Walking in Faith: The Peter, Paul, and Mary Principle (NF)

Written by Dr. Craig von Buseck

Peter, Paul, and Mary: three ordinary people, but after an encounter with God, each chose to respond in faith and action—and through them, God changed the world forever.

In Walking in Faith: The Peter, Paul, and Mary Principle, Dr. Craig von Buseck identifies a life-changing concept in three biblical scenarios: Peter following the call of Jesus to walk on the water; Saul’s encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus; and Mary receiving the message from Gabriel that she would bear the Christ child.

Despite the risk to their lives, each of these biblical heroes chose to believe God—and to act on that faith. As a result, they stepped out of their simple existence and into an adventure with God beyond their wildest dreams. This same odyssey is available to anyone willing to do the same through this revolutionary concept.

By understanding and walking in this principle of faith, you can experience the fullness of God’s plan for your life. This book is written to help regular people understand the power and provision available to them through a life of faith—opening the door to victorious Christian living.

The Peter, Paul, and Mary Principle can impact seekers of all ages—from businesspeople and community leaders, to politicians, educators, parents, students, pastors, and missionaries—anyone who desires to please God and to experience abundant life through a relationship with Jesus Christ.

And They Came with Haste (F)

Written by Whitney Ward

A LITTLE LAMB SHALL LEAD THEM ...

Hadassah longs for a different life than what’s destined for her—betrothal, marriage, and childbearing. A destiny that suffocates her. She longs for adventure. And nothing satisfies her thirst for adventure more than her calling—being the shepherdess of her father’s flock. One night, a sickly maimed lamb is born to the flock, and Hadassah knows in her heart this lamb has a divine purpose.

Her faith in this promise guides her to name the lamb “Haste,” for this insignificant maimed lamb will live to do something significant. The animal heals Hadassah’s heart, and she slowly becomes open to love. It’s evident to everyone that Haste is not an ordinary lamb, not even Hadassah can imagine how special Haste is, for the birth of this lamb signals the countdown of the most historical event in the world.

Bridging the Mississippi (NF)

Written by Sandra Baker Baron

A memoir of racial inequality and missed beads

Sandi and Denny Baron both were delighted they landed their first job with ease. Joy turns to surprise when they drive across the nation to find themselves the only White teachers in an all-Black school in New Orleans. Naïve to the strong cultural divisions in the South, Sandi teaches her students to read and write, and they school her about the realities of their life.

Then, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is killed by a White man. How will the staff and students at school respond to Sandi in the wake of their shock and grieving?

To process the event, Sandi assigns her students to write about their feelings. Forty-five years later, the retired teacher reconnects with her former students and returns their eighth and ninth-grade essays written the day after Dr. King’s assassination.

Bridging The Mississippi is the compelling story of ordinary people building extraordinary bridges across racial tensions. Told from both sides, their story shows the best of the human spirit.
