DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhen all seems lost, where can you find hope? Katherine and Jay Wolf married right after college and sought adventure far from home in Los Angeles, CA. As they pursued their dreams--she as a model and he as a lawyer--they planted their lives in the city and their church community. Their son, James, came along unexpectedly in the fall of 2007, and just six months later, everything changed in a moment for this young family. On April 21, 2008, as James slept in the other room, Katherine collapsed, suffering a massive brain stem stroke without warning. Miraculously, Jay came home in time and called for help. Katherine was immediately rushed into brain surgery, though her chance of survival was slim. As the sun rose the next morning, the surgeon proclaimed that Katherine had survived the removal of part of her brain, though her future recovery was uncertain. Yet in that moment, there was a spark of hope. Through forty days on life support in the ICU and nearly two years in full-time brain rehab, that small spark of hope was fanned into flame. Hope Heals documents Katherine and Jay's journey as they struggled to regain Katherine's quality of life and as she relearned to talk, eat, and walk. As Katherine returned home with a severely disabled body but a completely renewed purpose, she and Jay committed to celebrating this gift of a second chance by embracing life fully, even though that life looked very different than they could have ever imagined. As you uncover Katherine and Jay's remarkable story, you'll be encouraged to: Find lasting hope in the midst of struggle Embrace the unexpected Welcome God's miracles into your everyday life In the midst of continuing hardships, both in body and mind, Katherine and Jay found what we all long to find: a hope that heals the most broken place--our souls. Let Hope Heals be your guide along the way. Praise for Hope Heals: "As I read this book, tears streamed from my eyes even as joy flooded my heart. Jay and Katherine are a raw yet refreshing testimony to the unshakable trustworthiness of God amidst the unimaginable trials of life. This book reminds all of us where hope can be found in a world where none of us know what the next day holds." --David Platt, author of the New York Times bestseller Radical and president of the International Mission Board "Hope Heals is a beautiful, true story that illustrates the love and protection God has for us even in the darkest times of our lives. Katherine and Jay's dedication to each other and the Lord through their most devastating season is inspiring. This book will help your heart believe that He sees, He knows, He cares, and He is still working miracles today!" --Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA “scintillating . . . sharp and unsentimental” portrait of a marriage and a woman facing her own imperfect past from the acclaimed author of Forgiveness 4 You (The Washington Post). When her husband, Jobe, dies in their home one cool April morning, Carmen Garrett feels a mix of horror and excitement. Having always been more indebted to Jobe than in love with him, she is now finally free to live her life—finally done with the lie of their happiness. But as she helps her three children grieve, she discovers, after a tryst with her most recent lover, that her own life may be in danger. Her emotions reeling, Carmen reflects on the fateful days of her youth that made her the person she has become: privileged suburban wife, unfaithful widow, mother of a child with Down syndrome, fierce friend. The Forever Marriage draws comparison to the best work of Anne Tyler, Elizabeth Berg, and Alice Sebold as it “poignantly and powerfully illustrate[s] the great and often tragic ironies of life” (Minneapolis Star-Tribune). “With quiet power, Bauer explores the isolation, betrayal, duty, and, finally, compassion that constitute an unhappy marriage.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat is the best wedding advice you ever received? For author Seth Adam Smith, it was the advice from his father who said, "Marriage is not for you. It is about the person you marry." These few words completely changed the way Seth looked at his relationship with his wife-to-be. Because at that moment he realized that an expression of love is not about the person expressing it. Rather, it is about the person they choose to be with. It is about making the person you marry feel loved. Seth's blog post on the subject was viewed by more than thirty million people, and he has been featured on several national TV programs including "The Today Show." Now released as a hardcover book, these sage words make the perfect gift for newly married couples, those who have been around the block a few times, or anyone who wants to learn how to make their relationships stronger.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn Love Forever, you will be reading the subjects of marriage, divorce, remarriage, parenthood, and more, in a brief, yet straightforward manner with honesty and openness. It is your honest and true attitude of continual forgiveness with humble love, along with your sincere, earnest prayer and faithful belief in Jesus, with obedient service to Him that will make you a happy and peaceful Christian in your life and in your marriage. As a Christian, you must concern yourself with how you love your spouse, rather than how you are loved by your spouse. Always listen carefully to what the Holy Spirit may be trying to point out to you and pray for His guidance. Maintain an open mind as you read and study Gods Word, abolish any preconceived opinions and interpretations you may have or had, and search only for Jesus truth in the New Testament, obeying His will in your life. Do not try to change Gods Word. Dont try to get it to say something other than what it says or means. You will find that most of your problems and difficulties will be overcome when you abandon your desires and wishes, and truly search to know, follow, and obey Jesus will, whatever that may be. Dont forget to always love and forgive your spouse. Jesus desires our loving compassion with pure motives for one another. A Christian spiritual life without Jesus true love is an empty and meaningless Christian life. It is impossible to read this book without sensing the deep love and commitment that the author, Dan L. Coyle, has for his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. His life-long devotion to God and His Word is profoundly evident in the heartfelt words of this text. His massive and intimate knowledge of the Scriptures is well attested to, as he backs up every line of his reasoning with multiple supporting biblical texts. His life-long walk with God has endowed him with simple, yet profound, wisdom that has made this volume a veritable treasure chest of helpful, practical, and biblical counsel for dealing with many wide-ranging issues dealing with marriage and family life. Some of his positions may seem to be controversial, but he argues rather convincingly, that the controversies arise because too many people in our modern era have erred by putting the words of man above the Words of God. If you read this book with an open mind, you will find it to be practical, helpful, uplifting, challenging, and definitely life-changing! Dr. Thomas Kindell Founder and President Reasons for Faith Ministries, Inc. To endure in marriage takes an active decision; you must learn honesty, love, and forgiveness, no matter what.
