Friends are gifts from God, but they don’t always seem like presents. Thankfully, the Bible talks a lot about relationships and helps us navigate through the ones bringing either joy or challenges.

At the Heart of Friendship is an expanded and enlarged version of the original women’s Bible study that provides 10 lessons on different aspects of friendship. The focus is on the fascinating interactions in the Bible between Hannah and Penninah, the groom and bride of the Song of Solomon, Mary and Martha, Rachel and Leah, Ruth and Naomi, and many others. Topics cover envy, competition, conflict, mentoring, and relationships with a husband and children—and above all, a friendship with God.

With characteristic depth of questions and insightful commentary, this study in the Daughters of the King Bible Study Series includes the heart-impacting “Letter from God” at the end of each lesson. You’ll find this a helpful, encouraging, and enlightening study for yourself or a group of women.

Black-Ops veteran Max Braxton and Archaeologist Kate Cordova are back!

The United Nations has long led a diplomatic jihad against Israel, even claiming Jews have no historic claim on Jerusalem.

But 2,600-year-old proof of Jewish ownership exists. Kat’s goal—find the prophet Jeremiah’s property deed to land outside Jerusalem, and therefore, fulfill a prophetic promise to Jeremiah and the nation today.

Meanwhile, when the President decides to move the American embassy to Jerusalem, Arab jihadists explode in fury, targeting the heart of the Jewish nation. Max is called in to protect the ambassador, but his first duty is to protect Kat at all costs.

Will Caton let go of the past in pursuit of a promising new future? Can Lily surrender her own pretentious desires to God’s perfect intervention?

The Winter Queen has brought the storm … and the Abyss roams the halls of the Blood Keep.

Ten days have passed since Sundragon blood was shed for a sacrifice by Raphaela Kael. Ten days since Lathan and Maxx Jandry fled the city in search of Princess Damari Kael and their niece, Noelle. Brecken Jandry, Brae’s loyal husband, remains a tortured prisoner in the Kael dungeons and no one in Sunkai is safe from Roderick and Raphaela’s wrath.

Damari Kael flees Sunkai with little Noelle Jandry, determined to deliver the child to the safety of the Shadow Lands, even as her own power emerges within her. The Eventide Sisters embark on a mission to join the Winter Queen. Across the land, Clea Jandry arrives in her birthplace of Molderëin where she is met with a savagery she thought long dead. Afra Malaki seeks the Creator’s will and the Queen of the Woodlands prepares for battle.

In the peaceful city of Quintaria, the Winter Queen grieves. But the shadows are coming for her. They carry a message for Adlae Sundragon, and they will not rest until all is revealed.
