Brad Martin is devastated when he is purportedly diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. A virile man in his early thirties now facing his own mortality, Brad revisits his abbreviated life with soul-searching truthfulness. Now is the time for him to address the transgressions of his past and the admonitions of the present.

Our most important battles are not always with the 'giants out there'--those external challenges which we all face. The greatest battles are often within ourselves. Too often, we diminish our own potential in ministry, business, and in life. Shane Stanford and Brad Martin frame their powerful book on one of the most well-known and well-loved stories in history: David and Goliath. We all feel like the seemingly powerless, scrawny boy David sometimes. And we all must face “giants”—those challenges that threaten to overwhelm us in ministry, work-life, and in our personal lives. Five Stones is a series of clear and compelling lessons. Each lesson arms the reader with practical and powerful tools of self-discovery, so that the reader’s own liabilities, opportunities, convictions, and capabilities are revealed. Like modern-day Davids, readers will leave this book empowered to conquer challenges, in ministry and in life, with clear-eyed confidence and well-grounded hope.

Grateful to have Brad alive, Bailey tries to make his dream her own. The lighthouse is beautiful, but the cha...
These are science fiction tales served up with a slice of lemon and a dash of bitters. In one novelette, a rivalry between two astronauts over a woman eventually results in the breaking of all bonds of space and time as we know them.

And in a series of stories, there is perhaps the physically most attractive woman ever created, the ravishing Pam. She loves her astronaut, but there is one great problem that keeps separating them. You decide if these offbeat stories should survive!
