In love but worlds apart is a self-help book for a man and woman who come from two very different cultural backgrounds and who are considering a life commitment to each other. It shows how and when their differences can be problematic, but also how such a relationship could succeed. This book enables partners to think and talk about their cultural differences (such as in manners, values, worldview, holidays and other customs), and to develop traditions and activities they can enjoy together. Questions to think and talk about, which are cited throughout the book, are again listed in the back for copying and giving to the partner to use. A list of possible priorities of choice is also provided to help partners decide whether or not their relationship could work long-term. For couples who have already begun or decided on an intercultural marriage, reading and doing this book may lessen their shock and frustrations and lead them into a more positive experience.

In the introduction to Ms. Shada Burks' The Soul Doctor Spiritual Tune Up, the author shares her mission and purpose with the reader. Her goal is to continue to grow in spiritual strength and to help others by providing a "spiritual tune-up" for Christians who might have grown weary in their faith when facing obstacles, struggles, and challenges of everyday life. Burks reminds the readers that the spiritual goal for every Christian is to grow in faith, and this handy book provides a fun and clever way to refocus those spiritual energies. Each chapter focuses on a different type of personality and gives guidance to those who have that disposition so that they can grow in their own faith. — Pacific Book Review

In Matthew 10:16, Christ advised His Apostles to be "wise" and "innocent" as they go out "in the midst of wolves." This book shows Christians how to be wise and innocent as they work among people who sometimes behave like wolves. Temptation, greed, dishonesty, and misguided ambition have always presented challenges for Christians in the workplace. Add secular bias, political correctness, and persecution to the mix, and the modern workplace becomes a foreboding environment for Christians to navigate. This is so much the case, many Christians wonder if it is still possible to earn a living without compromising their faith. Christians on the Job does more than demonstrate that Christians can stand firm when confronted with faith-related dilemmas in the workplace. It also demonstrates how to go about it. Using concepts illustrated with real-life examples, steps to implement in specific situations, life application questions, and resources for going deeper, Dr. Goetsch draws a clear map to ensure Christians can find their way and thrive on the job.

The most enduring success principles for the workplace have roots in Scripture. In a world that increasingly endorses moral relativism, secular humanism, political correctness, and anti-Christian bias, employers still cry out for personnel who are honest, dependable, selfless, and diligent—personnel who solve problems rather than cause them, prevent conflict rather than incite it, seek responsibility instead of running from it, work to improve the team rather than pursuing their own agendas, prevent stress rather than instigate it, and win the trust and respect of their coworkers in spite of differences in worldviews. Christian Women on the Job provides twelve specific strategies that will help women excel by overcoming the hindrances they face at work. Karen Moore, bestselling author of devotional and prayer books, shares encouraging words and inspiring prayers and thoughts.

Our life's journey takes us through many different valleys and atop many mountains! We must completely trust God to guide us in each part of these journeys. This book "Inspirational Messages on Life's Journey" has been in the works for ten years. Little did I know when God spoke to me and told me to start writing and sending out monthly newsletters through our ministry, Sweet Aroma Ministry, that one day the articles would be compiled into a book. The articles were inspired by the different life's journey, we have experienced when we were atop the mountains or deep in the valleys. One can only speak and write, what one knows and experiences. My prayer for each of you is that somewhere hidden in the recesses of this book, you discover yourself. I pray one of my experiences will enable you to find guidance and understanding in your next step in your lifes journey.
