“Always preach to broken hearts and you will never lack for a congregation,” an old saying goes. And for that reason, this book is for everyone—because there are many, many things that break our hearts. Sicknesses, spiritual depression, disabilities, painful memories, strained relationships... all of these weigh on Christians’ hearts at one time or another. And even when our hearts feel light, there is a longing that runs through us—a crying of the soul for eternity, for a new heavens and a new earth. Yet even in the midst of our heartache, we know there is a faith that comes from Jesus Christ that not only encourages us through our pain, but can even transform our pain... as long as we let it. And here is a collection of warm, pastoral messages, filled with personal illustration, that does just that: helps the brokenhearted Christian to locate the God of all comfort in the center of all pain. We are not left there, either; Mike Milton takes us a step further to see how the gospel actually transforms our private pain into personal praise. So read and discover how God uses the things that seek to destroy us to become the very things that bring us salvation, bring us hope, bring us to prayer, bring us together, and ultimately bring us to heaven.

The turbulent decade of the 1930s in France saw the decay and final collapse of the once proud nation. Caught up in the maelstrom of Nazi occupation, ordinary citizens were forced to walk the narrow line between obedience and collaboration. No-one faced a more difficult set of choices than Nanette Lemond, a young singer and fashion designer living in Paris. Forced by circumstances to associate daily with German officers, her lonely existence made her an easy target for those seeking romance. Behind the scenes, the heroic men and women of the Resistance risked their lives to thwart Nazi hopes for an easy occupation. When allied armies liberated their nation, the time arrived for reprisals against those who aided the Nazi regime. Would Nanette's choices expose her to the wrath of France's patriots and to a life of shame, or would someone come forth to clear her name? Terror, bravery, heartbreak and love all combine in this fast-paced story set in the real history of World War Two

My Luck, a West African boy solider who has not spoken for three years, fights in a senseless war and embarks on a terrifying yet beautiful journey to find his lost platoon.

There are moments in life when joy, peace, and purpose are ripped from your heart and soul, and you are left with nothing. When Bethany's husband, Hadley, dies, she stands in that place. She is empty. Having a tenuous relationship with God and determined to find her way out of sorrow and to become whole again, Bethany searches for a rescuing rope of acceptance and strength from her past experiences and an unwavering pursuit to grasp the fullness of God. Her journey winds through memories of a mother's death and the transport from a loving home into the hands of a stern and authoritarian grandmother, a weak grandfather, and a favored cousin Clarissa. She remembers her first taste of love-James. Young love. Hidden love with disastrous results. And she brings forth from a deep and almost forgotten place in her heart, memories of the tender stories of Jesus her mother told while they sat together after dark in her mother's rocker on the lawn. She envisions the stars they named. The songs they sang. Their songs in the night. Pocketed pieces of God. Complications arise. A returned jealous and dying cousin. James. A former abused classmate. A tormented mentor. Will Bethany survive and find joy, or will she drown in a tumultuous river of grief? In a compelling story of a broken woman, Dottie Rexford captures the anguish and yearnings of all who struggle to regain a sense of strength, peace, and truth within their hearts.

“Songs in the Night” is a poetic phrase from Job 35:10 which describes God’s strength given to believers to sing and praise God while in affliction. Spurgeon describes the origin of the songs, the content of the songs, the different qualities of the songs, and how God might use the songs. Spurgeon exhorts us “to carry a smile, for you will cheer up many a poor, wayward pilgrim by it.” This is the complete version of this very popular sermon and was updated to modern language.

But it’s also a story about how he came to question what authenticity really means, and how his passion for grilled meats, fried chicken, tacos, sushi, wine and good living morphed into an L.A. Thai restaurant with a style all its own.
