Being born into my mother's side of the family I was expected to live one way, that was Holy. I was surrounded by Pastors, Elders, Ministers and the saints of God that were my village. A real life church girl. From the time I can remember, my life was Sunday all day church, Wednesday night bible study, Friday night service and Saturday church activities. My way of life, my routine. All I knew and heard were the words Holy Ghost, Holiness; choir members in their black and white; "Church women don't wear pants;" you had to wear a lace head covering; no fornication or committing adultery were allowed. If you did, you would be silenced and treated differently by the saints of God. All I knew was that the Pastor had control of the saints in their church. If you were a pastor you had a pretty wife, a nice car, houses and dressed the best. These were my realities with contradictions thrown in the mix. There are so many broken people possessing and infecting other people with their brokenness all while shouting loud "I'm Christian, I'm saved, a Baptized believer." This type of demonic behavior must be addressed, exposed and cast out so that people can live and not just exist.

The award-winning New York Times bestseller about the American women who secretly served as codebreakers during World War II--a "prodigiously researched and engrossing" (New York Times) book that "shines a light on a hidden chapter of American history" (Denver Post). Recruited by the U.S. Army and Navy from small towns and elite colleges, more than ten thousand women served as codebreakers during World War II. While their brothers and boyfriends took up arms, these women moved to Washington and learned the meticulous work of code-breaking. Their efforts shortened the war, saved countless lives, and gave them access to careers previously denied to them. A strict vow of secrecy nearly erased their efforts from history; now, through dazzling research and interviews with surviving code girls, bestselling author Liza Mundy brings to life this riveting and vital story of American courage, service, and scientific accomplishment.

Missy Robertson knew that marrying duck-hunting family man Jase Robertson would be an adventure . . . and she was up to the challenge. Their life together was good (even after Jase grew the beard). They had two children, worked hard to help build the thriving Duck Commander business, and loved and served God. But after a difficult and risky pregnancy, their daughter, Mia, was born with a cleft palate—a serious condition requiring multiple cranial and facial surgeries. As their baby struggled to breathe, and Missy and Jase faced a life that suddenly looked very different than the one they’d planned, they found themselves staring down one of life’s biggest questions: Where is God in all this pain? This is the Robertsons’ story. It’s for anyone scared and overwhelmed by a problem they can’t fix; anyone lost and searching for a way through. You’ll meet the young girl Mia who captured A&E’s Duck Dynasty viewers’ hearts, and learn how Missy and Jase have raised her and their sons to be faithful, confident, and secure in who they are. You’ll be inspired by how the Robertson family stuck by each other through the hardest times. And you’ll discover that God’s blessings are bigger than you ever dreamed—and there when you need them the most.
