Adam Stern is a sixty-four-year-old husband, father, and architect whose dad passes away and leaves Adam nothing but a shoe box containing four strange and seemingly worthless items. There is a brass button, a pocketknife, and a bird's feather. There is also a single page torn from a poetry book, and Adam reads the poem over and over. It gradually comes to life, and it shines a healing light of the absurd on Adam's world, transforming his entire outlook on life.

These stories have a powerful Christian message based on Jesus' teachings. Three of the stories are from Jesus Himself. Others were written by devout believers like Henry Van Dyke and Johanna Spyri. Yet, one of the authors Mark Twain was not a Christian himself. Leo Tolstoy radically embraced the teachings of Jesus, but he struggled most of his life with orthodox Christian doctrines. Yet, the stories included herein from both Twain and Tolstoy reveal profound insights into the teachings of Christ.

Living Fully from the Space You Call Home

Countless TV shows, magazines, books, and websites that speak to some aspect of the concept of home. But women are looking for more than just storage solutions and trendy paint colors. They are looking for a place where they belong and where others can come for refuge from our hectic world.
With warm, personal writing, Mary Beth Lagerborg helps modern women realize this dream. They can create a home that is both a haven and a starting point from which they can go out and face the world. Lagerborg has interviewed nearly seventy people who possess a healthy sense of home. She shows readers how they can make their dwellings safe and reengergizing places for themselves and those around them. Although Dwelling covers topics like decorating and dining, it doesn't stop there. Chapters on acceptance, making community, the changing dynamics of family, and even working from home make this book unique. Dwelling challenges readers to look beyond the superficial and into the true heart of home.
