Her husband Martin is the Chief of Internal Medicine at the hospital where has worked for well over a decade. And Katarina, their adopted daughter, on the eve of her sixteenth birthday, has grown into a beautiful young woman. But things are rarely perfect for very long.... When Katarina starts acting up, Laura is concerned, while Martin chalks it up to typical teenage angst. Laura wants to deal with it and Martin wants to ignore it. But then Katarina starts asking questions-typical questions that all adoptees ask-and Laura is faced with one of the most difficult challenges of parenting and in her marriage. In the midst of the chaos with Katarina, Laura discovers a devastating secret. One that turns her life upside down and shatters her perfect family and her idyllic life-and on the same day, life throws her another curveball she never imagined would happen. Confused and heartbroken, Laura turns to the only person who could understand what she is going through: Adrianna. Can her dearest friend help Laura make sense of her life and put things back together? And...is Adrianna ready to tell Katarina her secret? Deepest Desire of the Heart is the second in a four-book series and explores the relationship between mothers and daughters, how to heal a marriage that has been torn apart by infidelity, and how difficult it can be to share a secret that has been kept hidden for so long.

Bible teacher and acclaimed spoken-word artist David Bowden reveals the secret to winning the battle with sin. Many Christians believe the only way to fight sin is to grit our teeth, strengthen our resolve, and rise above the onslaught of temptation. But in reality, we have a far better weapon in our struggle with sin than the will-power mantras associated with diet and exercise. This weapon is not saying "no" to sin but saying "yes" to God. In Rewire Your Heart, David Bowden helps us discover God's plan to overcoming sin by rewiring our desires with the Gospel. When we invite the Holy Spirit to transform our underlying affections with the good news of Jesus, we begin to break free from the patterns of sin, guilt, and determination, and discover the richer fulfillment found in joyfully obeying God's commands.

Following the 1979 revolution, the Iranian government set out to Islamize society. Muslim piety had to be visible, in personal appearance and in action. Iranians were told to pray, fast, and attend mosques to be true Muslims. The revolution turned questions of what it means to be a true Muslim into a matter of public debate, taken up widely outside the exclusive realm of male clerics and intellectuals. Say What Your Longing Heart Desires offers an elegant ethnography of these debates among a group of educated, middle-class women whose voices are often muted in studies of Islam. Niloofar Haeri follows them in their daily lives as they engage with the classical poetry of Rumi, Hafez, and Saadi, illuminating a long-standing mutual inspiration between prayer and poetry. She recounts how different forms of prayer may transform into dialogues with God, and, in turn, Haeri illuminates the ways in which believers draw on prayer and ritual acts as the emotional and intellectual material through which they think, deliberate, and debate.

All Rachel has ever wanted is a family. How could God grant her the desire of her heart, then do nothing to prevent it being taken away? Can she wait for God's perfect timing, or will she take matters into her own hands...again? About to age out of a Missouri orphanage in 1858, shy Rachel listens with terror as the orphanage matron tells her she's practically auctioning her off to the highest bidder for her hand in marriage. Rachel prays, asking God to help her and her younger brother Charlie escape, but how? When God provides what Rachel believes to be her liberator, the seed of an idea sets in motion an adventure that will bring happiness and heartbreak, and nearly cost Rachel her health. When trouble comes, it comes in a big way and those who care for Rachel wonder if she will ever recover. Rachel and Charlie face danger and sorrow, see new territory, and grow in their faith. They just might even find the desire of their hearts and realize God had bigger plans than they ever imagined.
