Believing that prayer changes lives and situations, and believing that prayer is the most important service she can do for anyone, in 1989, author Priscilla Flory enlisted family and friends to join her in praying for widows and orphans around the world. In Going with God, she shares an endearing and heartfelt collection of personal letters penned to her faithful prayer partners. Spanning nearly three decades, the letters cover a variety of topics: some are whimsical and some are sobering. All of them are personal and all point to the loving heavenly Father who is the ultimate love of Flory's life. The letters follow Flory and her husband, Tom, as they traveled the world doing God's work for more than two decades. Going with God offers insight into Flory's journeys in Belarus, Peru, Rwanda, South Africa, and Swaziland. Her stories and illustrations show how God has powerfully and faithfully worked in her life.

Judge Atticus Zenas has seen too much from his front-row seat in a Lexington, Kentucky family court. For ten years he has watched the slow-motion death of marriage. He has seen families fall apart, destroyed by abuse, neglect, drugs, divorce, crime, cruelty and indifference. As he struggles every day in court to pick up the pieces and protect helpless children, he is on the ragged edge of falling apart himself. This novel is drawn from real life. The tragedy of fatherlessness. The hazards of co-habitation. The damage to children. The casual ease of drive-through divorce. And the sadness that God's greatest gift to mankind - marriage -- is in alarming decline. Amidst the daily chaos of family court, "Judge Z" takes a journey of discovery to find the lost meaning of marriage-as God's best metaphor for His relationship with us. Through bizarre court cases, law school classes, Sundays at a country church, lessons from a wise mother, a trip to India, and a trial that could destroy his career, he asks the question that confronts America: Is marriage "irretrievably broken"? The surprising answer is cause for hope.

Golf's gracious do-over, a mulligan, was the beginning of Paul's own second chance. Guided by the wisdom and advice of an old pr...
