual. If, at any time, reason pops up that it may be a request with a real and proper question attached, it is sometimes the challenge for the need to be straight up front and avoiding such issuesthat always come up with a ticket included for someones day out. Whether or not it has to be us or has to be seen first or maybe we need to find out whats so funny about ridiculous lengths to make sense of things that only usually come with a set amount of words. Need for any more words only spells mischief. Poetry comes with a smooth mental picture in value of the taste and style possessed in creating the verses that make common sayings regard hard facts with a qualified few words for the measure of the day.
