Now a Netflix TV show! Featuring a diverse cast of characters, plenty of gossip, lies, and scandal, Shiny Broken Pieces continues with the soapy drama readers loved in Tiny Pretty Things. June, Bette, and Gigi are competing one final time for a spot at the prestigious American Ballet Company. With the stakes higher than ever, these girls have everything to lose…and no one is playing nice. June is starting to finally see herself as a prima ballerina.

In Healing a Shattered Soul, Mindy Corporon invites readers to join her search for inspiration and hope after domestic terrorism took the lives of her father and son. Headlines about the attack circled the world. Now, Mindy takes readers inside her family's struggle, the support of their faith community and her commitment to courageous kindness. A popular speaker, teacher and writer, Mindy has dedicated her life to encouraging kindness, faith and healing in congregations, companies and communities. Among the programs she has co-founded with this vision are the Faith Always Wins Foundation and Workplace Healing, LLC. She has traveled widely to lead workshops and speak at conferences, and also works with online events. She explains that she wrote this book "for those who are seeking inspiration; for those who are searching for a glimmer of hope and faith; and for those in need of necessary, supportive relationships, even in the hardest times." In his Foreword, best-selling author and pastor the Rev. Adam Hamilton writes, "Mindy Corporon's story helps us understand how one survives tragedy, and says to the reader, 'If Mindy can survive this, and can do what she has done, then surely I can survive the adversity I face and can bring something good from it.' " The book's Preface is a heart-felt appeal to readers from another mother who suffered a tragic loss to domestic terrorism in recent years. Susan Bro is the mother of Heather Heyer, killed in Charlottesville, Virginia. In her Preface, Susan writes, "Mothers lose their children to violence every day, and yet many have no time to grieve and receive little to no public support or attention. We must hold space in our hearts and minds for them as we continue to overcome hate with love. People say, 'Love always wins.' I say that is true when we practice that love in meaningful ways that make a difference. I see Mindy Corporon as one of those mothers doing exactly that. We never want other mothers to experience the pain and loss of losing a loved one, especially a child, to hate. I am honored to call Mindy Corporon my friend. Her book offers hope in a time of pain, pointing the way forward with faith and love. Read it and be encouraged to find your own way forward through pain and loss."

A One-Month Devotional on Thanksgiving, Praise & Worship. Did you know that our modern Christian experience is highly focused on music and the arts? Do you realize that many Christians today don't know what God's word says about praise, worship and music? How then can we worship in spirit and in truth if we don't know the truth? In 31 Days of Compelling Worshipful Devotions, David W. Palmer helps us sit at Jesus's feet and understand what He said about His Father's heart: "God seeks those who will worship him in spirit and in truth" (John 4:20-24). This one-month devotional will help you to not only understand what God wants, but will lead you to God's throne daily to experience true worship, to give thanks, and to express your praise. As a result, you can become one of those whom God seeks. "I believe this devotional can help believers everywhere grow in their worship and intimacy with God through knowing the truth and having it set them free." -David W. Palmer

Did you know that an active enemy is vehemently opposed to God's kingdom, and that he is working against you daily? Were you aware that Jesus exposed his strategy and laid out a set of instructions for overcoming him? Are you taking full advantage of Jesus's winning formula? In How to Overcome the Daily Evil, David W. Palmer helps us sit at Jesus's feet and receive straightforward instructions for winning our daily battle with evil. First, Jesus shows just how relentless and pernicious the evil is, and how subtly our enemy works in our everyday lives. Next he lays out a foolproof way of pinpointing our focus so we cannot be distracted. Then, through his own example, he shows what works and what doesn't against our enemy. Our Lord is brilliantly simple and ingeniously effective in teaching us how to overcome the daily evil and thus receive eternal rewards.

Death, love, destiny, and danger! Lenzi knows she must be going crazy. She's hearing voices and having visions--specifically of gravestones, floods, and a gorgeous guy with steely gray eyes.

Now Lenzi must choose: destiny or normalcy. Alden or Zak. Life or death. And time is quickly running out.

During the two centuries following European contact, the world of late prehistoric Mississippian chiefdoms collapsed and Native communities there fragmented, migrated, coalesced, and reorganized into new and often quite different societies. The editors of this volume, Robbie Ethridge and Sheri M. Shuck-Hall, argue that such a period and region of instability and regrouping constituted a "shatter zone."
